Hello all... I apologize if this is up somewhere but I looked and couldn't find my answer. I have a curiosity: when going to the config page at http://www.example.com/admin/settings/thickbox There is an option titled "Image field options (CCK) - Image field gallery:" with several options. Does this configure any CCK image field to automatically use Thickbox? Will these display the preset and the original size on clicking for the AJAX window? Thanks.

To configure image fields to use Thickbox you need to go to a node types configuration page ("admin/content/node-type/…"). Under the tab "Display options" you find the relevant settings.

At admin/settings/thickbox you just decide how Thickbox should construct galleries.

Thank you for the reply... in that case I fail to understand what the various options do for the Thickbox galleries. I have changed them and see no effect. They are (in order):
Per page gallery
Per post gallery
Per field gallery
No gallery

What is the difference between the various options?

No help on this? I can't see to get any visible changes when I change the settings and there is no documentation even in the source...

Anyone know what these settings are supposed to do? Thanks in advance.

Thickbox can group images in galleries. This decides the next/previous navigation within the Thickbox.

Per page gallery - All images on the page will be considered one gallery
Per post gallery - All images in a single node will be considered one gallery
Per field gallery - All images in a single field will be considered one gallery
No gallery - No galleries at all, all images will be shown one by one.

Thanks... I'm going to keep playing with it to observe the settings.
