Eliminate White Space in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

On my site, I am using picture library slideshow web parts on two different pages, and one of them is giving me trouble with unwanted white space between the photos and the back, pause, forward control buttons (see photo below).
In an attempt to resolve this issue, I have tried numerous things. I have resized the width and height of the web part itself to many different sizes, but to not avail. I have cropped and resized all of the photos to be the exact same size of 300x200
pixels. I have used CSS to display the photos to their actual size rather than the standard preview size. With all of this in mind, my second photo library web part on another page works perfectly. This was white space problem was only an issue until
I resized/cropped the photos in that case. For this page, however, that solution is not working.
Does anyone have any clue as to how I can remove this unwanted white space?
Thank you!

Hi Stacey,
From your description, you would like to remove white space in picture library slideshow web parts. You used CSS to solve it however a web part still show white spaces.
Please press F12 and see if there is div tag in white space, if there is, try remove it.
http://365.webbrewers.com/Pages/webbrewerstest.aspx
In addition, try edit web part properties > Display with > choose No Title or Description.

How can I fix the image size in a "Picture Library Slideshow Web Part"

When I upload images to be used in the Slideshow Web Part they become skewed because they are different sizes. Is there a way to fix this besides uploading images that are all the same size?
Thanks,
Kathleen

Display Slide Show Images within fixed size
The Picture Library Slide Show Web Part show the images stored in a picture library with slide show effect.
This slide show web part displays the images with it's original size. Due to this the web part changes its size according to the image size. If we want the slide show to run within the specific size on the page then we need to control the size of the images
to the fixed length during runtime.
To achieve this we need to add the CEWP above the picture Library Slide Show web part & insert the following script in that web part.
<style type="text/css">
.ms-WPBody TD {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: auto !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-WPBody TD DIV {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-WPBody TD IMG {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 260px !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
190px !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px; align: center
.s4-wpcell-plain {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-PartSpacingVertical {
    MARGIN-"color:#783f04;font-family:'Courier New',Courier,monospace;" />}
.style1 {
    COLOR: #808080
}</style>
We can fix the height & width of the image in the .ms-WPBody TD IMG css.

How to display original images in SlideShow web part
Step 1. Save below JavaScript code to file, for example in SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt and upload it to SiteAssets Library
<script type="text/javascript">
function SlideshowObjectInitializer() {
ShowPic = (function(ShowPicOrig) {
return function() {
var ssObj = arguments[0]; //SlideShow object
var curPicIdx=ssObj.index; //current picture index
ShowPicOrig.apply(this, arguments); //call original ShowPic
//apply some changes to display original picture in SlideShow control
ssObj.image.src = ssObj.linkArray[curPicIdx]; //display original image instead of web image
//change picture & container size to auto instead of fixed (by default web image size is used)
ssObj.image.setAttribute('height','100%');
ssObj.image.setAttribute('width','100%');
var cell = ssObj.cell;
cell.style.width = 'auto';
cell.style.height = 'auto';
cell.style.display = '';
var pcell = ssObj.cell.parentNode;
pcell.style.width = 'auto';
pcell.style.height = 'auto';
})(ShowPic);
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(SlideshowObjectInitializer, 'imglib.js');
</script>
Step 2. Add CEWP on page where Slideshow web part is located and in the Content Editor tool pane, under Content Link, type
/SiteAssets/SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt.

Remove empty space in Picture Library Slideshow web part

I'm using Picture Library Slideshow web part in one of my pages. The web part itself is working fine, but I'm a bit annoyed by the white space the web part is consuming.
The web part puts lots of empty space between the web part header and the picture and also to the bottom of the web part.
The Slideshow web part generates the CSS on the fly, so I cannot really get a control of it cause it doesn't have any static CSS classes(that I know of, at least).
How could I get rid of these white spaces?

Hi Pekch,
Thanks for your post.
You can achieve this using JQuery.
1.
Download
JQuery to your SharePoint Server, and then add a Content Editor Web Part to the page;
2.
View the source code using IE developer(Press F12), the code likes below:
<td style="width: 195px; height: 213px;">
                <div style="..." id="MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart_ctl00_m_g_ffa17524_ffa7_44e7_974c_1756a39257b9_cell">
                </div>
</td>
3.
So now, you can find the control whose id is started with “MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart” using the JQuery Code below:
jQuery('div[@id^=”MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart”]')
4.
Remove the style of the “div” and his parent “td”. Because there is a “Width” attribute in both levels.

Picture Library Slideshow Web Part - Is it possible to switch between two image librarys in one slideshow

In our office we have a screen at the front desk that runs a PP slideshow showing welcome messages to guests arriving.
SharePoint may not be the solution, but the overall objective is to find a way to have a library of X number of photos (say the library size is 30 images) and a separate library of X number of welcome messages (usually ~5 images).
We want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from the 1st pool and then play the images in the 2nd Pool.
Let me know if you have heard of a solution similar to this. Thanks!

Hi Twirlz03,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display teo picutre libraries in a picture slideshow web part in SharePoint 2010.
By default, one Picture Slideshow web part only display images fron one specifical picutre library, it is unable to apply for multiple picture libraries.
You can try to utilize Content Query web part to aggregate picture items from the site collection or site. However, you mean that you want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from first library and then play the images in the second library, I’m afriad
that it is hard to achieve it.
More information about aggregating picture items , please refer to section 4 of the link below:

Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

I am able to create a slide show via Picture Library Slideshow Web Part but the title and description will not show up. I have tried all the options but
only the picture shows and not the picture title. I was hoping to have the picture title appear below the image. Can this be fixed or is it something I have to do without?
Thank you.

