Topic: hidden thumbnail buttons and arrows

I haven't built a new gallery for a while and I'm having a problem adding a new gallery to an existing website using the preset I used for all the other galleries.

I'm using thumbnail buttons with a black background. When the gallery displays, all of the buttons except the first are not visible unless you move the cursor over one, in which case it becomes visible and active. The next and previous image arrows behave the same way, they are hidden until you hover over them.

I have a vague recollection that I encountered this in the past and was given a workaround but I cannot remember or locate it and I could be mistaken.

I'm running V1.4.3 on Mac OS 10.10.2. This is the first time I've run juicebox on this OS.

I appreciate any help!

Re: hidden thumbnail buttons and arrows

I'm running V1.4.3...

First of all, I'd recommend upgrading to the latest version (v1.4.4.2) as many bugs have been fixed since v1.4.3.
Please see the Version History for a list of changes between versions.
Instructions for upgrading can be found on the Upgrading Juicebox support page.

If you want to disable the auto hide functionality of the image overlay overlay, set inactivityTimeout="0" (in the 'Customize -> Main Image' section).

If you want the image overlay to always be displayed, set showImageOverlay="ALWAYS" instead of its default value of AUTO ('Customize -> Main Image').

If you want the image navigation buttons to always be displayed, set showImageNav="ALWAYS" ('Customize -> Main Image'). The image navigation buttons can be positioned relative to the STAGE or the IMAGE via the imageNavPosition configuration option (also in the 'Customize -> Main Image' section).

I hope this helps.

For reference, a complete list of configuration options can be found here.

If you continue to experience difficulties, please post the URL to your gallery so that I can take a look.
Also, let me know what you see and what you expect (or hope) to see so that I can hopefully help further.
(I'm not sure which button you mean when you say "all of the buttons except the first".)
Thank you.
