Can we have the option to have custom thumbnail images complete with over images for the custom pagers? I know we can do this with css but then every button would have the same images for the background. I want to have a unique image for each pager thumbnail. The best way from a UI point of view would be to have a thumbnail and thumbnail over field that can be plugged into the custom pager.
Thanks.

ppblaauw commentedI think this is possible with the current module.
You can add another image for the pager to the content type and view to use it as pager image.
If you would combine the normal and hover state in these images you could change the states with css on hover by changing the position.
Hope this helps you further, please let me know

spgd01 commentedYes I know this is possible currently but it is a pain. Each thumbnail would need a separate ID and then separate CSS. Which is ok if you are only creating a one time slide show or navigation. But this is not good with a dynamic slide show that changes as the content changes. It is also a night mare for non html users to update. This is why I request it for a user interface that is automatic when the images are uploaded to a cck field.

ppblaauw commentedI don't understand your requirements with the answer in post #2
No separate IDs and changing of CSS is needed.
Also no HTML needed, just upload a separate image for the pager.
Your last sentence is what I tried to explain in post #1.

spgd01 commentedSorry if I confused you. With creating an image rollover is CSS for multiple buttons with different images for each button, you need to use ID's to change the images with the CSS hover state. The only way to change images with out IDs would be if we used only one image for all buttons.
So for a unique roll over image pager for each thumbnail it would be easier for the user (none html user) to have the feature programed into the slide show. Then jquery would be used for the rollover images. I hope this make sense.
I need this so that none programmer users can just upload two images for a pager roll over.
