Topic: Padding Behavior

When I adjust the stage padding it affects the buttons as well. Normally that would be ok but when the nav buttons are set on the image it moves them in as well towards the middle of the main image.

If this is by design it needs to be changed where the padding doesn't affect the nav buttons when they are on the main image.

(I needed to alter the stage padding because the thumbnails by default rest at the very bottom of the screen for some reason.)

Re: Padding Behavior

Thank you for reporting this problem.
It does, indeed, look like a bug.
I have notified the developers and hopefully this will be fixed in the next version.

In the meantime, perhaps you could embed your gallery in a parent container and apply a CSS margin or padding to the parent container instead.
Otherwise, using a small amount of thumbPadding may also be a suitable workaround.

Re: Padding Behavior

Will things like thumbPadding (and other options like the social buttons bar) be added as pro options in svmanager down the line so as not to have to navigate the xml files?

It seems at this time JB doesn't have as much ease of configuration as simpleviewer and other previous galleries.

Re: Padding Behavior

svManager already has full support for all Juicebox-Pro configuration options (including thumbPadding) in its interface.
When creating or editing a Juicebox-Pro gallery in svManager, just click on the 'Pro' tab. (The thumbPadding configuration option is labelled as Space between thumbs (px)).

Make sure that you are using the current version of svManager (v1.8.6).
You can download the latest version of svManager using the download link from your purchase email.

Re: Padding Behavior

I have the most current one. (version 1.8.6, build 131129 according to the admin screen) I still don't see an interface for the new social media buttons option (I assume because that a fairly new thing) I also don't see the option for the main image corner radius.


Here are a couple things I noticed and one suggestion:
On mobile devices when you have a caption it gets cut off on the bottom of a device (Image here - ttp://i58.tinypic.com/9sa238.png) and in thumbnail view the title of the gallery is visible even tho' it's turned off in desktop versions. (This was also an issue I had with SV) Also the home icon doesn't appear when it's just the thumbnails on a mobile device. You have to view one of the actual images to see it. (Don't know if that's on purpose)

Also, I know this is not the place for this I thought I would mention it: With svmanager have you guys considered having tooltips over the options to give a simple brief description of what the options do when you hover over them with the mouse? Things like "show in small screen mode". No idea what that means without having to stop what I am doing and look thru the documentation. If it had a simple blurb over it (Like how photoshop does with it's tools etc) it would expedite people's workflow I think.

Thank you for pointing this out. I have notified the developers.

Try increasing your gallery's maxCaptionHeight from its current value of 80 to perhaps its default value of 120.

in thumbnail view the title of the gallery is visible even tho' it's turned off in desktop versions.

This will be fixed in the next version of Juicebox-Pro. (The gallery title will not be displayed in Small Screen Mode if galleryTitlePosition="NONE".)

Also the home icon doesn't appear when it's just the thumbnails on a mobile device. You have to view one of the actual images to see it.

This is by design to maximize the amount of space available for thumbnails on small screen devices.

With svmanager have you guys considered having tooltips over the options to give a simple brief description of what the options do when you hover over them with the mouse?

Thank you for the suggestion.
We use rollover tooltip text for many input field labels in Showkase, another one of our products which you might be interested in. For more information on the differences between svManager and Showkase, please see here.

Re: Padding Behavior

Thanks for the info.

I looked at showkase but it's more than I need for my purposes and I already bought svmanager so I'd prefer to use that instead of letting it go to waste.

Re: Padding Behavior

When I adjust the stage padding it affects the buttons as well.

This bug has now been fixed in v1.4.0. Please see this blog entry for details.
