Lightbox Gallery with Close Button

Hi,

I'm trying to implement one of the many animated lightbox galleries we have in WB15 (like Sequence or Nivo-Slider).
My problem is focused on having the (desired!) "image zoom" whenever the user click over the image, but with a "natural" way to close the zoomed image!

- When we have animation, the image is not zoomed or, if so, neither has a "close" button nor respond to ESC key.
- When we have navigation-buttons and CLOSE button on zoomed images, we have no animation at all - the first image is static.

Do you know a way to join animation, zoom and a natural (or visual) way to close the zoomed image?

I appreciate in advance.

Every lightbox has different settings. You can check the website of the creator of the lightbox for the available options.

Hi!

Now I'm using the control SLIDE-SHOW - SEQUENCE, which does not provide any "click-and-zoom" on the image.

And choosing LIGHTBOX GALLERY, I've the ZOOM and navigation controls (CLOSE/ESC too) but without "slide" effects.

Thanks for any help.

It's either one of the other. There cannot be two scripts active on the same images.

Slideshow -> Sequence uses the built-in slideshow script
Slideshow -> Lightbox replaces the built-in script and uses one of the third party lightbox scripts.

I got it.

And as I saw, no one third-party script has both functions together; I mean, be capable to "slideshow" the images and also, display a clicked-one even with an ESC event activated.

It's really sad.

Thank you all.

Are you looking for the standard slideshow where you click on an image and a lightbox appears with the first image, arrows for previous and next plus a close button ie lightbox gallery > slideshow > fancybox (might have that around the wrong way) Anyway that works, just have to set up options in "settings" to get the effects you want.

Thank you Roger.

Sorry for delay in answering you - I was in travel by work.

I'll try some parameters as shown in the Fancybox documentation.

Thanks again!
