RandomActs was initially requested by club member, Robbie de Villier. Robbie requested a component that would load an image at random from a specified group, into one location on the web page. The aim was to keep the page looking fresh.

RandomActs does just that! Each image can also be linked, so it makes an ideal banner flipper as well. RandomActs uses javascript so there is no BIG delay typical of Java driven image flippers.

Getting started with RandomActs:

• Run the installation program. Check the box next to the version(s) of Fusion that you have installed on your machine (4/5/MX/7).
• Launch Fusion.
• If the coolmaps.com component toolbar is not visible choose View > Toolbars > Component Tools > coolmaps.com components.
• Select the RandomActs component and drag out an area on the page (this graphic does not appear on the published page).

The RandomActs properties now appears in Fusion's properties palette.

Choose random if you want one randomly selected image to display on the page.

Choose rotate if you want the images to rotate sequentially on the page in one location, setting the number of seconds between rotations.

Please note: If the first cell of your palette does not identify the version number then you are not using the most recent version of this component.
