Was elated to see this.
However, cannot get it to work the way it looks on screen, esp the way the 'Section' is aligned, and also the content on the slide does not show at all.
What is the max width and height of tabs?
Can we see a pdf?

Hi,

I assume this is aimed at me?

The installation file came with a PDF. Once installed just click on TOOLS>EXTENSION MANAGER, locate the extension and click on "Getting Started". If you can't do that for some unknown reason navigate to your My Documents folder and locate the WYSIWYG Web Builder/system/extensions folder and the PDF is in there with the extension.

Thanks for the prompt reply. Located and read the PDF, yet need a few answers.

1 The height of the panel / tab refuses to rise or reduce beyond the default 200 px, no matter whether I change it in the Properties of the extension or also in the Properties Manager simultaneously.
If the height is raised beyond 200 px, then the background colour is no longer visible, that is all. The picture does not increase over 200 px in height. If the picture is reduced ( I reduced it to 100 px)
even then the panel shows a 200 px height, the background colour taking up the deficit. The length is adjustable, no problems about that.

2 The section header and the other content inserted with the HTML Text Box take up position below the image, in the left hand bottom corner. My Image was 186 px, so only part of the section header
was visible. When I reduced its font weight,the other content became only partially visible. How can I get it in the upper portion as shown in the demo?

Apologies - I missed one of the variables in the extension (doh!) that manages the tab image and sliding content areas. I have updated the extension and uploaded again. Also added a .uwxb version as well.

I suspect the newer version will overcome both issues. Let me know.

1 The height of the tab has become adjustable. Thanks.

2 If I select an image for "Tab Image" then the sliding content text automatically goes at the bottom.
If I do not select a Tab Image but insert the same image using the HTML textbox, then the text can be positioned above or below the image too.

3 Actually, I was looking for an effect somewhat like this http://www.armagost.com/zaccordion/ or http://tympanus.net/Tutorials/ElegantAccordion/ which are free.