Hi Sarah,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show Title of the image under the image in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part.
I recommend to edit the Picture Library Slideshow Web Part and select Title only below image under Display with and make sure that the picture in the picture library has value in Title field.
Best regards.

Tagged items web part issue SP 2013

Hi,
we have configured Content tag cloud and we have two different issues.
1. we have configured to show the tags that are tagged under the current url by all users, but when we click on the tag, it shows all the documents that are tagged with that specific tag (from different sites), is this a known behavior.
2. For many of the tags, we don't see the documents in the Tagged items web part (some only shows in popular within 60 days tab but not in All tab)
We have run the full crawl and social maintenance timer job to fix some other issues earlier. I also read somewhere that we need to activate the content type syndication hub, but we already have many tags working fine. what is the relation to the content
type syndication hub.
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Senthil,
#1. Yes. If we click a tag in the Tag Cloud web part, it will redirect use to the tag profile page for this tag.
And all the items tagged by the tag will be displayed in this tag profile page.
#2. This issue may be due to the incremental crawl miss some tagged items or tags.
I recommend to run a full crawl and then check the results.
Per my knowledge, it has nothing to do with the content type syndication hub.
Best regards.
Thanks

You can try to populate from Webpart Galleries .
1 ) Go to Site collection Settings > Under Galleries > Web parts
2) Web Part Library > Library Tools > Documents > Click on New document
3) A pop up will open > in that search for
Web Part Type Name :Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.PictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart

Advanced search web part issue

hi,
i am implementing a advanced search web part , and in that property restrictions, i have added 2 doument library columns [ not the site columns ]
from my subsite in my site collection.
but when i give some search keywords and perform search, i am not able to get the search results in terms of documents/content.
any extra settings do i need to do for performing advanced search
1) Do i really need site columns to be created under the site collection , in order to be searchable ?
if i create a simple document library column and cant i get it in the crawled properties section
in the central admin's search serv appln's search schema section?
pls advice

As per my understanding you can crawl DL columns
Can you get that document in search results page? Please check to see if the site which contains the library is included in content source.
Could you please check site settings->Site Administration->Searchable columns, maybe the column is excluded?
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/b97a43b1-c727-4daa-a0d9-a18e53e09dd9/list-and-document-library-title-column-crawled-properties?forum=sharepointadminprevious
Go to your Search Service Application in Central Administration.
Click on Metadata Properties in the left navigation.
Click on the Crawled Properties link.
Click on the Categories link then select the SharePoint category
Navigate the pages (next page arrow link) until you see ows_Title. Click on ows_Title.
In the "Mappings to Metadata Properties" area of this page, ensure that the "Include values for this property in the search index" checkbox is checked, then Click OK. This checkbox is not checked by default.
Repeat the same procedure above for your ows_Description crawled property to confirm that it is included in the index - which it should be by default.
Start a Full Crawl
This will now include these crawled properties in the index and should now be available in the Managed Property which exposes them for Search.

Web-part issue after migrating from 2010 to 2013

Hello all
Correct me if I am posting this question in the wrong section.
The background is: Migrating and Upgrading SP2010 to SP2013. I did it, and alot of it works, as it should, though I have one issue.
I did deploy all the solutions to both the 14 and 15 hive, and activated all the propper features. Now, I have one web-part which breaks down. It is a Web-part that communicate with a SAP endpoint, to retrive some data and show dem. The Web-part work fine in
the 2010 environment.
As soon as I enter the site where the Web-part is placed in, I am being redirected to the "Maintanence Web-part, error message". If I delete the Web-part I can access the site with no errors. The code works fine in 2010.
The error I am getting is "value cannot be null".
Unexpected System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: uriString at System.Uri..ctor(String uriString) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite..ctor(String requestUrl) at MyWebPart.Core.ListConfiguration.<>c__DisplayClass1.<GetKeyValue>b__0()

No, I did not migrate the content from 2010 web-config to the 2013 server. This is something I will take a look at, to see if there are some missing points in the config-file of 2013.
And just to be sure, when we are talking about the config file, it is the one who is associated with the Web-applikation? So, IIS --> WebApp --> Explorer --> and that web.config?

Slideshow Web Part item limit

I've got a picture library with over 700 images (and growing) but the web part, set to display sequentially, is only showing 300 images before looping. When it's set to random it shows more!?! I need it to display sequentially as people are going to be
going through the images and filling in an excel spreadsheet when they recognise someone in the image. If it's set to random it's going to give them a stinking headache! Is there any way of disabling the limit on sequential order?? If not, what are my options?
So far, the slideshow is the only way I've found to display the images quickly (without having to click on each pic in the library, which will be a very slow process), and not being able to change this very restrictive limit is incredibly frustrating (and
shortsighted on Microsoft's part)!
The only other option I could think of was multiple picture libraries linking to multiple web parts. Is this really all I can do??

People have asked similar questions on LinkedIn and SharePoint Stack Exchange, and it seems there is a 300 limit when displaying sequentially, 1500 when displaying randomly. You could look at using some custom web parts. Amrein Engineering have a few: Image
Rotator, Banner Rotator and Slideshow. None of them are expensive and you could ask them first if there are any limits.
