Placing a logo as background over images like that is not a native part of the Imagevue gallery ... The Imagevue gallery has in fact been optimized to use as much of the screen as possible for images and interface, and if you add stuff to the background, it will eventually be overlaid on small screens. The only option would be to make images scale down more ... how else can you have room for both on the screen at the same time?

You would need to adjust the image.image.margin setting, but it seems you have already done that? Problem is, you have also enabled the original_optimized setting, which attempts to show the image at full size if possible (at the cost of possibly overlapping elements). You would need to turn this setting off ...

I thought no matter what happens, you always view the original image down-scaled to fit/crop to stage...?
So what is the point of having a setting to "Display original optimised"?

What is, or has been,"optimised" about the photo??


For example
Thumbs 200 x 150, yep no problem.
Photos 1000 x 800, appears fine.

If I upload larger photos, e.g. 1900 x 1500 they won't display at 100%. Instead they are displayed at 70% (for example).

How does "Original Optimised" change this, or what does it do to make things better?
Instead of 70% (fit to stage/screen) does it display at 100%, causing the photo to not display in its entirety?

Thanks :)

Good question, let me explain this setting ... The setting could have been renamed to "if-image-fits-inside-screen-then-show-it-at-full-size-even-if-it-overlaps-interface-elements". Basically we made this setting because an image which is neither scaled up or down, always looks slightly better at full size because it is displaying at pixel-perfection. When the browser scales images, it will blur the image slightly and create artifacts ...

If this setting is on, it will prioritize showing the image at its original size if the image fits within the viewport, at the cost of possibly overlapping interface elements. If the image is larger than the viewport anyway, it will just scale down normally to fit nicely within the margins like default. If this setting is off, it will simply always scale the image "smartly" to fit within the interface and settings. It will not try to display the image at its original size, even if the image does fit within the viewport.
