Question Help needed: How to make "round corners"?



Can somebody explain how to make with WebPlus X6 "round corners" at the header or panels like here on this website:
http://www.symphonymusic.co.uk/
(website out of the thread: "Show your WebPlus X6 created sites here").

Greets and thanks from Germany!

Welcome to the forums.

Select the rectangle quickshape and adjust the small node on the bounding area or on the Context Toolbar, choose Corner Radius.

Thanks for the welcome and thanks again for your infos.

The only problem left is: How to round the corners of a picture as a panel? Or how to use a picture as background of a panel with round corners?

I wanted to make a picture/panel like here:
http://www.shropshirehomefinder.co.uk/

I tested some functions - like trying to import a picture in a quickshape-rectangle and so on - but I got not the right result...

Btw: I do not know anything about using html-code. Building a website is a brand-new thing for me.

To round the corners of a picture, place a quickshape rectangle over the top and move the slider to the left of the rectangle down to round its corners. Select both the picture and the rectangle and use 'Format' > 'Drawing' > 'Crop to Shape'.

(I am assuming you want to round the corners of a picture, not to round the corners of a panel)

Thanks for your and Micks (by PM) fast and good help!

The remaining problem on my side was my fault to find the function at the right place.
I looked for "Drawing" in the german "Format"-menu... the first thing I found was "Bild" which means picture and could also stand for "Drawing", but under that "Bild"-point there was no german expression for "crop to shape"...

After a while of searching around I found also in the "Format"-menu the german word "Zeichnung" which means drawing (in a more direct meaning as "Bild") and under this point there was the function "An Form zuschneiden" (crop to shape). Yeah!

Good to see all the helpings if someone has a problem!

Have a nice day!

Hi All,

Can somebody tell me how to make the whole panel, with the drop-down links?, at http://www.symphonymusic.co.uk/
Also where can I find different examples of panels?

Regards

John L

How do you get a panel to appear on that page?

John,

Please describe what you are trying to do.

I have not been able to get any panel with drop down links to appear on the site you linked to.
