Anfy Mosaic - Copyright (C) by Fabio Ciucci 1998 This applet can execute a tiling transition among any identically sized GIF or JPG images. This applet is based on original code by Ibon Tolosana that is used under license. The images used as samples are by Fabio Ciucci. The following 3 ".class" files must be uploaded: mosaic.class, Lware.class and anfy.class. Insert the tag in your html document as follows to add this applet to your page (Comments after the ";" symbol are code explanations and acceptable min/max values. They are not part of the applet language): ; Name, Width, Height ; Registration code (if you have it) ; Reglink opened in new frame? ; Name of new frame for reglink ; resolution (1-8) ; Image 1 to load ; Image 2 to load ; Image 3 to load ; link 1 ; link 2 ; link 3 ; statusbar msg on image 1 ; statusbar msg on image 2 ; statusbar msg on image 3 ; pause (value = milliseconds). ; Num. of horizontal tiles ; Num. of vertical tiles ; Num. steps for tile rotation (8 .. 32) ; Optional background image ; Red in background (0 .. 255) ; Green in background (0 .. 255) ; Blue in background (0 .. 255) ; Optional image over applet ; Over image X offset ; Over image Y offset ; Memory deallocation delay ; Task priority (1..10) ; Min. milliseconds/frame for sync Sorry, your browser doesn't support Java ; Msg in no java browsers --------- The following instructions detail how to change parameters: The images (GIF and/or JPG) can be of any size, but all image dimensions must be identical. Attempting to change the credits parameter will disable the applet. To activate the reg parameters read the shareware registration notes. In the "regcode" parameter, place the registration code you purchased from the author. If the code is correct and the applet is run from the registered domain name, you can use "link" parameters to link to a URL when the applet is "clicked". If you set "regnewframe" to "YES", you can specify a specific frame location for the reglink: "_blank" : To load the link in a new blank unnamed browser window. "_self" : To load the link into the same window the applet occupies. "_parent" : To load the link into the immediate FRAMESET parent. "_top" : To load the link into the top body of the window. You can also set a custom frame name, such as "myframe1". With the "overimg" parameter you can specify the name of an image that will be painted over the applet. The best options are transparent GIF images. NOTE: Animated GIF images are supported, but will be displayed as animated only on latest browsers (Netscape 4 and Explorer 4 or newer). With "overimgX" and "overimgY" you can center the image over the applet area. Applet size is determined by "res": "res=1" shows the graphic at natural size, "res=2" shows it at double size, etc. It is important to update the width and height tags,otherwise the applet will not display properly on browsers. You must set the applet size a bit greater than images size, since tiles rotation needs extra space. The Anfy Java wizard calculates automatically the extra offset needed. The number of images to have in the tiling slideshow is unlimited, but the minimum is 2. If you want to tile between just 2 images, type: If you want to tile between 3 images, type: Repeat the code for each image. You can change the displayed message for each different image in the "statusmsg" code. "Statusmsg1" is the message displayed in the first image, "statusmsg2" the second image, etc. When you purchase and register the applet, the "link1","link2", etc. parameters will be enabled and this applet can become a mosaic banner as follows: You can place a URL link related to each image. The pause, in milliseconds, determines the "hold" time for images between the fades. With "tileswidth" and "tilesheight" you can change the number of horizontal and vertical tiles. With "tilesteps" (values from 8 to 32) you can change the rotation speed of tiles. With "backr", "backg" and "backb" parameters you can control the RED, GREEN and BLUE components of the background color. You can optionally load a background image, placing it's name on the "backimage" parameter. This image must be the same size as the applet if res=1. If it is res=2, it must be half the size of the applet, and so on.
