Creating scrollbar images
In web design, scrollbars are frequently unpopular because their
traditional appearance is unattractive. Java scrollbars (JDK 1.0.2)
are even worse - clumsy blocks with limited configurability. In response to
this, we created our own system, allowing you to totally
redesign your own scrollbars (or borrow from us) and turn them into an artistic component
of your web design.
All of the sliding
menu applets use user-configurable scrollbars built from elements contained
in external graphics files with a standard format. The standard format makes
these scrollbars fully portable between applets, and we have a growing
collection of scrollbar graphics ready and waiting to be fed easily into
your applet. While the graphics are standard, the functionality of the
scrollbars varies between the applets.
The scroll graphics file is a collection of six smaller
images which are segmented and reconstructed within
the applet. The six images are exactly square, aligned
horizontally in the source graphic, and separated by one
pixel (this is useful for using a contrasting colour
to mark the edges of the images).
Reconstruction of the scrollbar by the applet observes
the standard transparency index of the applet, allowing
the sliders to have special shapes. From
left to right, the images are combined with the following
functions:
- The top of the (vertical) scrollbar (flipped to left for horizontal scrolling)
- The slider for the (vertical) scrollbar
- The slider for the horizontal scrollbar, if present
- A filler square only required with both vertical and horizontal scrolling
- The bottom of the (vertical) scrollbar (flipped to right for horizontal scrolling)
- A background image that is tiled along the scrollbar for whatever length is required
