Carousel Action w/ triggered discription

I’m a novice with freeway and I’m wirting the first time … Well here is what I want: I applied the carousel action on a stack of almost sixty picts. The action works perfectly. But now on mouse over I would like to get a individual discription coming up … (such as show/hide image) below the image frame. Does anybody have an idea how to make that? Thanks

You certainly used to be able to do this - I am not sure if the latest incarnation of tha eaction allows it but…..

Simply apply the rollover action to the image in the pane you wish to target default indigo mouseover 1

Creat the description layer on your page and apply the show/hide layer action to it and set it to be initially hidden restore yes target group indigo target no 1 and try it out

Thanks Dave for your quick answer. But unfortunately the carousel will not work anymore if I follow your advice :-(

It certainly works in earlier versions but the action has evolved and Walter is the guy to let us know if it is still doable

It works in my development version, but there are still some bugs in that. I would check to be sure that you are stacking all of your panes directly on top of one another. I know that there were instructions that said you could lay them out anywhere on the page or pasteboard, but I discovered a really bad bug with that. Until I release the next version, you must stack all panes directly on top of one another, group them, apply the Carousel action to the group, then group the Carousel with any controls (tabs or buttons).
