All my options are working properly except for one. I'd like the thumbnails to be hidden by default, but to have the thumbnail button displayed so that they can be used if the viewer wants them. The other options work

        useFlickr="false"
    galleryTitle="<%= escape(trim(model.nonCSS.jb_galleryTitle)) %>"
    textColor="<%= rgba(model.nonCSS.jb_textColor_, model.nonCSS.jb_textOpacity) %>"
    thumbFrameColor="<%= rgba(model.nonCSS.jb_thumbColor_, model.nonCSS.jb_thumbOpacity) %>"
    showOpenButton="<%= model.nonCSS.jb_showOpenButton %>"
    showExpandButton="<%= model.nonCSS.jb_showExpandButton %>"
    showThumbsButton="TRUE"
    useThumbDots="<%= model.nonCSS.jb_useThumbDots %>"
    useFullscreenExpand="<%= model.nonCSS.jb_useFullscreenExpand %>"
    showThumbsOnLoad="FALSE"
    showImageOverlay="NEVER"
    showOverlayOnLoad="FALSE"
    thumbSelectedFrameWidth="4"
    showNavButtons="TRUE"
    showInfoButton="TRUE"
    captionPosition="OVERLAY"
    galleryTitlePosition="NONE"
    thumbHoverFrameWidth="2"

Thanks very much

Steven:

Thanks for the reply. I have been working on this and I'm still having problems.

I understand from what you write that generally options controlled from the user interface should be controlled that way, and most others can be controlled through the config.xml file. Some options, but just a few, should be controlled through editing the index.html file.

However, perhaps I am missing something but when I enter code like this into the config.xml file it does not work:

    showNavButton="TRUE"
    captionPostion="NONE"

and yet

    thumbSelectedFrameWidth="3"

does work.

Is there something non-logical going on like only the first value is getting picked up. I've experimented but don't understand what's happening.

Thanks - after clearing the cache this works.
