Topic: splash page with full thumbnail overview of the gallery

hi there,

is there a way i could get a splash page with a full thumbnail overview of the gallery? i searched the forum and found the solution of setting the screen mode to "small" and set the thumbnail rows/columns to a higher value. that works - but i miss the features of the "large screen mode" when viewing the gallery on a larger screen.

the question is, if i could have the best of both worlds: screen mode to "auto" and always a splash page with a thumbnail overview of the gallery?

thanks for your help in advance,
best, etienne

A Splash Page is a placeholder for the gallery: an image which, when clicked, displays the gallery itself.
This is different from the thumbnail grid displayed in Small Screen Mode.
If you always want the thumbnail grid to be displayed, set screenMode="SMALL".
If you always want the Splash Page to be displayed, set showSplashPage="ALWAYS".

hi steven,

thanks for your quick reply.
and thanks for helping me out with my confusion here.

i want the thumbnail grid to be displayed always - so i set screenMode="SMALL". got that. but then in the gallery i am missing features that only show when screenMode="LARGE" (like buttons and gallery title ...). that's why i wanted to combine those two options:
having the thumbnail grid on the first page to give an overview before displaying the gallery itself in screenMode="AUTO".

any ideas?
etienne

This is not possible.
The only way to display the grid of thumbnails is to set screenMode="SMALL" but the Large Screen Mode configuration options will work only in Large Screen Mode. There is no way to mix or change the screen modes in a gallery.

thanks.
so a splash screen with a thumbnail grid of all gallery images in either screenMode would be a feature request (will post there).

The Splash Page always shows just a single image and a link to expand the gallery.

If you want to display a grid of thumbnails, set:
screenMode="SMALL" (in JuiceboxBuilder-Pro's 'Customize -> General' section)
showSplashPage="NEVER" ('Customize -> Splash Page')

The user will be able to expand the gallery via the Expand Button as long as you set showExpandButton="TRUE" ('Customize -> Lite').
