This is a more elaborate version of the macro. It assumes you have a directory with your images (you can change the default) and a subdirectory below that with the the thumbs called "thumbs". You click a button to show either the large or full version. This may be littering your tiddler space with state tiddlers.
One of the reasons to generate actual thumbs rather than just to scale them is that when you scale an image the browser has to load the entire mega-pixel thing into memory. I'm sure others can tweak or replace this to make something better: \define imageit(image:"image",path:"TW-Images/") <$macrocall $name="imageaid" image="$path$$image$" thumb="$path$thumbs/$image$" state="$:/ImageState/$image$" /> \end \define imageaid(image:"image.jpg" ,thumb:"pathToThumb", state:"ImageRevealState") <$button set="$state$" setTo="hide">Full image</$button> <$button set="$state$" setTo="show">Small Image</$button><p/> <$reveal type="match" state="$state$" text="show"> <img src="$thumb$" /> </$reveal> <$reveal type="match" state="$state$" text="hide"> <img src="$image$" /> </$reveal> \end Example: <<imageit "chimps_77646868_3patrol.jpg" >> On Monday, November 10, 2014 10:57:50 AM UTC-8, steve wrote: > > Hi > > I am using TW5 to write documentation for a application and I would like > to embed screenshots in the text > So far I am able to have a clickable link to the image (see below) > > [ext[App Screenshot|./externalFiles/image.tiff]] > > What I would really like to do is: > * have the image displayed in the tiddler without having to click on a > link (good); > * have a thumbnail of the image displayed; click on thumbnail to see the > full resolution image (better) > * generate the thumbnail "on the fly" without having to a separate > thumbnail image; click on the thumbnail to see the full resolution image > (best) > > Steve Wharton > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
