Hi All,

Would like to place an invisible object on my page (over a graphic) which can act as a button/link to another page on my website.

Basically was looking for some kind of 'Transparency' slider, but don't seem to be able to find it.

I've a feeling I might be able to do this with Image Mapper, but thought there might be a simpler solution?

Thanks,

Bobby

Why not link the graphic.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

:) Just what I was thinking, too, Eric.
Bobby, select your graphic and click the Link icon in the top menu, that will give you all your link options.

Thanks guys, but the graphic is actually a full screen background frame, and I only want one part of it to be clickable.

Coffeecup has an application called ImageMapper just for this purpose. Using that you can make just a part of your image clickable. Check it out!

If you have photoshop you can copy your image then crop the part you want to use as a link and save that as a pic. Now in VSD add the original image and the new linking image and align the two as needed. Now link the partial image and your good to go. Here's a sample. Find the link.:)
