i like this module, it´s very easy compared to many other gallery modules. what i like most is the left area where all thumbnails are shown in one row! would be nice if you could make it a little bit more configurable.

* i´d like to disable the "Slideshow" button on my gallery
* i´d like to change the size of the thumbnail area - on my site it shows 2 rows with 7 images, i´d like to change this to 2 rows and 4 or 5 images
* when i click on a thumbnail the image is displayed on the right side. when i click the next thumbnail a scrollbar is added and the second image is shown above. i´d like to change this behaviour to just display the image i clicked and not all in one row.
* please make it configurable if a image is displayed in a new windows or opened with lightbox or colorbox. i think such "popup" windows are quite annoying and you must move the mouse to close it. not very handy to view a lot of images in original size.

btw.: when i click on slideshow - is there really no way back? i mean i must use the browser´s back button.

thank´s a lot for your help!

Hi,

- I'll be adding a permission that will allow you to disable the slideshow button, in next release.
- The size of the thumbnail area is really a CSS matter, the module tries to have sensible default CSS values, but you should have your own CSS if you want to customize appearance, I really don't think this belongs to module options. However if you really insist, I can see what I can do for that.
- I guess I'll make this an option in next release, since it's not the first time I hear this request.
- That would add a new dependency, I'm not a fan of this but maybe I could make something like a galerie_lightbox module that would enable that (and distribute it with the rest). Also, you can close tabs or windows on most browsers by typing ctrl+w, if you don't want to move your mouse (I'm not really into duplicating functionality already available from the browser).

- And what's wrong with the browser's back button? It's here for a reason.

Just checked something, with Drupal's default theme there are always three columns of thumbnails, so it really only depends on your theme and should be changed with CSS if you want.

Unless you're talking about the teaser view (on the homepage) ? Then it *should* display only one row as the module fixes the height at 90 pixels (and as many thumbnails as needed to fill the page width). If you have two rows there, then it is your theme that overrides Galerie's CSS, and once more the problem's on your side.

Now that I'm reading your post again I'm not sure which of these you are talking about though... as there should not be a place where thumbnails are shown in one row at the left side, I assumed you were talking about columns.

Well anyway. Also I won't use a permission to enable or disable the slideshow, but make it a per-gallery setting, like the "only one image shown at a time" setting.

I won't have time to release anything until next week though, anyway.

i´m not talking about the teaser view - i don´t use teaser. i have D7 with the default garland theme and there are 2 columns (sorry, rows was wrong!).

Oh right I'm sorry, I have modified that after last release. There should be three columns on the default theme in 1.x-dev and in next release. But it's still up to you to change that in CSS if you want something else.

Next release will come quite soon.

I've been looking at colorbox for displaying images in popups, but one blocking issue is that Flickr doesn't allow showing its pages in iframes. I will not include features that will not work with all providers, so...

Now, it's really not complicated for you to enable it yourself, if you don't use the Flickr provider, just install colorbox and add the "colorbox-load" class by overriding the galerie-image.tpl.php template. It works fine on local images for example. You will need to use iframes (add &iframe=true to the link) if your images have url links.

I need a "partially fixed" status.
