Behavior

Go full screen

When the visitor enters Lightbox, the browser goes full screen. Going back to index will stop full screen mode.

Auto start videos

The skin tries to start videos automatically. This setting is not effective on mobiles, which disable auto start by design. Some desktop browsers also allow users to disable auto starting. Some come with this settings on by default.

Use 360° player

The skin can display 360° panoramas made with an appropriate device. The source file is either 4096x2048 px or 8192x4096 px. On devices with gyro sensor the panorama can be controlled by turning the device.

Use sound clips

You can attach short sound clips to the individual images which then will be played along the image in the lightbox. For this you need to place the sound clip (MP3 format) in the same folder as the source image, holding the same base name as the image, e.g. "mydog.jp" -> "mydog.mp3".

Images

Scaling

Default view mode:

Original (1:1) size - leaves the scaled down image size, might be too big on mobiles
Fit vertically - fits the height only, can stretch over horizontally, a.k.a panorama mode
Fit both - fits the image into the browser window

Padding

The amount of gutter between the image and the browser's edge.

Never scale up

Fits the image only if larger, but never scales up in order to avoid pixelation.

Don't allow panels to cover the images in Fit mode

Only the space between the top and bottom panels will be used to fit the image.
