I have imported a publication (completed in Opus Pro) to Opus 04 with SR2.

I have a problem with picture objects using the zoom transition which didn't occur before (with Opus Pro).

I have set up a picture to zoom nicely when I do a mouse-over a hot spot. When a mouse-over event occurs I do a show picture action. The picture properties have been set so that the transition 'Zooms centre-out' occurs 'On show'. 'Exlusive' is set. The picture now has intermittent thin black lines either on bottom or sides which makes the zoom effect look really poor.

Does anyone know of a solution to this?

First thing that comes to mind is a posting from awhile ago that said you need to have an even number of pixels both horizontally and vertically (Example: 100x102, not 99x101).

Try that and let us know if it really works.

Fred,

Thanks for the idea. I've finally solved it and it did relate to the number of pixels.

The first problem was that after import into Opus 04, the background of every picture was set to black.

This then left faint lines on zooming. These were removed by adding 1 to the pixel width of each image object that was affected. It didn't have to be an even number, however. Sometimes an odd number solved the problem.

I was actually doing a zoom transition on a frame, not the image object itself (contrary to what I first said!). Within the frame was the image object and a text object. Didn't investigate further, but I suspect that it is something to do with the ratio of frame size to image size?.

In any case you were on the right track - playing with the pixel width solved the problem. Thanks.
