LVHues Readme
lvhues applet 3.0 - by Cromoteca
lvhues is an applet that shows an image changing its hue continuously. Note that is convenient to set the applet dimensions equal to the image dimensions. To use this applet you need to put in your web site both lvhues.class and lv1.class.
This is an example:
Look at another example that shows what happens using two images: the image itself and a mask.
You can configure these parameters:
| Parameter Name | Default Value | Short Description |
| Image | (none) | The name of the image file |
| Mask | (none) | The name of the mask file (if used) |
| Period | 15000 | Time to perform a complete hue rotation (in milliseconds) |
| ReduceColors | 0 for GIF files, 3 for JPEG files | A coefficient that reduces the number of colors in the image, allowing better performance. Normally you can accept the default setting, but it's a good idea to reduce it to "0", "1" or "2" for small JPEGs. The max. value is "7". (You can also use numbers from "-1" to "-7" that will darken the image.) |
| Link | (none) | The URL to be shown when the users clicks over the applet |
| Target | _self | Destination frame for the link |
| Separator | , | A character used as separator for parameters that specify multiple characteristics (e.g. Font) |
| Font | Dialog,0,12 | Text font. The format is: type + separator + style + separator + size where type can be "Courier", "Dialog", "Helvetica" or "TimesRoman"; style can be "0" (Normal), "1" (Italic), "2" (Bold) or "3" (BoldItalic); size is an integer |
| Background | 000000 | Background color. The format is "RRGGBB" (similar to HTML) |
| Foreground | FFFFFF | Text color |
| HandCursor | Yes | Uses the hand-shaped cursor over the links or not. The value can be "Yes" or "No" |
| SleepTime | 10 | Short pause between the animation frames (in milliseconds) |
| Text | Loading... | Text to display while loading the image |
| Credits | (none) | Please set it to "applet by www.cromoteca.com" as a credit for the author. Thank you! (This is required if you use this applet on the web, otherwise it won't work) |
Note: the names of their parameters and their values are case-insensitive, with the exception of the font names ("Courier", "Dialog", "Helvetica" and "TimesRoman") and of the Credits value.
