LR4 Flash Web Gallery Color Problems

The color space on the selected images appears to be changing when I use the Lightroom flash gallery in the web module of LR4.1. This stays the same when the gallery is uploaded. In previous version of LR I have seen color changes in the web module but they have been corrected (and correct) when the gallery is uploaded to the 'net.
I have read that this was (previously) a problem with the flash gallery specifically becuase it was not colour magaded, but I understood that this had been corrected for LR4. As far as my use is concerned it's actually more problematic now than it has been previously.
Can anyone offer a solution?
Thanks for any suggestions.

I have windows 7 and monitor with a calibrated profile. LR4 flash gallery's displayed are color correct, but the same gallery displayed on a uncalibrated (wide gamut) monitor shows saturated colors. Check your color management in windows 7 if a profile is associated with your monitor. The best color managed web browser for windows is safari for windows next is firefox see also this website http://www.gballard.net/psd/go_live_page_profile/embeddedJPEGprofiles.html

  • LR Flash Web Gallery Colors are too "rich"

    Hello everybody,
    I am not even sure anymore that this is a LR only question, I apologize, but I encounter my problem while using LR.
    If I create a Flash LR Web Gallery, the colors of the pictures are way off when viewed in the browser. They are too warm and very saturated.
    First I suspected my browser, but it color managed (Firefox). If I go and open a single image directly in ~/bin/images/large with the same browser, I get what I expect (and what I see in LR).
    But if I run the flash presentation, I get the overdone colors.
    Can anyone help with a hint?
    Thanxx, Peter

    No, because LR's Web module is currently based on ActionScript 2, so no 3rd party Flash web engines are colour managed.
    If you have some skills with Flash, SlideShowPro for Flash is one option. Coupled with their Director content management system, which comes with a LR export plug-in, you can have a smooth workflow and colour managed Flash output. Of course, remember that your visitors must also have Flash Player version 10, and most still don't.

  • Edit Photoshop Flash Web Gallery

    Hi!
    I'm completely new to Flash but I've been trying to edit the
    Flash gallery 1 included in Photoshop CS2. What I like to do is to
    make links from the title in the head. I figured out how I can copy
    the code for the email field that already exists. But I cant really
    understand how I change it so it works on a webpage instead of an
    email.
    The template I'm using can be downloaded here:
    Photoshop
    Flash Web Gallery
    I found the specific code in title.class.as
    The code I want to change looks like this:
    if (email != undefined) {
    var emailObj = this.createEmptyMovieClip('email_mc',
    this.nextDepth())
    emailObj.beenClicked = false;
    //trace ('we have email info it is '+email);
    currentY -= titleH2.size;
    emailObj.createTextBlock('email_txt', currentX, currentY,
    'dynamic', titleH2, 1600, 20, false, false, true, false, email,
    config.embedFont, false);
    emailObj.email_txt._width = emailObj.email_txt.textWidth+10;
    emailObj.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
    emailObj.onRollOver = emailObj.onDragOver = function () {
    //trace("over");
    this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
    emailObj.onRollOut = emailObj.onDragOut = function () {
    //trace("out");
    if (this.beenClicked == false){
    this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
    } else {
    this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.vlink.toHex();
    emailObj.onPress = function () {
    //trace("out");
    this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.alink.toHex();
    emailObj.onRelease = function () {
    this.beenClicked = true;
    this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.vlink.toHex();
    mailTo ( email)
    //trace("release");
    What I want to do is to create a link in the code for:
    if (one != undefined) {
    //trace ('we have a one it is '+one+' that is '+one.length);
    currentY -= titleH2.size;
    this.createTextBlock('one_txt', currentX, currentY,
    'dynamic', titleH2, 1600, 20, false, false, true, false, one,
    config.embedFont, false);
    Lets say that I want it to link to a page called one.htm
    How do I do this?

    This would be the least instrusive hack I can find that may get you around the problem.  In the js fle there is a function...
    function detectFlash(ver) {
    if (getFlashVersion() >= ver) {
      return true;
    } else {
      return false;
    Try changing this function to...
    function detectFlash(ver) {
    if (getFlashVersion() >= ver) {
      return true;
    } else {
      return true;
    This should eliminate making the text appear.  If not, there's another thing you can try.
    A better approach wuld be to use more up to date embedding code, though I cannot say whether the js file is written specifically for this Flash application such that it includes code that talks to the Flash file.

