Linking to a specific image in a gallery

Hi All,
I'm putting together a book where I have image references within the text of the chapters. Ideally, I'd like to be able to click on the image reference (text) such that an image appears as a gallery overlay, which would then allow me to view the image, zoom it, close it and come back to the text from where I clicked on the image reference.
I've been having some trouble doing this and am beginning to wonder if it is even possible in iBooks author. The only options I see are:
1. I insert the image inline; which is not an ideal solution for me in this case as there are a lot of images referred to from a single page and inserting them would crowd the page or make it too long
2. I insert an image gallery on every page, or at the end of a section or chapter; however when doing this two issues appear. a) I am unable to link from text to a specific image in a gallery (I can only link to the gallery but always the first image opens), and b) when exiting the gallery I am not taken back to the referring page from which I clicked to go to the gallery
3. Insert the images on separate pages in a chapter of their own; again the same issue crops up here - I am unable to go back to the referring page once done viewing the image.
I am pretty sure I'm missing something, as this must be a fairly basic requirement for book publishers. I am wondering if there is a lightbox style gallery widget or other functionality in ibooks author that I can use; or perhaps some settings that I am not aware of.
To recap, I'm looking to link text within a page to an image that would ideally open up on the same page; and once I'm done viewing the image for me to get back to the text I was previously viewing.
Thanks for your attention and assistance in advance.

You can't link to an image without bracketing that image with (hidden) text.
You can link to an individual image in a galllery.
Linking to an image that blows up on the same page is not a feature of iBA.
Automactically returning to a hyperkinked bookmarked from the target is not a feature of iBA.
If these are features you demand now, build an app.
If these are feature you'd like to maybe see in the future, use iBA's feedback menu and make your requests heard. Good luck.

How do I go from a link to a specific image in a slideshow?

I have a two-part question.
1. How do I go from a link to a specific image in a slideshow? If you take a look at the attached screenshot, here's what I'd like to accomplish. I wan to click on a link like B for examply at the top of the page. It scrolls down the page to ANCHOR "b" where I have a slide show. Once it scrolls down, I would like to have the slideshow to slide over to the image set that matches the link that was clicked. in this case, if i click on B at the top, the slideshow would slide to image set "B".
2. Each piece of work I want to display has three images. One which is our main image seen inside the black outlined box below. There are however two additional images tied to each piece being shown. What is the best way to set this up? The default way of using the slideshow is limiting.

Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you as I have the same problem!
I want to link images on one page to certain slides on another.
Have you had any luck solving this?
I've spent hours looking for a solution... I'm very frustrated!!!
Will post again if I get some answers.
Best of luck

David, as of right now there is no way to click a link and have it go to a speficic image inside of a slideshow on another page. It will only show the first image in the slideshow on that other page.
So, perhaps you could just have the image you want to jump to on the other page, be the first image in the slide show. Make sense?

Link to high resolution image in web gallery

Hello.
Is there any way to include a link to a high or full resolution image using the web gallery creation tool? (similar to the option available in various jAlbum galleries)
So sorry if this is a repeat question...

Gallery composition with link/anchor to a specific image

Hello everyone,
Is there a way go to a page that has a gallery composition in it and being able to show the page with a specific image in the gallery?... So if I have five images on the gallery, the link to the page might include the name of the image or anchor name and when the link is clicked it will land showing that image.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
You can try creating the gallery using widgets and then use 'Hyperlink' to link the individual images to other pages in Muse site.

Link thumbnails in separate page to specific images in Easy Rotator?

