3 little problems

Hello everyone !

I've just purchased Imagevue, and nearlly all of it works just fine ^__^
however, i'm finding 3 little problems i'd like to solve :

1/ the vertical images thumbnails show only the middle of the images... how can you make the whole image appear in the thumbnail ?
(edit : if you check out my website now, you'll see that the vertical images' thumbnails work as they should... but that's because i created them in photoshop for the time being.. i'd still like to know how this can be done automatically... thanks !)

2/ I wanted to add it to my website layout ; it's made of tables.
If I add the imagevue gallery in a table cell, it simply won't show. So I had to put it underneath the table. That would be fine, but the prolem is, it leaves a big space on the top and bottom of the gallery (i think it's because of the background image... but i've set that to false since i don't want one... nevertheless, it keeps the space for it around the gallery...)
If anyone knows how i could place the gallery just underneath my menu, and have the copyright line just under the gallery, i'd be really thankful !!

3/ that's the one that's the least bothering, but while i'm here, why not ask hey ? the barcol attribute doesn't seem to work... if i set it to anything else than "false", i becomes gray and the word "menu" doesn't appear anymore... (plus, I can't seem to get the text gray like the rest of the website, i don't know why...)
That third point isn't very important though... it's just to make it look better xD

but the first two questions would really need an answer, please !

thanks in advance !

kirsty.

1/ For more info about this, see: viewtopic.php?t=83

2/ I have the same problem on my own site, no idea how to solve it....maybe someone else has an idea?

3/ To set the barcol you must have 2 colors. One for the bar and one for the text on this bar: https://www.photo.gallery/support/docs/292

#2 If you are placing the gallery in your own table, or in any block size area in your custom website, then you are integrating it at a set/static size, right?

You should be able to integrate it at any size, but you must then specify the dimension attributes in the SWFobject. Something like this:
Code
var so = new SWFObject("imagevue.swf", "imagevue", "700", "550", "6", "#FFFFFF");
See the values 700 and 550 I have changed from the default 100% and 100%. Its not because of the background image, its simply because the flash is trying to extend 100%. Try to integrate into a table again, and post back here if you are experiencing further problems and I will look into the code. Also remember, Imagevue requires minimum dimensions of 700x500 unless you are only using the slideshow module which is freesize.

#3 regarding your barcol, I see in your config.ini its set to barcol=false. Also, keep in mind the barcol takes two color values. One for the color of the bar, and one for the text that displays upon it. More info here https://www.photo.gallery/support/docs/292

In this example, you can see the barcol changing: http://crystaldreams.perso.cegetel.net/ ... F00,111111
