[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1209611, member: 141969"] One quirk that I noticed when trying different mark-up is that the result depends on where the ANIMATION tag is placed. The ANIMATION tag [i]should[/i] apply to both the background and the menu buttons, and therefore it [i]ought[/i] to be placed just inside the "actiongroup" control. But if you place it there, the slide still fails, but it fails differently. The background slides off as expected, [b]but the buttons disappear immediately[/b], and the list text still overlays the sliding background. To avoid the buttons disappearing immediately, the ANIMATION tag must be moved from the "actiongroup" control to the "image" control for the background, and [b]repeated[/b] in the "group" tag for the buttons. This is how I have coded it in the XML that I posted earlier. This prevents the buttons disappearing immediately when the side menu is closed, but you still get the list text overlaying the background. The fade animation suffers the same quirks, so this is not limited to slide. :( -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
