Description
Because I have random image sizes in my slideshow the block keeps re-sizing, whick in-turn moves the other blocks on that side of the page.
is it possible to set a fixed block size?

I am having a similar problem. Except I just want to completely remove the initial easing animation. I am looking through the functions but my javascript is still not that strong. Any suggestions?

If you want a fixed size and are familiar with php and css at all is this:
In couloir_slideshow.module and locate this code:
$html = '<!-- slideshow ' . $delta . ' --><div id="OuterContainer">
<div id="PhotoContainer">
<img id="Photo" src="' . $url . '/img/c.gif" alt="Photo: Couloir" />
<div id="LinkContainer">
<a href="#" id="PrevLink" title="Previous Photo"><span>Previous</span></a>
<a href="#" id="ViewPhoto" rel="lightbox" title="View Photo"><span>View Photo</span></a>
<a href="#" id="NextLink" title="Next Photo"><span>Next</span></a>
</div>
</div>
</div>'
And add another DIV around the OuterContainer like so:
$html = '<!-- slideshow ' . $delta . ' --><div id="FixedContainer">
<div id="OuterContainer">
<div id="PhotoContainer">
<img id="Photo" src="' . $url . '/img/c.gif" alt="Photo: Couloir" />
<div id="LinkContainer">
<a href="#" id="PrevLink" title="Previous Photo"><span>Previous</span></a>
<a href="#" id="ViewPhoto" rel="lightbox" title="View Photo"><span>View Photo</span></a>
<a href="#" id="NextLink" title="Next Photo"><span>Next</span></a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>'
And then in /css/couloir.css add:
#FixedContainer {position:relative;
height: 500px;
width: 500px;
padding:0;
margin: 0 auto;
}
And make sure you set the correct dimensions that you want it fixed to. I have not tested this, so it may not work as expected, let me know if you need anymore help.