Hello.
I have a a web page with a grid of 16 thumbnail images.
I have a separate web page running an Easy Rotator Slideshow.
I want to be able to click on a thumbnail and have Easy Rotator start with it's corresponding image rather than from the start.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for your reply!
I'm sorry, but I don't have hosting yet. I copied and pasted the code below
from the Easy Rotator Website. I'm able to open the Rotator (on a separate
webpage), but only from the beginning. That's as far as I've been able to
get.
I don't understand the following instructions (below the code).
I can't figure out how to link thumbnails to their corresponding images in
the rotator. I also have multiple thumbs that I need to link.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give based on what I've been able to
send.
Then, to link to a specific photo in the rotator, link to that rotator's
page using er_col in the querystring. The er_col value should be the
zero-base numeric index of the slide. For example, if you want to link to
the third slide (index 2) in the rotator in gallery.html, use the following
link:
gallery.html?er_col=2
When the gallery.html page loads, the rotator will jump to the third slide.
If your rotator has multiple image categories, you can link to a specific
category via the er_row parameter. As with er_col, er_row should be the
zero-base index of the category. Building on our previous example, let's
suppose you want to link to the third photo in the second category. Here's
the link you would use:
gallery.html?er_row=1&er_col=2
Thank you!

How do I link to a specific Hero Image from another page?

Hi Laura,
I am afraid that this is not possible in Muse at this stage, I will recommend that you post this on our ideas section over here, https://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas, and let our devs team know of this requirement.
As a work around I will suggest that you create a dedicated page with this panel opened when you publish and link that page with the text that you want. Let me know if you need more clarification on this.

How to create a dynamic link in a Form to link to a specific FOLDER

Hello,
I have created a reports of all employees of my department.
This reports shows me the empno and ename
When I clicked on a empno ( for example empno = 1 ) then then I got a MASTER DETAIL FORM about that employee(empno = 1) .
Who he or she is and which course he or she had followed.
I want create a dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM which shows me directly the folder of that employee ( in this example folder 1 ).
If I clickt on the report with all employees of my department on an other number ( for example empno = 3333333) then if I click on the dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM I want to see the folder of employee 3333333 !!! You know what I mean ?
What I want to know is, how to create a dynamic link that shows me directly a folder which is dependent on which empno I had clicked on in the report ( report with employee numbers and ename )
Is there any way to pass some parameters into a link to a Folder ? Is this possible in Portal ? Does anyone know how to do this, or do you have a suggestion how to solve this problem ?
Thanks a lot !!!
Chu Lam

Hi Chetan,
I am glad that someone had replied on my question.
I will explain it to you again.
I have created a report that shows me all employees. If I click on a employee number then I get an MASTER DETAIL FORM on my screen with all the information(where he works now and which number I have to dial ifhow can I reach him by telephone) of that employee on which number I clicked on.
I really like this mechanism. (You click on a number and the information that you see in the next screen is dependent of the number you clicked on ! )I have created all this. It works fine.
What I want is to expand this example.
Every employee has a FOLDER (yes, those ones in Content Area ) which they can insert text or image into that folder. The folder name is just the employee number. ( employee with employee number 3303, he owns a folder which is named 3303 and an employee with empno 9999, he or she owns a folder with the name 9999. )
Every employee can tell more about himself in that FOLDER by iserting text and images. For example : What he likes, pictures of his vacation, something like this.
What I want is this :
If I click on the first report,which provides me all employees on screen, on a employee number 3303 then I get a Master Detail Form on my screen with all information about that employee with employee number 3303. And I want in this MASTER DETAIL FORM to create a link that shows me directly the FOLDER of that employee ( 3303), so I can learn more about employee with employee number 3303. But I don't know how to create this link.
That link had to be dependent on the employee number. The difficult thing about this link is that this link had to be dynamic.
I hope this will make it clear to you :
(report all employees:)
empno ename
3301 john smith
3302 peter clark
3303 wilson jones
If I click on a empno ( for example 3303) then I get a MASTER DETAIL FORM which provides me information.
(MASTER DETAIL FORM )
EMPNO 3303
ENAME wilson jones
department New York
mobile number 98908763
Company tel. no day
AOL 097485838 monday till wednesday
Oracle 04848584333 thursday and friday
LINK
(what I want is to create a link here )
If I click on LINK in this MASTER DETAIL FORM then I want to link to the FOLDER of this employee ! ( In this example it is FOLDER 3303.
BUT IF I CLICKED ON THE FIRST REPORT ON A DIFFERENT NUMBER ( FOR EXAMPLE 3301) THEN IF I CLICK ON LINK IN THE MASTER DETAIL FORM THEN I HAVE TO LINKED TO FOLDER 3301.
I just want to know how to make a link like this ( create a dynamic link to a specific folder ).
Thanks in Advance.