  • LR Flash web gallery

    I'm having a real problem with creating a flash web gallery in LR. I'm using LR 1.3 and firefox when I upload the gallery and go to view it in firefox it just hangs there saying "loading..." and it never loads. When I create a html gallery it works fine. I really want to use LR flash galleries on my site but I'm afraid I'll have to look for other options if this doesnt work out :(

    **Update**
    Working now. We were doing javascript:; browser pop to this page and if the Height of the window exceeded the ie6 laptop screen size the flash gallery would fail to work. When I changed the height to 690 (from 800) it worked fine. Go figure...
    Is this a known flash issue that I was out of loop on? Do we need to keep window sizes in mind?
    I have LR 1.3 and IE6 is not showing thumbnails on my flash gallery output.
    Also note that I had to remove the xml doc type (line 1) from the index file or I would get a parse error on our server (it worked fine locally and on my leopard MAMP websrv testing environment.)
    Seems to be working on all other browser/platforms but IE6 is by far the most popular for our website.

  • Flash Web Gallery large photo border erratic behavior

    In Lightroom HTML Web Gallery one can define border styles for the displayed photos. I cannot find a similar future in the Flash Gallery however. Is there one??? In any case, the first 6 photos in my Flash Web Gallery appear with a black border around the main large displayed photos. The subsequent photos do not have any border. In either case, it would be nice to have the border appearance consistent and preferably user definable.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi John,
    Thanks for that. A bit more digging - preview in browser is fine and export to harddrive then runs in browser OK. I tried HTML gallery and got the same error (No 2 says a file was truncated) so I chucked it all at another server and it seems to be OK. Looks like an ISP problem.
    Those unconnected problems were:
    Despite repairs I still can't burn to CD, it still says it's been disabled. I don't miss the feature but I like to think my installation is fully functional.
    I still seem to have a memory leak in that if I crop,edit and export 46 images as jpg it falls over, very politely - sorry for the inconvenience etc but this is repeatable, yesterday it crashed at 46 and 92 images. I wonder if my 2.3 install was OK and this was behind the second part of my question.

  • Flash Web Gallery Loader Background

    Greetings all,
    I am placing a LR Flash Web Gallery in an inline frame of an html page. The page background is 75% Gray.
    When the page is displayed, the loader swf appears to have a white background, causing an annoying white flash on the page until the slideshow loads.
    Once the slideshow loads, the page looks fine.
    I've played with the .xml files, but haven't found a tag that affects that background yet. Anybody experience the same problem?
    Many thanks for your help,
    Jeff

    Hi John,
    Thanks for the info and the link...
    I read your blog and instead of using an inline frame, embedded the sideshow directly in my page.
    Works fine, except now I have to "click to activate control" (Windows curse), which apparently was overridden by a script in LR's generated index.html page.
    However, thanks to your suggestions, I used my own overide scripts and embedded the page anyway. A much more elegant solution.
    Great blog and thanks for the inspiration.
    Best regards,
    Jeff

  • Flash web gallery NEED HELP

    I have no clue how to program these flash galleries....My
    site www.al-burke.com contains a flash web gallery that I purchased
    online and I have been able to upload it to the site but its says
    movie not loaded. I have all the neccessary files in place I
    believe (gallery.xlm, main.html, main.swf) all under a folder. Can
    anyone please help me out? Thanks

    Does it work when you test it from your local drive? If it
    does, but doesn't work when you post the files to the server, you
    may not have uploaded all of the parts correctly. If it doesn't
    work when testing from the files on your harddrive either, then
    there is a linking issue - have you moved any of the files after
    the gallery was created...? (If so, the links will be broken).
    You also reference a file named "main.html" - this isn't the
    name of the file that's posted - if you created a file named that,
    then changed the name to index.html without updating the links when
    prompted, that will also break the links...
    Hope that helps...

  • Needed:  variable weblinks in flash web gallery title & caption fields

    I know that one can put a fixed URL as custom text into a LR flash web gallery title or caption fields and simply click on that field in a gallery and go to that website. However, that URL is fixed and shows up for all images in the gallery. I would like the ability to have that URL vary by image. That is, I want to be able to setup custom text for a title or caption gallery field that inserts an image's certain metadata value(s) within a URL string. E.g., have LR web gallery custom text of the form:
    click here for foobar
    result in the browser going to URL held in the current image's title metadata.
    This almost works now (LR v1.4) ... Such a custom text title displays correctly. And if I left click on it and choose "copy link", the correct URL is in fact there. Unfortunately a right click doesn't take me there as it would if the custom text was a constant URL string, instead of having one or more embedded image metadata tokens.

    whoops, I didn't know that my post's example custom text string would be interpreted as a hyperlink :>) Here's the example text without the enclosing "a brackets".
    href="{title}">click here for foobar

  • Variable weblinks in Flash web gallery title & caption fields

    I know that one can put a fixed URL as custom text into a LR flash web gallery title or caption fields and simply click on that field in a gallery and go to that website. However, that URL is fixed and shows up for all images in the gallery. I would like the ability to have that URL vary by image.

