Eliminate White Space in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

On my site, I am using picture library slideshow web parts on two different pages, and one of them is giving me trouble with unwanted white space between the photos and the back, pause, forward control buttons (see photo below).
In an attempt to resolve this issue, I have tried numerous things. I have resized the width and height of the web part itself to many different sizes, but to not avail. I have cropped and resized all of the photos to be the exact same size of 300x200
pixels. I have used CSS to display the photos to their actual size rather than the standard preview size. With all of this in mind, my second photo library web part on another page works perfectly. This was white space problem was only an issue until
I resized/cropped the photos in that case. For this page, however, that solution is not working.
Does anyone have any clue as to how I can remove this unwanted white space?
Thank you!

Hi Stacey,
From your description, you would like to remove white space in picture library slideshow web parts. You used CSS to solve it however a web part still show white spaces.
Please press F12 and see if there is div tag in white space, if there is, try remove it.

In addition, try edit web part properties > Display with > choose No Title or Description.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

  • Remove empty space in Picture Library Slideshow web part

    I'm using Picture Library Slideshow web part in one of my pages. The web part itself is working fine, but I'm a bit annoyed by the white space the web part is consuming.
    The web part puts lots of empty space between the web part header and the picture and also to the bottom of the web part.
    The Slideshow web part generates the CSS on the fly, so I cannot really get a control of it cause it doesn't have any static CSS classes(that I know of, at least).
    How could I get rid of these white spaces?

    Hi Pekch,
    Thanks for your post.
    You can achieve this using JQuery.
    1.      
    Download
    JQuery to your SharePoint Server, and then add a Content Editor Web Part to the page;
    2.      
    View the source code using IE developer(Press F12), the code likes below:
    <td style="width: 195px; height: 213px;">
                    <div style="..." id="MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart_ctl00_m_g_ffa17524_ffa7_44e7_974c_1756a39257b9_cell">
                    </div>
    </td>
    3.      
    So now, you can find the control whose id is started with “MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart” using the JQuery Code below:
    jQuery('div[@id^=”MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart”]')
    4.      
    Remove the style of the “div” and his parent “td”. Because there is a “Width” attribute in both levels.

  • Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

    I am able to create a slide show via Picture Library Slideshow Web Part but the title and description will not show up. I have tried all the options but
    only the picture shows and not the picture title. I was hoping to have the picture title appear below the image. Can this be fixed or is it something I have to do without?
    Thank you.

    Hi Sarah,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show Title of the image under the image in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part.
    I recommend to edit the Picture Library Slideshow Web Part and select Title only below image under Display with and make sure that the picture in the picture library has value in Title field.
    Best regards.

  • How can I fix the image size in a "Picture Library Slideshow Web Part"

    When I upload images to be used in the Slideshow Web Part they become skewed because they are different sizes. Is there a way to fix this besides uploading images that are all the same size? 
    Thanks,
    Kathleen

    http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:bfUcFkD_bxgJ:spcodes.blogspot.com/2012/08/display-slide-show-images-within-fixed.html+&cd=4&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=in
     Display Slide Show Images within fixed size
    The Picture Library Slide Show Web Part show the images stored in a picture library with slide show effect.
    This slide show web part displays the images with it's original size. Due to this the web part changes its size according to the image size. If we want the slide show to run within the specific size on the page then we need to control the size of the images
    to the fixed length during runtime.
    To achieve this we need to add the CEWP above the picture Library Slide Show web part & insert the following script in that web part.
    <style type="text/css">
    .ms-WPBody TD {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: auto !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-WPBody TD DIV {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-WPBody TD IMG {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 260px !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    190px !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px; align: center
    .s4-wpcell-plain {
        PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
    auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
    .ms-PartSpacingVertical {
        MARGIN-"color:#783f04;font-family:'Courier New',Courier,monospace;" />}
    .style1 {
        COLOR: #808080
    }</style>
    We can fix the height & width of the image in the .ms-WPBody TD IMG css.

    How to display original images in SlideShow web part
    Step 1. Save below JavaScript code to file, for example in SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt and upload it to SiteAssets Library
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function SlideshowObjectInitializer() {
    ShowPic = (function(ShowPicOrig) {
    return function() {
    var ssObj = arguments[0]; //SlideShow object
    var curPicIdx=ssObj.index; //current picture index
    ShowPicOrig.apply(this, arguments); //call original ShowPic
    //apply some changes to display original picture in SlideShow control
    ssObj.image.src = ssObj.linkArray[curPicIdx]; //display original image instead of web image
    //change picture & container size to auto instead of fixed (by default web image size is used)
    ssObj.image.setAttribute('height','100%');
    ssObj.image.setAttribute('width','100%');
    var cell = ssObj.cell;
    cell.style.width = 'auto';
    cell.style.height = 'auto';
    cell.style.display = '';
    var pcell = ssObj.cell.parentNode;
    pcell.style.width = 'auto';
    pcell.style.height = 'auto';
    })(ShowPic);
    ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(SlideshowObjectInitializer, 'imglib.js');
    </script>
    Step 2. Add CEWP on page where Slideshow web part is located and in the Content Editor tool pane, under Content Link, type
    /SiteAssets/SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt.

  • Picture Library Slideshow Web Part - Is it possible to switch between two image librarys in one slideshow

    In our office we have a screen at the front desk that runs a PP slideshow showing welcome messages to guests arriving.
    SharePoint may not be the solution, but the overall objective is to find a way to have a library of X number of photos (say the library size is 30 images) and a separate library of X number of welcome messages (usually ~5 images).
    We want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from the 1st pool and then play the images in the 2nd Pool.
    Let me know if you have heard of a solution similar to this. Thanks!

