Identity Plate TOO SMALL in Lightroom Flash Galleries

In Lightroom Flash Galleries, the size of the Identity Plate is very limited, much smaller than that possible with the HTML Galleries.I've tried reconfiguring the layout,using a different template, using an image for the ID Plate, but the problem persists.
It's a big problem because the Flash Galleries are pretty much useless as is.

Thanks Sean
Kind of harsh I guess. The Flash Galleries are great except my logo (a simple line of text) can only appear as small type (14pt I'd guess), and only justified to the left. This is visually unacceptable for a site that clients, etc. will go to. So I can't use it for what I need. I guess some might be able to use it, but for what I need to do it is effectively useless. Which is too bad because I like the rest of the Lightroom Web experience a lot.

  • Multiple lightroom flash galleries in website

    Ok, I don't have much experience with html, or any at all with flash, just so we're clear.
    I'm attempting to link to different lightroom-created flash galleries within my website. The problem is, when I add the first gallery to the remote (using godaddy ftp client) that link works fine. When I upload the second gallery for a different link, I get the first gallery instead of the second. I'm under the assumption that something within the lightroom-flash files needs to be renamed so the link is a different path for the second gallery. (make sense?) The idea is clicking on a thumbnail on a "galleries" page links to the lightroom-created flash gallery I created with those images.
    I'm not attempting to add the .swf to an html editor, just straight upload to godaddy. Can anyone tell me what part/parts need to be changed so each gallery works with it's own images?
    Thanks!

    Shane,
    You should put different Flash galleries into different subfolders (subdirectories) of your web site, and link to the "index.html" file within each subfolder from your main page.

  • Using Lightroom Flash Galleries in Flash Catalyst

    Hi there. I love the ability of Lightroom to create brilliant Flash Galleries especially since there are so many plug-ins out there for the Lightroom Web Module.
    My questions is, Is there a way to take the exported Flash Gallery from Lightroom, and use it in Flash Catalyst? In Flash Catalyst I have tried to import the .swf file created by Lightroom but when I try to view the Catalyst project, the gallery doesn't work. I have also tried after the fact to move the remaining files exported by Lightroom into the same folder Catalyst places the .swf file, but still to no avail.
    Am I doing something wrong here? I'm not a programmer and have limited knowledge of code, but I'm also a quick learner and would very much like some help finding a solution to this.
    If you have any advice, it would be much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Stef

    I'm not familiar with Lightroom in particular, but there is a tutorial on using a similar swf gallery here.
    Things to check:
    The lightroom files are all in the same location relative to the swf when you move them to your project
    If your html page and your Catalyst swf are in different directories, make sure you set the base url
    If you're still having trouble, you may want to install the debug player from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    It can generally show you any problems that pop up. They may not be very human-readable, but if you post them here I bet someone can help you decrypt them.

  • Images printing too small using Lightroom

    I have an image that is 316x x 2317 pixels that I am printing using Lightroom 2.3 on Windows XP SP2. I use the Picture Package and add one 4x6 image to the sheet. I am using the Maximize template from the browser. The photo borders are minimum. The image nearly fills the page in the Lightroom viewer just as I expect. The image appears the same in Print Preview. However on my Epson 3800 the image prints about 30% smaller and offset to one corner of the 4x6 sheet.
    The problem also occurs when printing from Photoshop CS4.
    I am not scaling or resizing in the print driver. I uninstalled and reinstalled the printer using the latest driver.
    Please help!!
    Michael

    Oh my...
    It seems that, embarrasingly I was tripple checking everything for 4x6 prints but actually had 5x7 loaded in the printer!
    Thanks for helping the hopeless.

  • Web Identity Plate Sizing Issue

    I am using a web engine from Lightroomgalleries.com called LRG FSS Select. But my issue happens with the flash engines that came with Lightroom originally. The pixel height of 57 for the identity plate is really limiting! I've seen some work around in the Print module to move text on the photo, however I'm using an image. No matter what size I make the image Lightroom resizes it so small that the text is barely readable. Follow this link to see what I'm talking about...
    This is the identity plate I get using a Flash Engine.  http://www.tuanlee.com/weddings/
    This is the identity plate I get using an HTML Engine.  http://www.tuanlee.com/weddingsnonflash/
    Is there some sort of trick to make the Flash identity plate the same size at the identity plate I get when I use an HTML engine. What am I missing here?
    Thanks in advance!

    Anyone have any experience with this?  Is this something that contacting Adobe directly with would help?

