I want to create an image gallery with forward back nav, master image with a click to pop out zoom

Hi Musers,
I'm currently building a photography website and need some help building a specific type of gallery.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Below is a description of the gallery I want to build:
On the gallery page the gallery appears as a single 'Master Image' with forward and back 'Navs.' and a 'Counter' underneath this single 'Master Image'. Lets say that there are 10 images in this gallery. When the viewer clicks on the forward 'Nav.' the 'Master Image' changes to the next image in the sequence of 10 and the 'Counter' below confirms this progression, in this example the 'Counter' changes from 1 of 10 to read 2 of 10, the 'Master Image' displayed is the second image in the sequence.
Simple so far.. This above I can do as this is just a basic gallery. What follows is what I cannot find a solution for.
I want the gallery viewer to be able to click on the 'Master Image' and launch an enlargement of that image overlaying the gallery page, very much like the way the 'Lightbox' widget displays an enlarged image. When the viewer clicks off the 'Ligtbox' or enlarged image it dissapears, reverting the page view back to the standard gallery view with 'Master Image', 'Navs.' and 'Counter'. I do not want the expanded / Enlarged 'Lightbox' image accompanied by a thumbnail gallery, 'Navs.' / Navigation arrows or a 'Counter'. What I want is to be able to launch an enlarged version of the 'Master Image' as an overlay on the gallery page, something like a pop out.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Can anyone explain how I can do this? Is it possible?
The solution I want seems to be a highbrid between the standard gallery with navigation arrows kept but minus thumbnails and captions with some of the functionality of the lightbox gallery widget.
I very much appreciate any help anyone can give.
Thank you

Hi Harriet,
Thanks for the message. I'm sure as time goes on new features will be introduced but it's a bit of a shame that the widget library is a little basic, oh, and at times it's just that little bit buggy. So far I'm really impressed by Muse despite being ever so slightly disappointed by some of it's limitations. I'd like to see more image gallery options, the ability to set up a client login area or a client ftp within a site, I also tried embedding video but as I'm no programmer the result looked clumsy so some focus on this would be a help. Considering that a good number of people benefiting from a Muse site will be online retailers a zoom function should have been there from the start.
Best regards
Jacques

Is it possible to place forward/back nav buttons in a timeline based gallery. Stand alone SWF needed.

I'm currently working on a gallery to be output as a stand-alone SWF file, and am doing it all on the timeline as I can't write actionscript for toffee
So far, I have the gallery created with alpha tweens fading between embedded images. These images are buttons, to which I have added URL links (my only foray into actionscript), which will send the user to a specific link related to the image being shown at the time. At the moment this is just a linear timeline that flows from start to finish and loops to the start again - as per most other simple timeline based animations.
I have now been asked if I can add two nav buttons (one each side of the frame) to allow the user to flip back and forth through the images. Is this possible on a timeline? And if so, how would it best be implimented? I just don't know if a button action can affect the flow of a timeline.
Ideally the gallery will auto flow, until either of the forward/back nav buttons are clicked.
Any help here would be really really appreciated.

Thanks for that Ned. I've had a quick look, and will research deeper later. Though being a complete and utter novice at actionscript, I am flummoxed by probably the simplest of stuff by your standards. For example, the scripts I saw briefly, using the searches you suggested appeared to not export a stand alone SWF file - with no XML files or image folders (I'm still to work out if is possible to do that for this particular use). Also, on all of the examples I saw, the buttons are embedded at the bottom of the pane, and I really need to put the buttons as plainly obvious clickable blobs on either side of the image area. This, again, I can easily do on a timeline (apart from actually making them work of course) but to do this with someone else's AS code, will need more time than I have to learn the relevent stuff.
Does it sound like I may have to just settle for a linear, non-interactive rotating gallery? - based on my knowledge limitations, as well as needing a stand alone SWF.

"Unavailable master images cannot be exported.The selected master image is either offline or not found. Please reconnect it and try again."

I have imported my iPhoto library onto Aperture, and then deleted the iPhoto library so not to have any duplicates. Now, the images on Aperture are pixelated and when I try to export them the following message appears: "Unavailable master images cannot be exported.The selected master image is either offline or not found. Please reconnect it and try again." What does this mean? How can I get my photos "online" so that I can see them as they used to be?

How did you import your iPhoto Library? I assume, you used "File > Import > iPhoto LIbrary", but how did you set the "Store Files" pop-up menu?
If you chose to "Store Files in their current location", then you did not actually import the master image files into Aperture, but referenced them inside the iPhoto Library. In that case, you just deleted all your images, when you deleted the iPhoto Library. And if you did that, and your iPhoto Library is still sitting in the Trash, put it back; then your Aperture Library should work again. Or restore the iPhoto Library from your most recent backup and put it into the exactly same location where it used to be.
If you used a different "Store Files" setting, please explain where you have chosen to store the master image files. This will help to track down your images.
After restoring your master image files you may need to reconnect them to the versions. Post back, if you need help with that.

Can I edit the email created to send a PDF form back to me when a user clicks on Submit?

