My question is:
How do I change the main menu font while in Flash? All I want is a common font like Arial to replace the default imageVue fonts.
I have had success changing the 'heading' font but cannot do the same for the main menu font.
Here is what I have done in Flash:
1) I open imagevue.fla, it asks me to choose a substitute font, I select Arial for all four 'unknown' fonts. I then close this window.
2) I then click on the layer called 'heading' and the heading text box is selected with a blue rectangle
3) I click on the heading text box in the template area and I highlite the word 'loading...'
4) I then change the font from (DesertDogHMK) to Arial in the property inspector
5) Now, if I export this file as imagevue.swf and upload it to my website, the heading does change to Arial and heading only looks great.
6) I have noticed that the main menu font has also changed to an illegible size and unrecognizable font that I did not seem to have control over. (see what I mean at www.malcolmbrown.net) I would have modified the main menu text box the same way as the heading font text box but it does not seem to be created in the same fashion because I am unable to find, select and highlite the main menu text box. I have played around with the 'new menu' layer because nothing else seems to highlite the main menu text box. I have selected every single layer to see which one relates to the main menu text box and cannot figure it out.
7) I have also changed the font name to Arial in all config.ini files under the [text] section on the bottom on the page. I have done this for config.ini, slideshowconfig.ini, slideshowimagevueconfig.ini and slideshowpopupconfig.ini to see if this made a difference.
Anybody figure this out?
Thanks,