    Hi Twirlz03,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display teo picutre libraries in a picture slideshow web part in SharePoint 2010.
    By default, one Picture Slideshow web part only display images fron one specifical picutre library, it is unable to apply for multiple picture libraries.
    You can try to utilize Content Query web part to aggregate picture items from the site collection or site. However, you mean that you want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from first library and then play the images in the second library, I’m afriad
    that it is hard to achieve it.
    More information about aggregating picture items , please refer to section 4 of the link below:

    Hello,
    You can try to populate from  Webpart Galleries .
    1 ) Go to Site collection Settings > Under Galleries > Web parts 
    2)  Web Part Library > Library Tools > Documents > Click on New document
    3) A pop up will open > in that search for 
    Web Part Type Name :Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.PictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart
    File Name :PictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart
    4) if you found that Click on Populate to Gallery > Then Check in the Web Part Gallery..

  • How to Set Item limit for Picture library Slideshow webpart in SharePoint 2013

    Picture library Slideshow webpart is using the default view "All Pictures" and if I set a filter condition in the view, the images are displaying based on it but if I set an Item limit as "5" or any number in the "All Pictures"
    view it is not reflecting in the slideshow webpart.
    Any suggestion would be a great help as the users want to see only the latest 5 images in the slideshow webpart.
    Thanks & regards,
    Asha

    I don't think so there is any way to set a item count limit on Picture Library Slideshow web wart.
    Web Part setting only allows to provide library and View, In List view also you can only set Item Limit to be shown on the 'List View'. Slideshow web part take all the items in the list and show, view is only used to provide which field needs to be shown.
    There could be 2 options:
    - Write a JavaScript to limit the count, and in the view add Sorting by 'Created' date. You can get some example on how to modify "Library Slideshow web part" javascript here: http://blog.vgrem.com/2013/04/27/beyond-the-slideshow-web-part-capabilities-in-sharepoint-2010/
     This link does not have solution of what you want, but it gives a very well idea on what you can look and modify. It will not be that straight forward for sure.
     - Create a custom webpart, it could be a easier approach. As there are many slideshow Javascript library present, and through code you will just need do a query and pull data from library with required number of items to be shown.

  • Insert .oam files that scale without leaving white space below them inside a web page

    Hi All,
    Does anyone have a way to get .oam files to scale inside a web page without leaving all the white space below them when they are scaled in a fluid web page design?
    I've done this in other web pages without using .oam files and inserting the whole html file and stage, but I need this to work with multiple areas inside a web page for which .oam files seem to be the only solution.
    Thanks for your time, any solutions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hi Meenakshi,
    Thanks for your reply, the blog tutorial you're referencing however uses the HTML files and doesn't use .oam files, which is my problem, as I need to insert more than one edge element on the page.
    Alternatively if there is a way to insert two "stage" HTML edge elements into a page using the method referenced above, this would be a suitable solution also. I've tried inserting more than one HTML file / stage where they are of different stage sizes and had no luck creating a second "stage_02" etc to acheive this so far.
    Thanks again for your reply,
    Cheers,
    Jeff

  • Is it possible to easily eliminate white space between chapters in IDCS4

    I am creating a book of 50 chapters in ID CS4.  I would like to keep the total # pages in the final book to a minimum. Each chapter ends at a random point on its last page.  I s there a way to automatically "snug" a following chapter close against the end of the previous, rather than beginning on a new page? This would save about 5% (25pgs) in total.

    The point Eugene has been trying to make is that the only way to have one chapter end and another start on the same page is if both chapters are part of a single document. You cannot accomplish this if you use the Book feature to assemble individual single-chapter documents.
    If it's all one document, you can elimiate white space by making the chapters into a single story. One way to do that is to click the outport of the last frame in a chapter and then click inside the first frame of the following chapter to thread them. Text will flow backwards to fill the space unless you've done something special like set a keeps option to start on next page.
    If you don't want a single story, shorten the last frame of the chapter so it fits the text, then add a new frame elow it and thread that one to the next chapter. This will be a pain in the butt for editing as you'll constanly find yourself adjusting frames as you add or remove text.

  • Slideshow Web Part item limit

    I've got a picture library with over 700 images (and growing) but the web part, set to display sequentially, is only showing 300 images before looping. When it's set to random it shows more!?! I need it to display sequentially as people are going to be
    going through the images and filling in an excel spreadsheet when they recognise someone in the image. If it's set to random it's going to give them a stinking headache! Is there any way of disabling the limit on sequential order?? If not, what are my options?
    So far, the slideshow is the only way I've found to display the images quickly (without having to click on each pic in the library, which will be a very slow process), and not being able to change this very restrictive limit is incredibly frustrating (and
    shortsighted on Microsoft's part)!
    The only other option I could think of was multiple picture libraries linking to multiple web parts. Is this really all I can do??

    People have asked similar questions on LinkedIn and SharePoint Stack Exchange, and it seems there is a 300 limit when displaying sequentially, 1500 when displaying randomly. You could look at using some custom web parts. Amrein Engineering have a few: Image
    Rotator, Banner Rotator and Slideshow. None of them are expensive and you could ask them first if there are any limits.

  • How can i stretch pictures in picture library webpart and remove the home tab that comes with the site

    Hello people
    how can i stretch images to fit into my picture library webpart?
    also how can i remove the Home tab that comes with change the look.

    Hi,
    Let’s verify the following:
    Whether you use the picture  library web part or Image Viewer web part or Picture Library Slideshow Web Part.
    I think you should custom the web part to stretch images to fit into your web part. There is no OOTB method to achieve it.
    Whether the home tab is your library name.
    To remove the Home tab, edit the web part->Appearance->”Chrome” choose none.
