Images in fullscreen?

Judging from the Multitouch Books already available, it's should be possible to pinch open many (if not all) images to fullscreen.
When I insert images in iBooks Author though, they cannot be opened to fullscreen on the iPad. Doesn't matter whether i insert them inline with the text or not. (When they are not inline with the text, to make it worse, they won't even show up in portrait mode.)
I did try to use the image gallery widget populated with only one image, but it iBooks crashes every time i open the page containing it.
What are your experiences?
Thanks.

Furthermore for those that tndom's answer wont work, i finally figured out what we are missing.
If you are in the case of Daniel Gardner1 (see above), that it was the same problem i had, try and go to
Inspector-> Wrap (it is the third choice from the left) -> and Floating or Anchored for your image!
This should do the trick finally!
edit: i also managed to get a picture into FullScreen mode using Interactive Image from Widgets and deleting all the explanatory bubbles from inside. You can also have Title this way and furthermore that swirly effect when you go in and out of fullscreen,

Display Image in Fullscreen like in Gallery (Windows Phone 8.1 SDK)

Hello everyone,
Maybe this is a so simple Task and I should be embarassed...however I currently just don't know how to do it. I am writing an app where I Display several Images in a Pivot Template. I know nothing about These Images as I am getting them from the Internet
and every Image can have a different Resolution.
I thought of displaying them like in the Gallery - As Fullscreen as possible and a double Tap makes them Zoom- and Scrollable. I thought of doing this via a Scrollviewer but have no Idea how. My current Markup is like this:
<Grid x:Name="Scrollgrid" Margin="-20,0,-20,0">
<ScrollViewer x:Name="scrollViewer" Height="500" Width="Auto" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" ZoomMode="Enabled" MinZoomFactor="0.5">
<StackPanel Height="500" Width="Auto" Orientation="Horizontal">
<Image x:Name="RssImage"
Source="{Binding Image}"
CacheMode="BitmapCache"
Stretch="Fill"
HorizontalAlignment="Center"
VerticalAlignment="Top">
<Image.Transitions>
<TransitionCollection>
<EntranceThemeTransition FromHorizontalOffset="200"/>
</TransitionCollection>
</Image.Transitions>
</Image>
</StackPanel>
</ScrollViewer>
</Grid>
which is just not sufficient enough.Does anybody have an Idea?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
I think you have to use FlipView Control in order to render collection images into one possible UI element. It can be swiped to change the images. You make full screen also. You can use in both windows and windows phone.
Please refer this link

If this doesn't meet your answer. Please ask me again. Thank you..

Image in fullscreen with on/off captions

I need to tap an image to show it in fullscreen, and then tap an "info" icon on that fullscreen image to show/hide some captions; and finally, tap a "close" button to get the image in its original size again.
I already know about some MSO limitations, but if is it possible to do, i appreciate to know how to.
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo

not really the thing your looking for, but maybe a way you can make it work.
for my "fullscreen" slideshows I use a button with "go to url" and use "HTMLResources/fullscreen.pdf"
then upload the pdf with the picture in a HTMLResources.zip.
this opens a big picture with a "done" button to close it. Lacks the info part you mentioned though.
(for android you need to build this using a html instead of pdf)

IPad 3 Startup Image (NON-FULLSCREEN) - [HELP]

I am still seeing some strange flicker happen with my startup image. It loads the image in the right placement .. then shifts it up ( seems to be shifting it to Y = 0 )
I am including the following images ( I have also tried removing the Default.png image and the problem still persists ).
Default-Landscape - 1024 x 748
Default-Landscape@2x - 2048 x 1496
Default - 1024 x 748
Any ideas ?

The splash screen sizes were always written up based on you keeping the status bar showing. The advice has been modified now I think, and you should be able to use 1024x768 and 2048x1536 images, which is correct for full screen use. If you do keep the status bar showing it will happily sit on top of the top 20 pixels of the image. So, change to those values and things should be ok.
BTW, Defalut.png is just for iPhone size, and is portrait, even if your app is landscape. You want it to be 320x480, and you can have [email protected] as 640x960 for iPhone Retina.

Set a fullscreen Boot image

Hi,
I know that I can change the boot image by simply replacing the file BootLogo.png into another one with the image I want to appear at the startup screen.
But I want this image to be fullscreen size, and I cannot do that, as I don't know where or how to configure it.
So, how do I set a boot image as fullscreen?

