Lightbox Slideshow adjust spacing between thumbnails

Hi
This is actually a two part question -
1. I want to give a collage look to my slideshow, without any spacing between thumbnails. How can I remove all the space between thumbnails.
2. For all the thumbnails I want -"Fit the frame proportionally" and for all the big lightbox images I want "Fit Content proportionally" so that vertical and horizontal images are not cropped in the Lightbox view. How can I do that for all the images together rather than going one by one.
Thanks in advance.

Hi MP,
For your 1st request, the Thumbnails (containers that hold the thumb images) cannot be resized individually and maintain same dimensions for all the thumbnails. For this reason, even though you can remove all spacing between Thumbnails by selecting the Thumbnail Container and specifying H and V Gutter in the Spacing Panel to 0 -- if your slideshow images are of mismatched dimensions and proportions and you have Fit Content Proportionally selected as the Fitting option, then there will be an inevitable space around the thumb images either vertically or horizontally. You can work around that by using the Fill Frame Proportionally option.
For your 2nd request. you can choose the appropriate option in the Flyout menu for "New Hero" and "New Thumbnail" options BEFORE adding the new images to the slideshow. The selection you make here will be applicable for images that you add after setting this option. So the appropriate workflow would be to setup your slideshow the way you want, then choose the appropriate option for New Hero and New Thumbnail and then add all your images to the slideshow.
If you want fine grained control over thumbnail and images, you may look at Composition Widgets which allow you to manually place and size all content individually and still allow you to use the composition as a slideshow upon publishing.
Thanks,
Vikas

  • Adjusting Spacing Between Thumbnails

    Minor but annoying problem here. I don't know what I did but somehow all my thumbnails are now spaced REALLY close together (like, 1/8 of an inch apart). They were not like this before. I've tried adjusting the slider at the bottom right hand corner but that only changes the size of the thumbnails themselves, not the spacing between them. Having them so close together really makes it a pain in the a** when I'm trying to highlight a bunch of photos with my mouse. Any suggestions...?

    Press "u".
    Toggling the Browser Metadata Overlay off enlarges the thumbnails and moves them closer together. Handy, actually -- but not knowing how to control it makes it frustrating.
    If you don't know what the Metadata Overlays are -- now's the time to learn. Search the forum or the [User Manual|http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter =11%26section=2%26tasks=true], and ask if you have any questions.

  • Help with adjusting spacing between thumbnails and image in slideshow

    How can I adjust the spacing on the slideshow page?
    Customer wants more space between the thumbnails at the top and the image(s). Can I move the image & navigation tool or adjust the image size relative to the thumbnails and navigation tool at the bottom?
    Although I'm familiar with html source code and working on simple stuff at that level, I have yet to locate it in iWeb and make any adjustments.
    If anyone has step-wise instructions, I'd appreciate it. Thanks much.

    Although I'm familiar with html source code and working on simple stuff at that level, I have yet to locate it in iWeb and make any adjustments.
    iweb photos page's elements: header controls, detail view and footer controls are generated by ajax widgets, so there is nothing to in page source for you to find.
    If anyone has step-wise instructions, I'd appreciate it. Thanks much.
    that would be the instruction on how ajax widgets build photos page... there is none.
    you can send feedback to apple and ask for details on iweb widgets and tools to build widgets.
    that said, it can be done... check out with safari: http://temp.cyclosaurus.com/DetailView_Rearranged/Photos.html
    code is linked to my example, i don't do tutorial.

  • Muse Lightbox slideshow: Hero images are undersize & cropped, can't select to change them

    Mac, Mavericks, & Muse: First website: Building Lightbox slideshow. When a thumbnail is clicked in Preview mode, Hero image is undersized and cropped (placed jpgs are max 600 pixels x smaller). Back in Design mode, I can't select the Hero to resize it. Both  thumbnails and Hero images are set to Fit Content Proportionally.
    Any help greatly appreciated!, Thanks!

    I've had a similar-ish issue to you, minus cropping. Two key things:
    1) To edit the position or size of the hero image double-click it
    2) If the original image is smaller or larger or differently sized than the target Hero frame this (above) will happen. What I did was to
         scale the frame for the Hero image to the intended area, then get the dimensions of that area using a rectangle. Copy the vaues to make a new Photoshop document and
         manually import the images individually and save the resulting JPEGs which will have the additional space around the image to fill it for the Hero (ideally scale the image to fill the target space by losing any necessary empty space).
    Essentially the original images you're using must be the same as the resulting frame which is no good if they're all different sizes. Yeah, it's a pain.
    Hope this helps. Look at my website homepage as an example: http://www.goodwinsanimations.com/

  • Since changing over to Mountain Lion I discover that I am no longer able to adjust spaces between lines. If I choose spacing of 1.3 after two lines single-spaced, the entire previous lines end up with 1.3 spacing. What am I missing?

    Since changing over to Mountain Lion I discover that I am no longer able to adjust spaces between lines. If I choose spacing of 1.3 after two lines single-spaced, the entire previous lines end up with 1.3 spacing. What am I missing?

    Do those previous lines have a Return/Linefeed after them, or are they just wrapped to a new line?
    What App is it you're using?

  • 100% width thumbnail container in lightbox slideshow?

    Is there a way to make the thumbnail container 100% width in a lightbox slideshow?
    Basically I want a strip of 4-5 photos to span 100% of the width of the screen, then the user can click on an individual photo to bring up the larger version.
    I have it set up working the way I want except I can't make the thumbnail container 100% width.

