right, test this please!

http://www.stuartthorp.co.uk/VT/005.html

when you click the map button, and the map appears, there should be a nice button called 'you are here' in the middle of the building. But no, instead one of the other images, called 'terrace' (text_001) appears instead. The skin file is here:

http://www.stuartthorp.co.uk/VT/005.ggsk

As far as I can see, and this is after Thomas modded the file to change the 'hide map-container', the 'you are here' button is clearly within the map container, and so too is the 'text_001' (terrace) button that keeps appearing, but shouldn't - it should behave like alll the others and only appear with 'mouse over' action / command over the radar spots. So why is 'text_001' always there? HELP!

I'm supposed to be launching my new company at an exhibition next week and all I want to do is create a straight-forward skin / VT! And, I do not want to go back to either starting again, or going to Tourweaver!

When I reworked it didn't pay to much attention. I accidentally turned the wrong label to visible. Just uncheck the visible for "text_001" and check visible for "you are here" and the map is fixed. I wanted you to show a better way and not delivering a final skin....

In the second example you are hiding the "thumbnail_container" but you are not switching it to visible with the button.

easy when you know how - have fixed the first (Winery) example.

Not sure I understand exactly what you mean re: the second example. I've reworked it here: http://www.stuartthorp.co.uk/VT/default_branston_2.ggsk
Now the 'thumbnail_button', when pressed action calls for the 'thumbnail_container' in its entirity (not each individual element) - but doesn't work at all. The map button & container is like this and works..........help!

Hi
From what I can see you’re not putting the container around the thumbnails and your setting the thumbnails to not visible.

Place your thumbnails in the position you want in the skin, leaving them all visible. Highlight all the thumbnails and then go to elements in the skin editor and click “add container” This will put the container around all the thumbnails, which are still visible. Set the container to not visible and all the thumbnails will disappear. Set the thumbnails button to toggle the container visible. Job done. :D
Hope this helps.
What show you going to?
