• No build this Friday

  There is no new Beta version this week. 8 Responses to “No build this Friday” Howard Rachlin Says: January 30th, 2007 at 3:05 pm Do you plan on making available the entire help as a pdf to make it easier to print out a manual? admin Says: January 30th, 2007 at 3:25 pm Howard, the Help files are still changing, and lagging the development and implementation of various features. It is a good suggestion for us to keep in mind once the Help files are finalized. Howard Rachlin Says: January 30th, 2007 at 6:34 pm Thanks for your prompt response. I have tried to customize theme #1 by clicking the Customize tab and then clicking the Header Bar Title Text. Where do I enter my new text? Header Bar Title Text shows in the bottom box but can not be changed. admin Says: January 31st, 2007 at 3:18 pm The theme editor is to control look and feel (graphics, colors, etc.). Text is controlled by what you enter elsewhere in the wizard. Gallery title is entered in Step 5, on the main tab. An important note for you and other readers of this blog: The current version is not feature complete, help files are not fully implemented and some features are not working correctly. Installing and running the program is meant to provide a “heads-up” of things to come and provide an opportunity for potential users to shape the features by providing feedback. The Beta version is currently provided on a “as is” basis; we do not have the resources for providing help at this stage. Please use this blog to post comments (feature requests, bug reports, usability issues, etc.). Please do not use this blog to post questions! Closer to the final release we will provide the appropriate means for offering product support as well as discussion forums. We appreciate your understanding, Shozam! Development Team Howard Rachlin Says: February 1st, 2007 at 8:26 am A suggestion - I’d like to be able to set the enlarged images to be shown as the default instead of requiring the viewer to click “Enlarge” paula Says: February 2nd, 2007 at 6:14 am Would like to have the images in sequence. Now, the last slide is in the #1 position and has to be manually moved to the last position. Thank you. rneagu Says: February 2nd, 2007 at 3:55 pm Howard, a workaround to displaying images in “Large view layout” is to have your main gallery page be the gallery index (the “contact sheet” view showing the thumbnails for all your gallery images. Then, when users click to see an image, they are taken automatically to the Large Page and can then go from image to image that way. It is unlikely the default navigation will be changed since our usability studies have shown viewers prefer to see the thumbnails at the same time (the QuickView layout) so they can jump around if they want to. rneagu Says: February 2nd, 2007 at 3:57 pm Paula, the images are aranged in the wizard when importing multiple images at once is a known issue and it is currently on the wishlist of features to be addressed. Thanks for the suggestion.   Posted Jan 26 2007, 03:03 PM by kkmcneel

• BETA version 2.0.0.34251

  RESOLVED: 5209 B2-W2-All-Image thumbnails drag-and-drop - The current functionality is unstable in XP because by default XP treats the drag as file move & it doesn’t get a target location with our program.. we are currently working on making it work with XP as well. 6128 B2 - Medium page having Video file has Javascript Error. 6122 B2 - Renaming Intro.swf to intro.swf in Themes so Intro animation works on case sensitive Linux Web servers 6108 B2 - Javascript Error 5235 B2-HTML-Map pages – image maps to show marker in “clicked” state 5234 B2-HTML-Map pages – show map text location when clicking on marker 5220 B2-W2-Map-Map Preview window to have more functionality 5219 B2-W2-Map-Map Preview window to show marker 5210 B2-W2-Image-Image thumbnails - short caption underneath BUILD STATE : Fairly stable except for file drag (on XP) functionality to add images/video to the album.