    You can try this option :

  • Lightbox slideshow without thumbnails

    Hi.
    I've looked at a few suggested solutions for this but can't make any of them work.
    I want a multi image lightbox slideshow, but launched when clicking on a block, not a specific image.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting.
    It's not exactly what i'm after (probably didnt explain myself very well).
    I want to launch a lightbox slideshow from a single trigger. Currently i can only see that for every image you show on a lightbox slideshow, there is also an associated thumbnail.
    It's the lightbox related thumbnails i dont want to see.
    The only way i can see it working is to stack the images on top of one another and then turn the opacity to zero.
    Surely there is an easier way?
    I've attached a quick scamp of what i'm trying to do.
    Thanks

  • More space between thumbnails

    Hello there
    I am creating a image gallery with this tutorial
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=rnZNv2jTC9c&noredirect=1
    and I would like to have more space between thumbnails, I guess it is doable but I cant figure it out.
    Any ideas??
    Thank you

    Activate the thumbnail container, this will turn on the spacing panel.

  • TextField and CSS: How to control spacing between paragraphs

    I'm using an external CSS to format a textField that has some
    HTML text in it, let's say something similar to this:
    myTextField.htmlText = "<p>paragraph
    one</p><p>paragraph two</p>";
    How can I control the spacing between paragraphs when there
    is no support for margin-top or margin-bottom? I don't want to add
    empty <p> or <br /> elements to my text since they
    don't allow exact control and insert too much space. Is there any
    good solution?
    Thanks

    I think rob day's suggestion has merits too. Either way I
    don't see any other way but inserting an extra element that adjusts
    the spacing somehow.
    Yes, it sucks that the majority of styling declarations are
    not supported but, on the other hand, it is not such a big deal to
    insert an element especially with the powerful XML tools in AS3.
    You can create a function that will preprocess all XML "page"
    nodes and insert an extra <p> tag after each <p> tag
    (see attached code)
    I did not check if code works - it is just a concept.
    The same approach can be taken with rob's suggestion but
    inside the <p> element that comes with the XML.

  • Insert static picture between thumbnails and sliding pictures

    Hello everybody,
    I try to create a fullscreen slideshow behind a static picture with transparent areas in muse ... unsuccessfully!
    In the fullscreen background should be the changing pictures.
    Over these sliding pictures, one static picture with transparent areas, fullscreen (important!), so that you can see parts of slideshow.
    And in the foreground has to be the thumbnails and buttons trigger to control slideshow.
    How can I insert a static picture between thumbnails and sliding pictures?
    Thank you!

  • Lightbox slideshow opens by itself after closing

    I have lightbox slideshows on a page and after I open them by clicking on a thmbnail and then close them they start opening again on their own without me clicking on a thumbnail.  This started happening after the latest update.  Is this a bug?

    Hi Gary,
    I checked your file and it seems that this is happening when the lightbox is closed using the close button and you have 'Resume After' checked. This is replicate-able on a new site as well.
    At this point, I have reported this to the engineering team. In the mean time as a work around remove the close button as clicking outside the target closes the lightbox anyways.

  • Deleting multiple images at once in Mues's Lightbox slideshow

    I frequently need to delete 70 or 80 images from Muse's Lightbox slideshow before adding new images. Because you have to leave at least one image (at least that's my understanding) before adding new ones, I have to delete them one at a time. It's a real pain. It would be nice to be able to shift click or control click on the images I want to delete so I can do it in one move instead of eighty. Can this function be added or is there a work around or something I'm missing that would let me do this? I've tried selecting one, then clicking on 'select same' but there is no way to exclude one image so that I can leave one image behind.

    Zak... Selecting one thumbnail > Select all > Delete worked just as you said; it leaves one image behind. I never would have tried that method because logically I would have thought that it would delete all the images since I chose 'Select all'. Thanks for the quick response and saving me a lot of work... Bill

  • Launch lightbox slideshow by clicking on pic or text?

    Hi guys,
    Last question for tonight, it's the big one: how can I configure something so that upon click, it'll launch a lightbox image or slideshow?
    For example:
    - If I have a pic in a text box that is essentially acting as a thumbnail, and I have in text, "Click below to embigify!" so clicking on the pic launches a larger version in a lightbox. Possibly not a larger version of the thumbnail, as on the lightbox verison I may have it cropped differently, etc. So, I want to be able to configure them both independently, one will launch the other.
    - Same goes for if clicking on a pic would lauch a lightbox slideshow. ("Click pic to launch slideshow!") Maybe the pic they're clicking is just a graphic icon or something, and not actually something that'll appear in the slideshow. Click the icon to launch.
    - Same goes for some selected text, clicking would launch lightbox pic or slideshow.
    Really hope this is a achievable in Muse. Thanks yet again!

    Abhishek, I have done this very thing, but my lightbox slideshows don't start on image 1. They start on random images each time they are opened. Here is the thread (I show the settings of the composition and the slideshow itself): How do I get a lightbox slideshow to start on the first image in Muse?
    and here is my test site: Portfolio
    Is this a bug, or pray tell, do you have a solution?
    Also, this configuration is not working on the bottom row of trigger squares on the iPad. When you touch a box, you should see the words on the square (the rollver state of the trigger) .  It quickly shows, then disappears and then the square of words in the row above highlights instead. And there is no way to open the bottom row of slideshows. It works fine on the desktop. I was trying to avoid creating a separate tablet configuration, but I don't even know what I would do differently.
    But any help with the FIRST problem would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • How do I delete extra spacing between paragraphs?

    I have created a PDF but when I edited some sentences, it left extra spacing between paragraphs.  How do I adjust the format so it is double spaced and how do I get rid of the extra spacing?

    You don't, to be honest. Editing a PDF is a desperate last resort, for when the original is lost, cannot be had for any amount of money, and the backups were eaten by termites. So there is no situation ever in which you should be editing a PDF you created. Rather, make the correction and remake the PDF. Sorry to be blunt, but it's best to really understand how desperate you have to be to edit a PDF.
