[Pro] Slideshow Question

Hi there, I’m a long-time reader of the forum and first-time poster.

I’m building a slideshow with version 5.3 Pro of Freeway using the Carousel along with the Show/Hide Layer action and Scripty Lightbox 1.

Everything works fine except I’d like the Lightbox window to have some Prev/Next navigation.

From reading various posts on this I see that this functionality is not included in the Scripty Lightbox, and Weaver’s Lightbox has issues with some of the actions I’m using.

Is there a solution to this that I can implement in Freeway? Or maybe someone has seen some JQuery or other lightbox solution I can try.

This link shows what I’m trying to achieve

Thanks in advance

The Showcase app that is included with later versions of FW will do this for you. You are a bit behind!

Thanks David. Working on contract for a client using their system, will suggest the upgrade.

I checked out showcase. But will it allow a slider for thumbnails, a medium sized preview followed by a fullsize beauty shot which has previous and next navigation? From the online demo it appears to be a standard gallery setup, thumbnail then main pic. There doesn’t appear to be a medium transition. How customisable is the app in terms of functionality? Obviously CSS styles will be fairly flexible.

Shadowbox JS does this. Allows next and previous on the lightbox that shows the image. I don’t think it can be done with scriptylighbox, at least I couldn’t do it.

Hi Ra,

Thanks for the reply. I will check out Shadowbox JS.

I got around the problem by not mentioning it to the client… :slight_smile:
