Suggestions for lightbox slideshow

cyrilp

When playing slideshow in lightbox, the top bar should be hidden.

The red progress line is fun but a little distracting i think. I would like an option to hide it.

I would like to be able to choose time interval.

Random option would be nice too.

i have done it myself with some change in the lightbox plugin script:

progressBar : false,
hideBarsDelay : 1500,
preload : 3,
pause : 7500,

It will be great when you will be able to make those availabe in settings.

God damn, I had replied to this yesterday but it didn't post. Here is my reply:

It hides after N seconds, like we talked about in different topic. If it was hidden permanently you wouldn't be able to stop auto-play.

Use custom CSS for now:

.lg-progress-bar,
.lg-progress-bar .lg-progress {
    background-color: transparent;
}

But I will also add option to disable it.

Sure will add such option:-)

This plugin doesn't have such option. I will add this to wishlist, and try to emulate this somehow in future.

With kind regards.

All settings beside "preload" are already done and will be in next update. By default "preload" is set to 1 so it loads previous and next image. Any reason to set it to 3? For ultra fast viewing?

With kind regards.

yes i'm trying to use preload 3 to make it smoother as my image are high res

It can however choke mobile connection. I will consider adding this setting.

With kind regards.

Preload option is added in upcoming update.
