The Spawn New Window action have been updated with the option to have the close button in the upper right corner instead of the upper left corner. The close buttons of all my SNW windows are now in the upper right.
Hoever I’m also using ScriptyLightbox

However I’m also using ScriptyLightbox2 and it seems that I can’t change the position of the close button for this action. Would this be a feature that could be added to this action? It would be extremely helpful.
Also, ScriptyLightbox2 has a wide black border around the window and rounded corners. Is there any chance that these can be changed (e.g. I’d prefer a border of only 1 px and no rounded corners). It would be nice if these could be changed.

Great suggestions, and they have been asked for repeatedly. Look for version 0.8 on ActionsForge, and let me know how it works for you. Note that if you have more than one instance of the Action on the page, they must all have the same settings. That’s because only one of them will “win” and add the styles to the head of the page.

Wow, thanks so much Walter for doing this!
For some reason I can’t get it to work. I installed the new action, threw the old one away (just to be sure), closed and re-opened Freeway, but I still only get the ‘Use Page/URL as target’, width and height text boxes. Am I doing something wrong?

Try removing the action from your page, publishing once, and then add the action back.

I tried it, still no luck. Maybe it has something to do with working in Dropbox. I am working on the same Freeway document from two locations (work and home) so that may have something to do with it.
I will try some other options and will come back to you as soon as I have the new version running. Looking forward to using it!
Thanks again,
Marco

It appeared to be a Dropbox problem indeed. The new action is working now, and it is really fantastic. Thanks so much for this!

Likely because FW caches a copy of the action internally. Both copies of FW and their associated action files should be identical too.

Thanks Dave. I will be more careful with Dropbox. Being able to work on one document from different places is great, so I’ll try to find a good way to manage this.

Hi Walter,
I have one more question. I see that the window opens with a loading picture. This pic is visible less than a second and then loads the actual page (I use a page in the window). Is there a way to get rid of the loading picture? The loading picture gives the website visitor the idea of slow loading window content, especially because I use this action about 20 times on one page. (In reality the content - in my case - loads quickly.)
It would be great if there would be an option to see no loading picture at all.

In your page where you have the lightboxes, use the Page / HTML Markup dialog (Before /head section) to add the following style:
<style type="text/css">
#_player { background-image: none !important }
</style>

Hi Walter,
The SLB2 actions works great now.
The SLB2 window behaves a little different on the iPad. The window is closed no matter where you click on the page (also if you touch the screen to zoom in). This is not an issue for me, but it can get confusing for users because the SLB2 window is always opened in the centre of the (original size) page, even after zooming in on the iPad.
So if you zoom in and then click on the SLB2 action, the window may open above or below the visible part of the page.
Would there be a possibility to have the window opened next to the image that you click on to open the window? That would definitely help iPad users.
I also tested on an Android device (with Android 2.3 so I’m not sure if the experience will be the same on newer versions). On the Android tablet the SLB2 window opens in the upper left corner, and also disappears if you click on the screen.

This is a slippery problem all around. The issue is that the overlay image is displayed as a percentage of the overlay DIV. On a desktop, that DIV will always be the size of the browser window. But mobile browsers show you a “keyhole” view of a much larger virtual page at anything other than 100% view, and so the window size is useless for sizing its children. I will need to come up with some responsive CSS tricks to make this possible. As far as the touch to close, that was a concession to the fact that the close box can be ridiculously small on an iPhone screen, impossible to hit. I’m not likely to remove that feature.
