Photo gallery  en

Hi I am looking to create a photo gallery with a description on the bottom when the pictures are viewed. I would like to have 4 pictures on the page but when each picture is clicked it will open a gallery in a lightbox for that group. I have tried using the polaroid object but 2 things wrong with it. 1. the pictures will not sit horizontal as one picture 2. I cannot add a caption/information text to them.

cheers,

William, why not simply use a cell, use style (right click) to give is a title and description, and then link the photo to a showbox, add all photos and the user can scroll through.

OR

If you want an auto-run slide show (with descriptions of each photo if required), simply create a page, call it slideshow1, highlight, click properties and under graphic, select create without template. Highlight page again, select hide

Now add your slide show.

From your main page, link the photo to the hidden page and select open in showbox.

I have attached a small project to demonstrate (WX5 V14 PRO).

If that does not meet your need, let us know?

Hi Esahc, thanks for that. Thats as far as I have got with it but I wish the pictures to have the description show when they open in the showbox. In your example the picture on the left is closest to what I would like to have only with a description for each picture when viewed in the showbox. Hope this makes sense lol

cheers

Check out the pic on the right. As a full slideshow you can add a unique description to each pic.
