Thumbnail Zoom-In/Out Help

Hi,

Is there an Action in Freeway 5 Pro or example that I could possibly look at, that will allow me to display to the user a selection of thumbnails, which will be actual screens-shots of an application and when the user clicks on a thumbnail, that thumbnail is expanded/zoomed in. When it is clicked on again, it then zooms back to it’s thumbnail size.

Any assistance/examples would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

T.

Rather than zooming in to the image - why not use the Target show/hide images or layers actions.

Clicking or rolling over a thumbnail can show a larger image elsewhere on the page.

Sounds light a good candidate for using Lightbox or a derivative of it. Weaver’s MooTools Suite has a version, he also has a stand alone version of Slimbox that can be used with Scriptaculous.

Thanks Guys.

Just wondering David, if you could please provide location of this Action and if possible, are there any examples/tutorials, that use this Action?

Thanks.

What version of FW are you using T - it is 5 Pro isnt it.

This action is part of the Standard actions included with Pro

To use:

Draw a graphic box on the page where you want your image to appear.

Size it and import your image.

Apply the Target Show/Hide Image action to it. Set the action inspector settings to Initially: Hidden you can leave the rest at their default settings. of Target Group: Indigo and Target #: 1

Select the text or graphic that you wish to trigger the image and apply a Rollover to it. In the inspector set these settings to Mouseover:Items, Target Group: Indigo and Mouseover#: 1

Restore settings you can play with until you get the effect you want.

Have a look at Carla’s page for an example