E.g., be able to enter for these LR Flash web gallery fields custom text of the form:
    #A href="{title}">click here for foobar#click here for foobar#/A#
    where "#" = enclosing html brackets
    and where {title} is an image's LR title metadata (e.g., "http://www.foobar.com")
    Left clicking on such a custom field should take the browser to webpage whose URL is held in the current image's title metadata.
    This almost works now (LR v1.4) ... Such a custom text title displays correctly (i.e., just an underlined "click here for foobar"). And if I right click on it and choose "copy link", the correct URL from that image's metadata is in fact there. Unfortunately a left click just doesn't take the browser there.
    This capability would be useful for providing image info which either won't fit (e.g., extended caption info) or is technically not easy to place (e.g., a dynamic *.mov pano view) on an image's web gallery page.

    Just a comment about the web link in general -- Make sure your URL link actually works in the live /internet world. I have found that it doesn't. It looks great on your computer but when you actually build the web gallery, the link doesn't go anywhere.

  • Newbie with flash web gallery

    Hi all,
    Yes, I am very new at the whole flash process. I am a
    photographer who is trying to set up a private link for a flash web
    gallery (made in photoshop) for sending at my discretion. I have
    successfully made the gallery in photoshop, and now it sits all
    nicely in its folder on my desktop. My question is really quite
    elementary, as well as embarrassing, but which of those files
    within the folder do I send to my potential customer? Do I zip it
    all and send via email? Do I have to upload each individual file
    from each folder to my server? There has to be an easy way to do
    this, I just dont know how.
    I would prefer to have it set up on a lone webpage through my
    site, but at this point, email would be great to.
    Any help would be great!
    Thanks.

    You need a hosting service for your site, you may already have some space from your ISP. Whoever provides your hosting service will provide you with the log in details you need to upload a gallery using the in built FTP client in LR. See LR help (F1 in LR) here

  • Insert flash web gallery into webpage

    Hi!
    How do I integrate a flash web gallery created with photoshop into my own webpage? I have to call the swf from another folder than where all the web gallery stuff is.
    For example my webpage is in the folder /index
    my gallery swf and all the xml and js and imagefiles are in /index/mygallery
    I tried to copy all the css and js stuff from the generated index.htm into my header and copied all the div-content into my page. Than I altered the call of the gallery.swf to mygallery/gallery.swf and in the js in the header I altered mygallery/flashobject.js
    But it still does not work!?

    Open the xml file and see if there are any folder location that. Other than that it should be working. I haven't tried the flash gallery yet. So I could be off here. Is there another external javascript file that has not been uploaded?

  • Lightroom Flash Web Gallery Size limitations

    I just created a flash web gallery with about 250 images and I can view it fine when open the webpage locally from my computer. But when I upload the folders to my server, the images are taking forever to load, if they even finish loading.
    Is this expected? I'm using "large" thumbnail and preview sizes with Quality set to 70.

  • Customizing Flash Web Gallery in Photoshop

    Hoping someone can help me... I'm at my wits end.
    I am doing a Flash Web Gallery in Photoshop, the second kind where the images "morph" into horizontal/vertical shapes.
    I need to make a couple of customizations to it:  First, I would like the TITLE of the image (or description) to appear the whole time on the gallery, NOT just when you hover over it with your mouse.
    I need to make the text larger for the titles.
    I would like to make the little Controller images on the lower right corner BIGGER, they are so small one can barely see them.
    I was able to download the flash source file but my Flash expertise is limited and it looks like all they are are movie clips, you can't acutally MANIPULATE items in there.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
    Thanks!

    My advice is to get a 3rd party gallery creation program.
    Many are free and most are better than Adobe's half-baked offerings.

  • Flash Web Gallery HELP

    I decided to create a website to showcase some of my graphic
    design work and I have been stumped for over three weeks of how to
    insert a flash web gallery. I bought this gallery from Entheosweb
    awhile ago and have been trying to correspond with their customer
    service but to no avail. I created a basic layout in photoshop with
    a simple header and footer and a body thats at least 840 x 490
    (dimensions of the gallery). I've been using dreamweaver to upload
    the files to my web host and when I exhange the code of the gallery
    for the image (body) code it is uploaded but cannot be seen on
    http://www.al-burke.com. You
    can actually right click the gallery and press play and it will
    appear. Will this happen for all visitors to the site? Also, I am
    not sure where to put the images and the important files of the
    gallery in my root folder. Thanks for your help.

    I tried access the URL provide, however, it appears you've
    emptied your root directory.
