I’ve just upgraded to FW 5.5 and love the new Showcase gallery action. I have been having one small issue with it, though. I can’t get my thumbnail to occupy the full html item it occupies. I’ve looked through all the settings (padding, borders, etc.), but can’t seem to get, for example, a 225 x 225 px thumb to occupy an html box of the same size. The thumb disappears long before I can get it even close.
My solution is to make an oversize html item to hold the thumbnail at the size I want. Being a bit anal, though, it would make my universe all the more harmonious if I could get the thumbnail to occupy the whole box. Is there something I need to know?

The application allows for coloured backgrounds and borders, coloured cells, and rollover for cells and borders. Plus the possibility of choosing the background colour on the large image, the page dim colour and transparency. And captions. Having said that I switched off all colours and borders and zeroed all padding, spacing, and border widths on my test andI get what you want. (But just having no colours seems to work just fine even if the big bounding box bugs)
But if you are not going to employ these effects and only want one thumb + one large image try Scriptylight box. It is dead simple and is all done in Freeway.
Best wishes

Zounds, SLB is easy. I doubt it has the edge over SC when it comes to multi-image galleries, but for a single pop-up, I don’t think it can be beat. Thanks, Richard!

Complete newbie here… I created 2 Showcase Galleries in a site I’m working on and used the action to insert them into my webpage. The first one was beautiful, all as expected, thumbnails all working great. The second one, the thumbnails in Freeway are showing as a “?” in a blue box, but they preview just fine. 1st question, why are they different, what would cause the ? on thumbnails in Page View?
I also saved the THEME in the Showcase Action palette from the first one page, but when I go to, Select Theme, and try to load the one I created on the 2nd one, the file name is grayed out and not selectable. Thanks for help…