  • Lightroom Flash and HTML galleries (at the same time)

    I cannot find any reference to such a thing but it would be great if when creating a Lightroom Flash gallery that there was the option of simultaneously creating a HTML gallery too which references the same image folder content (choice of large, medium or small) as I have situations where clients machines or bandwidth prohibits browsing on Flash galleries and where it would be good having the HTML option.
    Thanks, Jeremy

    Ngarraud,
    Try this:
    *Multicast Rate / Transmit Power*
    Launch Airport Utility.
    Select your Time Capsule on the left.
    Click "Manual Setup".
    Select "Airport" from the toolbar at the top.
    Click the "Wireless" tab.
    Click the "Wireless Options..." button.
    Check the setting for "Multicast Rate".
    This setting controls the range at which you allow devices to access your network. Lower is better if you want access throughout the house. But this setting won't improve speed. Tesserax has a nice explanation of this setting in the following quote:
    +"The Multicast Rate option sets the threshold throughput level a wireless client must obtain in order to be "accepted" by the base station. The lower this value, theoretically, the greater number of clients that can connect, especially those at greater distances from the base station. At the opposite end, the higher this number, only those wireless clients that can achieve the higher throughput value will be able to connect.+ [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6736587]
    Next, verify that your "Transmit Power: is set to 100%.
    *Interference Robustness / Use Wide Channels*
    Finally, ensure that "Interference Robustness" is checked (For certain network configurations this setting will say "Use Wide Channels. Verify that it is checked nonetheless.)
    Help Doc states: +"You may experience network performance problems if a microwave oven or other source of interference is used frequently near your base station or Time Capsule. To help minimize interference, turn on interference robustness."+
    Let us know if this was helpful.
    Cheers!

  • Lightroom crashes every time I try to change the font color of my identity plate

    I use the LRB portfolio plugin to create my website. Every time I try to change the color of my identity plate, lightroom crashes immediately. I can change the font and size without the problem, only a color change causes the crash. I tried to trash the plugin, but it still behaved the same way. Can anyone help me with this problem?

    Hi Sean,
    thanks for answering. No, it crashes anyway. I tried changing the identity plate color in all different modules. I was able to change it once when I had just bought a new computer and installed Lightroom, but now I can't. I wonder if there are any cache files or anything causing this. Unfortunately I don't know enough about this to fix it myself. I wondered whether LRB is causing a problem simply by having it installed, but as I said, after I removed it from the Web Galleries folder, the problem still occurred. Is there any way to recreate the identity plate in Photoshop (same font and size etc.) and reimport it into Lightroom? I need to finish my website and my name is sol light, it is barely legible. Any fix or workaround would be appreciated.

  • Buttons missing in HDR Pro & Lightroom Identity Plate Anomoly

    Hello,
    This is intended as a bug report, but if there is anyone with info on how to fix this, I would appreciate a reply.
    I am using Photoshop CS5 12.01 and Lightroom 3.0 in a Macbook Pro 15.4".
    First, When using HDR Pro, the OK/Cancel buttons are missing from the dialog.  I have tried
    a possible fix listed online (to rename the preferences file and then lanch Photoshop again) but this
    does not work.  The only way I can see the buttons is to keep my dock on the left side of the screen
    which I do not want to do.  I understand I can simply press the "Enter" button to apply the settings and
    exit the dialog, but this is not a fix to the problem.  The software should be fixed.
    Second, when I have Lightroom and PS both open, and I switch between the applications, I notice that sometimes
    my custom Identity Plate (a png logo) remains at the top of the screen and overlaps the PS application
    window/menu bar area.  This is a very annoying problem.  It's as if the applications are not properly refreshing the
    screen or something.
    PLEASE FIX these bugs.
    Thank you,
    Rico.

    Here is the official KnowledgeBase document for the issue.
    Feedback on this workaround is appreciated.

  • Lightroom Identity Plate

    Hi first post here. I am wondering if there is a way in Lightroom to save my pictures with my signature on them? I thought I could with the Identity Plate, but I am not sure. Thanks for any help.
    Ron

    First off, the ID Plate has nothing to do with the Watermark that LR applies when you check "Apply Copyright Watermark'. The only thing that you have to fill in is the Metadata 'Copyright' field.
    What size are you exporting with Copyright Watermark? The size of he watermark is dependent on the size of the image. A 3006 x 2006 image will have a hardly discernable Watermark in its lower left corner. A 300 x 200 will have a large watermark in the same place.

