AniMenu is a 2-level vertical menu. First-level items can act as links or can contain a panel of second-level items. The second level is revealed either by clicking the caption or hovering over it: items below slide upward or downward. If you choose 'hover' mode, the hover-delay time can be set in milliseconds. AniMenu can also be used in 'text-sensitive' mode, looking and behaving like HTML links.A number of color and display parameters let you choose exactly how the captions and menu items should appear when unfocused, focused and clicked. Items can display a selector-bar or HTML-style underline on mouse hover. Captions and items can use gradient fills.
AniMenu can play separate click and release sounds for buttons and sub-items, and supports the Cool Focus Satellite system, allowing external images or text to be displayed elsewhere on the page (or even in a separate frame or window).
