When you choose a Xara web page template, two named layers—
MouseOver
and
MouseOff
—are automatically created for each page in the document, and the first page
is automatically named index.
Don't
change the names or spelling of the layers and don't
rearrange the stack order of
MouseOver
and
MouseOff
. Xara uses this naming and structure to generate
Rollover buttons and you'll mess up the code Xara generates by changing these.
Xara also automatically sets the ruler unit to pixels and the
ruler origin (the 0, 0 point) to the upper-left corner to conform
to HTML specifications.