  • Lightroom 5.4 identity plate space

    Now that I've updated to 5.4 I noticed my custom graphic in the identity plate is cutoff along the top. It's the space used for the activity & status with mobile sync. Is it possible to remove that or does that space now have new permanent dimensions? Turning off the option to show status and activity in identity plate steup does not change the useable space.
    Thanks
    Craig

    Here is some newer information that pertains to Versions 5.4 (and likely beyond)
    On Windows:
    The width available to the ID plate is always 40% of the current window width.
    The height depends on the UI scaling factor.
    48 pixels tall @ 100%
    74 pixels tall @ 150%
    99 pixels tall @ 200%
    On the Mac:
    The width available to the ID plate is the entire window width, extending behind the module picker if they overlap.
    The height depends on whether or not you have the activity message at the top enabled. (It's enabled by default and can be configured in the ID plate's context menu or in the ID plate dialog.)
    If you turn this preference off, the maximum height allowed for the ID plate should be the same as it was in previous LR versions, apparently 57 pixels.
    If you have the activity message enabled then the top 16 pixels of the app are reserved for it, limiting the height to 41 pixels.
    On a retina display those numbers are doubled.

  • Customizing Flash Galleries by editing the XML

    The controls within the Web tab allow you to customize the Lightroom Flash Gallery templates in a lot of ways. However, you can customize them much further by editing the XML files that are generated when you export a gallery. This requires almost no knowledge of Flash or HTML, and can be done with almost any text editor.
    Here are few examples of what you can do:
    Add a background image
    Turn off (hide) the Title Bar and/or Menu Bar
    Change the width, transparency, and color of borders around thumbnails and images
    Turn thumbnail and image drop shadows on/off
    Change the transition between images, including straight cut
    Change image and transition durations
    Change the color and transparency of all parts of a gallery including image and thumbnail area backgrounds and borders, individual buttons parts, scroll bar parts, etc
    Change the height of the captions display area
    Change text fonts and sizes
    And much more
    To start playing with this, simply open the style.xml file found within an exported gallery inside the ..resources/styles folder. You can also preview the gallery by double clicking on the index.html file, then make changes to the style.xml file in your text editor, save, and then refresh your browser to see the effect. Once youve achieved the look you want, you can copy your edited style.xml file into any gallery you export.
    Note: any text editor will work, but using an app that has good HTML or XML editing features (Adobe Dreamweaver for example) will make it much easier.
    Ive posted a few tips and tricks articles about how to do this on our blog at http://blog.bluefire.tv and plan to add more from time to time.

    gsimpson,
    There is no way via the XML to change the behavior where the smallest rendition will scale down to fit the window. Since the gallery itself scales to fit the window, scroll bars would need to appear on the image itself if the window is too small. This is in fact the behavior of the galleries in B4 if I remember correctly, but there is no way to achieve that with the 1.0 version.
    However, you can achieve your goal with a bit of html work. One easy way it to "fix" the size of your gallery within your web page (by using pixel values in the embed code for example) such that it is set big enough that the smallest rendition will not be scaled.
    Or, if you can do fairly advanced HTML you could let your gallery scale up, but not below a certain size. To do that, you'd need to put the gallery inside a "container" within your html page, (e.g a div or table cell) and then limit how small that container can be, and make sure that the container itself will grow to fill the available space.
    Another alternative would be to make your own "small" renditions, that are so small that they will not scale at the gallery's minimum size. Speaking of minimum size of the gallery, wouldn't it be nice if you could set that? Who knows, maybe someone will contribute that code to the AMG open source project...

  • Moving Identity Plate with Arrow Keys

    I have always been able to move my identity plate around using the arrow keys. For some reason, it doesn't work any more. I am using Lightroom 2.3. I know that this is a small problem, but I sure would like to know how to remedy this. Thanks!

    Hi Ken,
    This is how I have done it.
    1. Create identity plate in Illustrator and save as an Illustrator file = .ai
    2. Go to Overlays in Lightroom and check Identity Plate
    3. Within the Identity Plate checkered box, you will see a pull-down menu on the bottom right
    4. Select Edit
    5. Select the radio button: "Use a graphical Identity Plate"
    6. Locate the ai file and select Choose (You might not see anything in the window, but don't worry about that
    7. Select Custom
    8. Choose Save As and give it a name
    9. Select OK
    Now, when you go into that checkered box within the Identity Plate window, you will now see your new Identity Plate (ai graphic) listed. Select it, and it will be displayed on your photograph. Sometimes, I have to select it twice (not sure why) for the resolution to be high quality. Good luck and let me know how it works out.
