Popups

"Popups" appear as a separate browser window when slideshow content is clicked. The windows display a larger version of the same image a user clicked in your slideshow.

Note: Popups can only be used with a slideshow published using content from your Lightroom Library. They are not compatible with slideshows exported from Lightroom that use SlideShowPro Director or Media RSS as their data type.

Popup appearance

By default, popup functionality is included with your published slideshows. If you'd rather not offer them, you may turn them off by unchecking the POPUPS/Use Popups checkbox.

Popup image size

To modify the height and width of popup images, modify IMAGES/Popup Width and IMAGES/Popup Height. Popup images use the same image quality setting as the rest of the images in your slideshow.

Popup type

There are two types of popups: "SWF" and "Image". When choosing "SWF" (the default), a larger version of the image is loaded as part of a SWF that also includes a loading animation, the image title, image description, and an inline "close" button to close the window. When choosing "Image", the larger version of the image is loaded by itself in a new browser window.

Popup type: SWF

Window size

The overall height and width of popup windows is dictated by the dimensions of the image you are loading and the height of the text fields underneath. If an end-user's screen resolution is too low to support the window dimensions, the browser window will scale to the largest possible size, then proportionally downscale the requested image to fit the window. An end-user may adjust the dimensions of the window manually, and the popup image and accompanying text will reformat to fit.

Preloader

Popups offer the same preloader animation options as your main slideshow, with "Beam" the default setting. You may change this to any of the other animation styles, as well as adjust their scale, color and alpha transparency through the POPUP panel.

Typography

Popups display image titles and captions at the bottom of the window. The typeface that's used is the same as the one used for your main slideshow, and is set through the TYPOGRAPHY/General and TYPOGRAPHY/Headers parameters. Both text fields share the same point size and color, which can be controlled through POPUP/Type Color and POPUP/Type Size.
