Photo Gallery Forums

Hi all,

I am trying to move my old photo site to Imagevue and would like to replicate the way my current galleries work.

Here is an example of one of my galleries:

http://timash.com/gallery_p11.html

Specifically I want to:
1) Have the thumbnails appear in a grid when the gallery is clicked on from the menu.
2) If you click on any of the small thumbs, have the picture appear in a lightbox (as large as possible on the current screen)
3) Have controls on the lightbox to advance to the next and previous slides (not in slideshow mode though)

Can this be done? If so, what are the settings needed to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

This is already default behavior when you open a gallery, see example.

You can use Imagevues native lightbox function (which uses Colorbox). Simply go to admin -> settings -> image.image.click, check lightbox.

Unfortunately this is not currently possible, because lightbox normally gets code in html from a range of images. Since it is opened from a flash-gallery (not html), it does not get related images from a group. This will be possible in Imagevue X3.
