The filemod module allows you to create custom pages in the gallery. You can either load your own SWF, or use a built-in module like the "photoblinds" effect to create an intro page. To see a few examples, goto our demo gallery https://www.photo.gallery/demo/x2/ and view the examples under Various Examples -> filemods.

Good question - We were thinking of providing a slideshow module option for the filemod. In the meantime, you coulse try the slieshow option from V1, but it might not work properly ... One of the main problems, is that it would have problems aligning itself to the middle of the screen.

Please have some patience, and we will provide a slideshow option!

If i create an photoblinds effect on an folder i'm getting an fullscreen photoblinds effect. even if i set it to frame.
Parameters are: image=content/Amber/IMG_2631.JPG&title=Amber&frame=true&align=M

I think calling it "fullscreen" is wrong. Photoblinds simply loads the original image, and does not resize it downwards(unlike the general gallery). I would suggest you use only images for photoblinds that you can be sure are limited within the stage. They should be quite small so that they just come across as a "teaser" to the visitor, and they don't interfere with menu or controls in any way.

Since your photoblinds looks like its "fullscreen", you must have very large images in that specific folder. How large are those images? Let me also make one thing clear here: Photoblinds is a module that sets an effect on an image - It doesn't resize, scale or do anything with the actual file that is loaded, except for applying the effect. You can not

I think you got the address wrong - It should be like this:
http://gallery.lubas.at/#/content/welcome/

It starts on your welcome page ... Although I don't see why that is required, as it starts on the welcome page without the #address.

Cool feature, Karl! Might just solve the "startimage" question I had before!

Is there a way to move the text off of the image? How 'bout changing text font?

Thanks!

You can edit a few settings for the filemod in config -> modules.filemod. Amongst other things, you can turn off the text, or align it above the image instead. The same parameters(and a few more) can also be forwarded directly from the "parameters" field in admin.
https://www.photo.gallery/v2docs/articles/filemod/

You can also change the text formatting(including font) by editing your CSS file. Locate the following items:

.filemod {}
.filemod_title {}
.filemod_description {}

Thanks, Karl... it's all coming together now!

We need to see a "sitemenu" first... just kidding (wince... don't hurt me!)

Hi

I have a problem with the photoblinds feature. Is it possible to set a "Target=_..."-attribute to the "click"-action? Each time i click on the start-image (created with photoblinds) on my gallery, it opens the link in a new window. But I want to open it in the same window. (target=_self")

Thanks for a great gallery!

Bandyt · 28 Nov 2008, 13:51

Ok, my parameters were wrong... now the click-functions is working.

But i have an integrated-version of Imagevue in my HTML-Site and then it's not possible to use the "click". If I open the gallery directly in my browser, everything is fine.

It's the same Problem in this gallery:
https://www.photo.gallery/decens/mygalle ... t/b_Fancy/

Any ideas?

Do you mean click=togglefullscreen?

That doesn't work in that embed example because it requires the parameter
allowFullScreen: true
(View source of the default index.phpto see how this is embedded with the SWFObject)

film915 · 01 Dec 2008, 23:24

I'm really enjoying this feature, but can there be a way to align the title text independently from the description text? I.e., align the title above/left of the image and the description on the bottom right?