Something funny is happening here!
Before testing something (I'll say later) I would say the things below:
>>
Maybe I haven't expressed myself properly.
I don't want to change the login background picture, I want to change the boot picture (the gray apple that appears at the startup, when you turn on your mac) and its size.
That gray apple file (BootLogo.png) is located at the same place as the DefaultDesktop.jpg file is. See image below.
The point is that I don't know how to change the boot picture size (to fullscreen, for example).
<<
But just after writing all that, I've thought that this file (BootLogo.png) could habe been created by BootXChanger. So then, I opened that program and set the boot image to the default (the gray apple), deleted that .png file and restarted the computer.
I noticed that the original gray apple appeared at the startup (boot) screen without troubles and that the BootLogo.png file hadn't been restored (as if the OS did not need that file).
After that, I opened the BootXChanger.app to change the boot image again and the BootLogo.png file reappeared.
So, now, I have 2 questions:
- the original one; how do I set a fullscreen boot image?
- and; if the BootLogo.png file doesn't exist, how do I change the boot image without having BootXChanger?

Java 3D in fullscreen. How?

I need to display animated 3D images in fullscreen exclusive mode and I'm using active rendering as opposed to passive. How can I display parts of the virtual universe in fullscreen mode with active rendering? Many, many thanks to whoever can help me out with this.

AddMouseListener in fullscreen

Hi, I'm using the following 2 classes for displaying images in fullscreen mode and they work fine.
But I need to display the images and also make them disappear when the user clicks on them. I'm trying to do it detecting the position of the mouse clicks and if those clicks are "inside" the image margins It disappears.
First I need to capture the mouse clicks but it's not working: I changed the FullScreen1 to implement MouseListener:
public class FullScreen1 extends JFrame implements MouseListener
and added the following events to FullScreen1:
public void mouseClicked( MouseEvent event )
     System.out.println("Hola, mundo");
System.out.println( "Clicked at [" + event.getX() +
", " + event.getY() + "]" );
public void mouseExited( MouseEvent event )
System.out.println( "Mouse outside window" );
public void mouseEntered( MouseEvent event )
//JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, "Mouse in window" );
     System.out.println("Mouse in window");
public void mouseReleased( MouseEvent event )
System.out.println( "Released at [" + event.getX() +
", " + event.getY() + "]" );
public void mousePressed( MouseEvent event )
System.out.println( "Pressed at [" + event.getX() +
", " + event.getY() + "]" );
but I can't add the addMouseListener and can't figure out how to do it

2 things.
If you want to get help post your code using the code button (select the code with the mouse and the click on the code button.
I have had a similar problem just last week and at the end I added a jlabel with the same bounds of the image. So you add your mouse listener to the jlabel and you don't have to worry about calculation mouse positions.
It is simple and it works.

IPhone 4G Image Problem

Ok so I recently upgraded to the iPhone 4G after two years of owning a 3G.
Anyway, since using this iPhone everytime I try an view an image in Safari it looks extremely low quality and if I save it to my Photo Library it looks just as bad. My pictures are fine if I take photos with the camera but anything from safari is bad quality.
Is there any way to change this or am I stuck with low quality images.
Any help is appreciated.
P.S, when I try and view an image in fullscreen it seems like it is already zoomed in as far as it can go and still see the full Image.

Pictures from the web are mostly optimised for 72 dpi display on your monitor. Photos you take with the camera are capable of much higher definition.
The whole area of dots per inch, pixels per inch, resolution and size is a bit of a nightmare until you can get your head around it.

Irritating UI "bugs" when renaming and deleting images

I have been using iPhoto for a couple of years now, and there are some minor glitches in the UI that simply frustrates the **** out of me in the new '08 version. Perhaps it's due to "wrong" usage, so please tell me if I can avoid them:
Firstly, I'm often viewing and comparing my images in fullscreen when cleaning up a large batch of vacation photos, but when I apple+backspc. to delete an image, it jumps to the start of the Event instead of showing me the image before/after the one I deleted - WHY!? This is only in fullscreen view - if I space-view it goes to the next picture as expected?
Secondly, there is apparently no shortcut for renaming an image, when viewing the thumbnails in an event or album. Numeric enter doesn't work (as ie. in iTunes), neither does (Windows) F2 or anything I could think of at least. Is there a shortcut that I just missed - please tell me!
This could seem rather minor, but my library counts 5800+ images, and I spend literally days in this program when I'm sorting new Events, so if these issues could be addressed either by an update or if I just need to know some little trick, I would be a much happier customer.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
when I apple+backspc. to delete an image, it jumps to the start of the Event
Yes, that's a bug that's been reported before. Report it at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html as the more reports the more likely it will come to the attention of the developers.
As far as renaming or titling in the thumbnail mode, you have to first click on the title so the title field is activated. Then you can enter any title you'd like.
You can also batch title files by using the Photos->Batch Change->Title menu option. This will rename them all the same or add a sequential number to the end of the title.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Aperture applying unwanted adjustments when loading an image

