Hi all.
I have seen, on the web, a type of picture gallery I would like to put on an
input form in our 4D v15.2 Win app (in a web area).
I have been Googling for pic gallery libraries and am overwhelmed trying to
make sense of the results, most of which seem to require php code manipulation.
I have medium knowledge of html, beginner at js, and zero knowledge of php.
Has anyone deployed a gallery similar to our ideal gallery (described below)?
If so, can you share how you did it?
The ideal is:
- available pictures will be in a preset folder
- upper central "larger" image shows first pic on open web area
- on either side will be arrows (previous/next)
- click on the larger pic and it expands to cover the entire web area until
a click anywhere to revert back to what was
- below will be a narrow horizontal bar with thumbnails of available images,
able to be scrolled sideways
- on the bar, the "current" pic will be highlighted in some way
- as the cursor is hovered over a thumbnail, the pic will show as the
larger pic above, but that won't stay "big" until the thumbnail is clicked.
- a click on a thumbnail moves it to the centre pic in the bar
- a black background all round might look nice
Not asking for much am I... :-)
If there is no info forthcoming, I guess I can always do it using native 4D -
might not look as good.
I haven't tried it but, if I use 4D, perhaps I could use a 1 row array listbox
as the thumbnail bar (each column would contain a picture array with 1
element)...
TIA, Keith