I created several PDF fillable forms for our users to request services and send back data needed to deliver those services. They are simple forms, and users will click on Submit to return to a mailto: address.
My question is about the email message that is auto-created when the user clicks on Submit. I can't find any config window to be able to edit the message in the body of the email. The message reads:
Form Returned: 2014PrintingRequestForm.pdf
The attached file is the filled-out form. Please open it to review the data.
Is there any way to edit this message?

Problem with apply changes on master-detail with respect to date handling

dear sir,
i have one tabler where in i have created from_Date and to_date as varchar2(30) each. I stored the from date as 'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi' I had written before header process for calculating no of days between from_Date and to_Date using the said format. If to_Date is null then first i store the value as
to_char(sysdate,'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi') and then convert it as to_Date(substr(to_Date,1,17),'dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi'). this calculation of days procedures works fine in sql command mode.
when i am handling through master-detail page i works fine when there is null value inf to_Date vc2 column. if i store using date picker dd-mon-yyyy hh24:mi, the data is getting stored but subsequent edit through master detail give error as ora-01722 unable to fetch row. Manually if i set the to_Date as null pages works fine. I spent lots of time and unable to understand the mistake i do.
if anybody could help me, i will be much obliged.
thanking you,
yours

I think the best would be if you create an example on apex.oracle.com and I will debug it.

Reverting layer of still images sent to Motion back to still images

Hi, I drag selected a series of still images on a layer in FCP then sent that selection/layer to Motion for editing. How can I revert the layer back to the still images?
Or, alternatively...
The problem is these still images appear squarish in FCP's Canvas and in Motion...they are rectangular 16:9 images in their native format...so I am considering dragging each individual image back onto the Canvas and then dropping them onto the Canvas's "replace" overlay -- to hopefully update the images in their original dimensions.
I'm unsure of why these images are no longer 16:9...perhaps there is a more efficient way to restore their original dimension. There are about 50 of them...I am unsure of what I have done to make them squarish.
Thanks (new to FCP)

Need work around for image gallery with password protected URLs

Is there a way to display an image gallery that has password protected URLs?
I can build the image gallery in Siena using an excel table with a list of the images and when I preview the app inside Siena I get the expected credentials prompt from IE, and I enter the credentials and the images load and display with their captions perfectly.
There are 4-6 images in the gallery.
When I publish and produce a store app, the app errors out with can’t connect and obviously fails on
var GenericInitError = "The app could not connect to the server. Please try again later.",
GenericInitTitle = "Network error";
Most likely because Siena wants to preload everything and there is no way with preload to enter credentials.
I am looking for any alternatives that would let me get around this.
TIA

Nope. The app accesses a group of IP Security cameras. Static images would not
make any sense. And authentication is required. Not negotiable.

Creating Windows 8.1 master image with MDT 2013,cannot capture .WIM

I am having an issue with creating a master image with Windows 8.1 and MDT 2013.
I have followed extensive tutorials on how to create a master image using Microsoft Deployment Toolkit. my goal is to have a fully configured windows 8.1 image which I can deploy through Windows Deployment Services. I have been relatively successful thus far,
except for one issue I have run into, which is successfully capturing this image as a .WIM.
I have successfully created a task sequence and the task sequence is able to run all the way through until the final step. Essentially the task sequence is supposed to install Windows and Office, then suspend the task sequence to allow me to make customisations
to the start screen and desktop background, and I simply click resume task sequence, and the task sequence should sysprep reboot and capture the machine image as a .WIM file.
the task sequence is able to sysprep the machine, but upon rebooting it boots into out of box experience, and does not create a wim file. I receive an error saying: "cannot find script file C:\ltibootstrap.Vbs" after the machine completes OOBE
I am using Windows Server 2012 r2, creating my Master machine image using hyper-v, and my master image is running Windows 8.1.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure about the sequence of steps here. Try taking your captured.wim file and deploying it using MDT again, or at least to another machine. MDT sometimes leaves extra files around on the captured machine, so simply rebooting it may not get a accurate
test results.
IF you are getting the ltibootstrap.vbs it is most likely because there is a stray unattend.xml file somewhere in your image that is looking for this file. Crack open your Wim file and search for any unattend.xml files.

What is the best way to create a photo gallery?

Hi,
I want to create a photo gallery in Dreamweaver without using any pre-built "web gallery" function. What's the best way to swap the images when I click the "next" button? Do I create a new Dreamweaver page for each photograph? Is there a more efficient way to do it than that?
Thanks,
Gordon

Is there a more efficient way to do it than that?

Anyone have a good tutorial for an AS3-XML image gallery?

I'm a pretty good Flash developer, but I've never worked with XML in Flash. I'm looking for a good tutorial on creating an XML driven image gallery, but I have yet to really find anything. Does anyone out there have a good tutorial? Thanks!
Jesse

Your best bets for getting something more specific to your needs will either be to...
- search Google using terms like "AS3 XML gallery tutorial" and "AS3 XML slideshow tutorial"
- take one fairly complicated tutorial and learn how it works down to understanding each element of what is being done. Once you a proper level of understanding you should be able to reason out how to create one of your own with whatever different features you prefer
