Hello, Madcappers!
Does anyone know if Flare offers a method of creating an image map aside from right-clicking on the image and selecting "Image Map"?
Long story short: my styles are not jiving with Flare. I need to apply a certain class to a div wrapping the image map before I create the image map, and when doing so, the image map decides to disappear from the xml editor. So, if there's a way for me to create an image map without right-clicking on the actual image, that'd be an easy solution and I would be very happy!
Please, someone, anyone, be my savior!
Create an image map without right-clicking
Re: Create an image map without right-clicking
Hello everyone,
I've been reading the forum for a while and found some ideas and solutions for my own project, but now I thought I might as well start posting.
If you can't click the image itself, can you click the block of the <img>-tag on the left of the XML-Editor? From there you can also accress the same context-menu with the option to create an ImageMap.
Best Regards
Reiner

Re: Create an image map without right-clicking
Are you saying that your image is wrapped in a div and that - after you set the class on the div - if you then right-click on the image you don't see the option to create an image map? If so, it's possible that you still have the div selected and you're seeing the context menu for the div. You could try explicitly selecting something outside of the div first and then returning to the image.
Or have I completely misunderstood the problem? Of course, you could always create an image map manually in the text editor but life's a bit short for that.

Hey RRemmele, that's a good idea. Unfortunately the actual image "block" does not appear on the side. The div shows up, but not the image.... I don't know why :S.
jjw, one problem is that I'm not able to right click on the image at all because it disappears. We think it has something to do with a max-width style, but we aren't entirely sure at this time (it'll take some fiddling to figure it out). And yes, indeed, life is quite short for doing an image map directly in the code, haha.

Re: Create an image map without right-clicking
Can you post the formatting of the div that causes the image to vanish? Perhaps that will provide some clues.

Re: Create an image map without right-clicking
Possibly silly suggestion, but have you looked at the blocks at the top of the screen? I sometimes find my img blocks sitting up there instead of on the side.spatte22 wrote:Hey RRemmele, that's a good idea. Unfortunately the actual image "block" does not appear on the side.
