I ve made a long horizontal frame (about 12 times the length of the actual page) which is the same height as the page. Into this I have inserted another frame of the same height but only half the length. The second frame is draggable but set to 'restricted to parent object'. I've done this to emulate the sideways page sliding we see so much of on ipads etc. It seems to work perfectly but if I publish for the web as plexus and view on a computer that does not have Opus 8 installed (but does have the plugin) the sliding frame also moves vertically i.e beyond the limits of the stationary frame which is meant to stop any vertical movement.
So I'm suggesting that there is a problem when it relies on the plugin. Not sure about this but that seems to be why it runs fine on two computers I have that have Opus 8 installed but not when the plugin is relied upon. In both cases I am viewing the publication in the latest version of IE.
I have also tried 'fixing object to page' for the container frame, but this doesn't seem to have helped. Is this the correct use of 'fixing object to page' or am I misunderstanding this property?

Any thoughts?

Nick

I think this has been raised before. Anyway, just checked - must be a bug - it doesn't work. Best to email DW. It can be done with script if urgent.

[EDIT] There is another work around - you can replace the npilm500.dll from the plug-in directory (Chrome / Firefox) from the Opus Pro machine over the one installed by the Plexus Plug-in as that's what out-of-date.
