Hi all,
In my application I have 4 panels. Each of which have a "mini-app" such as a calculator, sticky notes, etc... My GUI could use improvement so I had an idea of making the Border of a panel glow where if your mouse enters or focuses on the panel or its children
the border glows.
I have not yet worked with glowing type elements and am not sure how I would do this. I just want the border to glow like the Start button at the bottom left corner of your screen in Windows 7. The start button glows on mouseover and focus. To my knowledge
I believe they just use two images, but how did they use the animation for "glow effect"?
Basically, I just want to learn how to make the <span style="text-decoration:underline
border glow if possible.
Thanks,
- Jordan
