 | 4. Animation | |
4.1 Step
When sub-menus are defined for an eXpand applet, the sub-menus will be displayed or hidden depending on where the mouse-pointer is moved to. This display/hide animation is automatic, but you can control how smoothly the animation is performed through the Stepparameter value.
This value can be in the range 1-1200. A value of 1 will be very smooth (but slow) whereas a value of 1200 would be virtually instantaneous but with no visible animation.

4.2 Speed
The speed of the sub-menu animation and event handling is performed through the Speed parameter value. This value can be in the range 50-500. A value of 50 will be fast whereas a value of 500 would be very slow. In most cases, we recommend leaving it at the default speed of 50 (simply omit it from the list of parameter values).
