Hi 022 MASI students,

     Yesterday's handout included the term for the icon that refers to the
handle on the web object image:

     6. Select the slice, hotspot, or button that covers the trigger area
        (the original image) and place the pointer over the
                                                            behavior handle.
                                                            ---------------
        The pointer changes to a hand.

             -------------------
     7. Drag the behavior handle for the trigger slice or hotspot to
             -------------------     the target slice you created in step 4.


     The behavior handle is the source of a line called the behavior line
     that extends from the center of the trigger (the UNI or ISU or UI
     button) to the upper-left hand corner of the target slice (the frame
     #2 or frame #3 or frame #4 that has a rectangular slice around the
     UNI Panther or the ISU Cyclone or the Iowa Hawkeye image that was
     imported to that Frame 2 or 3 or 4.

     Swap Image is what you do next in the Swap Image dialog box.

     It all started by the dragging of the BEHAVIOR HANDLE.

     The behavior handle looks like a crosshairs or a plus symbol enclosed
     in a circle.  It was the term I was not able to remember or recall
     yesterday.  See yesterday's handout, the side:

     ----------------------------
     Creating a disjoint rollover
     ----------------------------
                                                 B        H
     BH = BeHavior Handle     behavior handle    behavior handle
          - -      -          - -                -        -

     What is a slice?   What is a frame?   What is a target image?

     What is the Frames panel in Fireworks?

     The reading assignment is posted at the 1st URL, which is to read
        chapter four of the textbook.

     You might wish to look at chapter five too, especially the section
        on Applying Live Filters - pages 142-145.

        Live Filters were used to make the buttons behavior more
        interesting for the UNI and ISU and UI buttons OVER states.
        Glows, Drop Shadows, Blurs on either or both the button image
        itself or the text (caption) portion of the button.