Linking to a specific location in a web page is not working

Hello,
I am using anchor tags for linking to a specific location in a web page . This Page contains some images(.bmp).
Eg:
<h2><a name="exactline">Linking Directly to a Specific Location</a></h2>
<a href="http://www.example.com/some-page-or-other.aspx#exactline">Click here</a>
Whenever I click on the link it moves to specific location but when the page get loaded completely , top of the page is being displayed.
My question is how can I make this link redirects directly to the particular section and stays there even after the page loads fully.
Thanks

Hi ,
When you click your link "Click here", the SharePoint web page with anchor will not work until refresh the page, if it's the case, you can add the javascript code to refresh the page automatically as workaround per the following similar post.

How do I find the image name and media_link for an ubuntu image in the Gallery?

I am trying to create VM using Python API.
I have a custom Linux image:
image_name = 'cloudN-Azure-20150205-os-2015-02-05'
media_link = 'https://portalvhds10ssz63zgvb9g.blob.core.windows.net/vhds/cloudN-Azure-20150205-os-2015-02-05.vhd'
When I used this image to create VM, it failed.
I would like to use the ubuntu 1204 image in the Gallery.
How do I specify the image_name and media_link in my Python code? Basically, where and how do I find the image name and media_link for an image in the Azure image Gallery?
Thanks in advance...

hi sir,
Did you try to use "List OS Image"? we can get the property form the results:
result = sms.list_os_images()
for image in result:
print('Name: ' + image.name)
print('Label: ' + image.label)
print('OS: ' + image.os)
print('Category: ' + image.category)
print('Description: ' + image.description)
print('Location: ' + image.location)
print('Affinity group: ' + image.affinity_group)
print('Media link: ' + image.media_link)
print('')
Please try it. Any questions or it doesn't work, please let me know.

Will

No Thumbs or Main Image with Spry Gallery Demo

Hi everyone, DW CS3 newbie here.
I hope this topic hasn't been beaten into the ground yet.
I'm trying to put together a site
(members.cox.net/rangersbu9/gallery.html) for my son's soccer team
and am running into a wall getting the original, dynamic Spry
gallery demo to work. I've done my best to collect and modify the
required files and place them appropriately but, when the files are
loaded on the live server (the wrap div contents are all but
invisible when I view with IE7 locally, apparently due to the PC
not be set up as local server) the thumbs are 'x's and the main
image is a 1px x 1px dot.
The controls will highlight between the empty thumbs and the
gallery pull-down will select between the two options I've put in
the XML file but that's about it. Perhaps it is my ignorance, but
it seems like a ( src= ) tag is missing in the 'mainImageOutline'
div because I cannot understand where the main picture is coming
from otherwise.
Any insight from the source at the link above? Please keep in
mind I have two week's experience with DW and website building but
do have a programming background (from a few decades ago :->). I
believe I have the un-updated CS3 Spry version, if that matters.
Many thanks to Don and others here for posts that have helped
me get this far.
-Kurt

Update:
Got the thumbs to appear. Had them physically sized larger
than the XML fields stated. However, they will not grow/shrink. In
digging through gallery.js, I see that those two functions call
Spry.Effects.SizeAndPosition() - I cannot find that function in any
of the includes (i.e. SpryEffects.js). Spry.Effects.Size yes, but
not SizeAndPosition. Wondering if this gallery.js calls a later
version of SpryEffects.js than I currently have installed (it's
Spry 1.4). I will download 1.6 and check it out but if anyone has
any other input, please let me know.
Still no main image. In gallery.js I found ShowCurrentImage()
which had a hardcoded path to the images that did not match mine.
Corrected the path but no change.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I created a website with iWeb but use GoDady for hosting it rather than MobileMe. The images on my Gallery page do not show at all on the external domain but they DO show when seen on MobileMe. Has anyone encountered this problem before? Many thanks!