Hello,
I'm having a bit of an issue with Aperture and I'm wondering if the community can help me.
My camera is a Canon Eos 600D.
I'm running Aperture 3.4.3 on a Mid 2010 iMac 27", with 8GB of Ram.
Just lately, when I import and load images into Aperture, it seems to be applying unwanted adjustments to the photos just after it completes loading them.
Let me explain further:
I take pictures on the camera. Previewing them on the Canon they look as I would expect, and I'm happy with them.
I insert the SD card from the camera into the Mac, and Aperture previews/shows the thumbnails of my photos, and they look just like they did on the camera.
I import them into a given library.
When viewing the thumbnails of the imported images in the library, they look the same, so I double click one to load it fullscreen. The image appears fullscreen, looking exactly as it did on the camera, and Aperture pops the word 'Loading' at the top of the image.
Them when it finishes 'Loading', it seems to apply some unwanted adjustments to the photo. Mostly it applies a yellow wash to the image, and in some cases, it radically adjusts the levels.
See examples below:
This was what the image looked like after it had loaded:
And this is what it should have looked like (I had to edit it BACK to what it had looked like on the camera).
I should note that once Aperture has seemingly applied these unwanted adjustments, there is no way to undo them - 'Revert to Original' does nothing as as far as Aperture is concerned, this is the original image.
Again, notice what happens when I quick preview an image:
But when I switch out of Quick Preview, these unwanted adjustments are applied:
Please, can anyone help out with this - it's driving me crazy.
Is there a way of seeing what Aperture might be doing/applying behind the scenes? I've checked Preferences but can't see anything obvious.
Many thanks in advance.
dradd

Are you shooting raw?
Aperture is not doing any adjustments after import. Probably you have set your camera to do adjustments and you are using in-camera adjustment settings, like D-Lighting. These in-camera adjustments are reflected in the camera generated preview, that you are seeing when you are importing the image. After that, when you are opening the image, Aperture will create its own preview from the naked raw image. And that what you will see in the viewer. This preview shows exactly what your raw image is like, without any adjustments done by the camera. If you want the image processing results from the camera and not the original raw image as recorded by the camera from the sensor, import jpeg and not raw.
See this discussion: TA24505 Why do d600 raw's look totally different than the jpg's that are imported together. When I select a raw, it looks as if it gets adjusted, but I can't figure out why...

I view PDF files (along with other file types) with an App called FILES. It cost £2.99 but is well worth it if you have the need to view files on the move. Files are added on to the iPhone via a WIFI connection, once there are transferred, you do not need a WIFI connection to view the added files, they are viewable anytime.
If you look on iTunes or the developers website http://www.olivetoast.com/Files/ it tells you what files it will view.
Here's a description of what the FILES App can do:
Files allows you to store and view files on your iPhone or iPod touch. Connect to Files via Wi-Fi from any Mac or PC and drag and drop files straight from the Finder or Windows Explorer, as you would with any other shared folder. In fact any client which understands the WebDAV protocol can connect to Files.
Set a passcode to secure local access to Files, and a username and password to secure remote access.
Files supports viewing of most common file types, including most Microsoft Office documents, PDF, RTF and RTFD documents, images, text, html, movie and audio files. You can quickly and easily read documents and view images, all fullscreen and in portrait or landscape mode. Zoom and pan via the standard pinch and swipe gestures.
Add bookmarks to longer documents; use search to find and filter files easily; delete unwanted documents with a simple swipe and tap; set a username and password to secure your data; Files has it all covered.
With Files you can take documents with you wherever your iPhone or iPod touch goes, view them and transfer them easily to any compatible Mac or PC.