Hello al!
I created a website with iWeb but use GoDady for hosting it rather than MobileMe. The images on my Gallery page do not show at all on the external domain but they DO show when seen on MobileMe. Has anyone encountered this problem before? Many thanks!

Just create a new page (or use the existing photo page) on your external site and use html to add an iframe sized to the page and link it to the mobilme gallery page. Works for me just fine when showing my gallery from a yahoo site.
like this
<iframe scrolling="off" allowTransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="yes" style="width:100%;height:100%;border:none" src="http://gallery.me.com/your_account_name"></iframe>

Can you trace which Indesign files link to a specifik image?

I have an image database, that multiple Indesign files link to.
I am not the original author of the Indesign files nor the image database, so I have no overview of how many Indesign files links to each image.
And now I have an image I would like to make a change in - but I am afraid to do so, when I do not know in which Indesign files the image is used.
So my question is - is there a way to track links made to a specific image in any Adobe programme?

May be Flow could do the trick for you....?

ps. I have not used it myself, so I really can´t say if it solves your problem....

How can I link to a slideshow image on a separate page?

I would like to link images on my homepage to specific images in a slideshow on my "Work" page. Currently I'm simply linking to anchored points on the "Work" page where corresponding slideshow thumbnails are, but I would like to eliminate the step of clicking on the "Work" thumbnail to open the slideshow. Is this possible, and if so, how do I go about doing this?
Thanks so much

Hello,
Unfortunately this is currently not possible to achieve in Adobe Muse.
User would need to click on the thumbnail to view the image. Anchor links cannot take users to specific slides/images in a Widget.
I would suggest you to post this as a feature request on our "Ideas for features in Adobe Muse" section of the forums : http://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas

Saving images from Muse gallery.

Hi,
My client has recently addressed an inquiry to me. He was trying to download images from any gallery-page on the website that i designed from him: http://www.andreyisakov.com
It is a simple gallery created with a lightbox slideshow widget.
However, it is only possible to save the entire webpage, i.e. the gallery as a whole. There seems to be no way to save a single image (tried in Safari and Chrome both on Win and Mac).
Does anybody know the solution to the problem or a workaround making it possible to save images from Muse gallery?
Many thanks in advance!

Hi
Users can save the image displayed on page with a right click action > save image.
Are you looking for some specific function for saving image files on page ?
Thanks,
Sanjit

JS CS2 Call out specific image in script

I've never had to do anything with images in scripting, and I'm unclear whether I need to use "links", "images", "graphics"...so I came here. For everything I've found here so far, people are dealing with all images in a document. I just want to perform an action on a specific image, not all. (example: "logo.eps")
I have the same image in each document twice - once on the left master page and once on the right master page. It's a logo, and we've just added the registered mark to it, so we need to update it on all of our documents. The new image is the same name, so I need to:
*Update both links to the image
*Fit frame to content to both (the (R) makes the logo wider)
*On the left-hand master page, 'fit frame to content' widens the frame to the right. I need the right edge of the logo to stay on the right margin
I don't want to "fit frame to content" for all images, because some frames for other images may have been purposely sized--I don't want those to change.
Suggestions? (Unfortunately, we're still on CS2)

Hi Loic,
Thanks! It seems like a good start. It's not exactly working, but I'll see if I can adjust it myself from here. (For example, it's only updating the logo on the left master page. The one on the right page is not updating.) If I can't, I'll be back...