Simple way to insert custom Jquery Slideshows and Plugins in Muse

Hi guys, I know the Adobe Muse team is working hard to make this revolutionary tool better by the day. They have done a lot of foundation work to get this tool up to this state. I say congrates guys keep the good work on.
But before we get to the promised land. I know a lot of 'creative non-coders' still want to take up the challenge of doing some cool stuff spread around the internet nowadays such as jquery fullscreen image slideshow, fullscreen image jquery sliders, etc. But Muse is not there yet. I believe the next release will enable designers to take advantage of the height feature missing right now(I just believe so, no insider hint, please don't quote me.).
Okay let me not bore you.
Now I have noticed you can bring any slideshow into Muse if you have the bravery to do it. It's so simple. See this: www.dynamicarchitecturaldesign.com.
The slideshow was a backstretch jquery plugin with some custom javascript to load the page before displaying the page.
The trick is, follow the instruction provided by the author of any of this script, especially the ones relating to the jquery-1.4min.js... jquery-1.7.min.js... upto the latest version that could possibly be available. Note: Adobe Muse also have almost the latest version of the jquery plugin. So after authoring your stuff in Adobe Muse, export as HTML then move and replace any of the code provided by the author of the code you intent to use with the one that Muse generates always:
<script src="http://musecdn.businesscatalyst.com/scripts/1.1/jquery-1.7.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
This is often placed toward thge bottom section before the closing </body> and </html> tags. Move it up to the head section using notepad or DW. Though this is not the intended workflow by the Muse team, but it gives you the edge to do stuff you want to do.

Okay Maurya, am suggesting the Muse dev team can take a cue from the edge team. In the publishing setting of Edge their is an option for Framework via CDN! Introducing this feature into Muse will go along way to enhance the workflow of psuedo-developers using Muse to cut down on web design time. if I have some jquery codes for slideshows and so on that I have lifted from some places or purchased on the internet, I can conveniently place the codes as usual where they need to be and on export indicate to Muse whether I want it to include its own code:
"http://musecdn.businesscatalyst.com/scripts/1.1/jquery-1.7.min.jswhich has been further modified in the new beta 2 release as:
<script type="text/javascript">
if (document.location.protocol != 'https:') document.write('\x3Cscript src="http://musecdn.businesscatalyst.com/scripts/1.1/jquery-1.7.min.js" type="text/javascript">\x3C/script>');
</script>
in the export and during publish (a publish setting kinda of could be added to the preference area) or use my own framwork that I have included in the head section. So Muse will not include the above jquery musecdn... in the publish version. That way you are giving us more control and winning more developers over to Muse and of course more money for Adobe . See screnshot in Adobe Edge:

Extremely slow navigation in full screen mode and other erratic behavior

Hi,
Is it me or every new release of PSE feels heavier and more bloated than the previous?
I have PSE9 running on a dual core, one year old dell PC with W7 with 4GB of RAM. I have the maximum amount of recommended memory alloted to the program (set in preferences).
Ever since I upgraded, moving forward (or backward) to the next pic (via pagedown, or up) through the filmstrip in fullscreen mode has become very, very sluggish. Sometimes it just will not move to the next image even when thi image is in the same directory as the previous one.
Is this sluggish navigation normal? Or is there something that I can do to improve performance??
I look at images in fullscreen mode to decide which ones to edit and which ones to delete so I use this feature a lot. Another example of sluggish-- or in this case erratic-- behavior happens when looking at an image in full screen and then I decide to edit the image. I load the image to the edito by clicking the editor icon on the left options pane. Even if the editor is already open, sometimes it brings the editor to the ferground with the image ready to be edited and sometimes it does not; I have to cycle with alt-tab to make the editor active. Why this erratic behavior? Then, after saving an image and selecting the close button, you are supposed to be returned to the organizer... well this happens sometimes, other times I have to manually swithc using alt-tab.
Please help, this is very annoying.

I don't understand whether you have a Referenced-Masters Library or a Managed-Masters Library. Drives slow as they fill and with a Managed-Masters Library sooner or later the internal drive will become overfilled. I recommend a Referenced-Masters Library with Masters on an external drive and the Aperture Library on the internal drive.
iMacs, laptops and Minis are by definition limiting to heavy Aperture usage, so work carefully to optimize setup and workflow.
First is to max the RAM and make sure the hard drive stays less than 70% full. Restart the iMac prior to a major Aperture session and only have Aperture open. You should also investigate to see if a substantially more powerful video card is available at reasonable price.
Set Preview size to be exactly screen size and build Previews manually when the box is otherwise not being aggressively used.

1.1: No more star ratings on thumbnails?

Hello all,
As most of you did, I upgraded Aperture to 1.1. I'm now having a very annoying problem that I was hoping someone may be able to give some insight into.
When I'm going through the images (either fullscreen or windowed), when I would assign star-ratings or keywords, a little star icon and a "keyword" icon would show up on the thumbnail. Now, however, those icons do not show up, and I have no idea if I've rated the picture (or, for that matter, what I rated it). Is this a bug? A feature of 1.1? A problem with my Aperture 1.1.
I checked preferences, but that did not have anything to indicate that this is a feature that needs (re-)enabling.
I welcome any thoughts. Thanks in advance!
Doug

Hi Doug - check your view options: Cmd-J, or View menu>View Options...
In the options pane, is the heading "Grid View" selected/checked?

Images in fullscreen?
