Image not centered when using kenBurnsStartRectangle

michl4ever — Fri, 11 May 2012 20:51:37 +0200

Hi,

One question according to the kenBurnsStartRectangle.
My picture is portrait style 533x800px. And I want to make a manuel zoom with the Ken Burns Start and EndRectangle. My problem is, that the picture is not centered. Instead it is located on the left side of the viewport.

Here is the image configuration:

Here ist the flash configuration of the viewport:

First I thought, I have to set the startRectangle to: ="100,0,800,533" but instead of moving the image to the right it move to the left outside of the viewport. Does anybody know, what I might do wrong?

kind regards
Michael

Ken Burns with Portrait and Landscape Pictures

michl4ever — Fri, 11 May 2012 18:32:43 +0200

Hello all,

I'm new to the product and I'm really impressed on what you can do with just a few clicks. It's really amazing.
But I ran into one single problem.

Whats the best way, to show portait and landscape pictures with the Ken Burns effect "randomZoom" when I want to see the pictures at least once full.

I've looked in the forum and found some other discussions about that, which most of the referred to another forumpost which is now not available anymore :-/

Do I have to format my portrait images so they become landscape images or can this be achieved modifying the xml?

kind regards
Michael

Remove Reflection Sparkles Preset

lyndsaymoon — Sat, 05 May 2012 23:44:43 +0200

Hi,

I have used the Sparkles preset so I can have a slideshow with thumbnails along the bottom to navigate through, and switched off "Autoplay". I want to know how can I get rid of the reflection at the bottom of the main image, that goes behind the thumbnails.

I have been customising the preset, but cannot find a way to make the navigation bar shallower and without the reflection.

Thank for your help.

How to embed monoslideshow into my website (HTML page)

andy1357 — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 12:31:43 +0200

Hi forum,

I've figured out how to make the slideshow work offline and am now trying to make it work online, embedded in an HTML page.

Using the advice from the monoslideshow instruction PDF, I have embedded the following code in my website's index page:

Please install Flash®

So far, the slideshow isn't appearing online. I'm wondering whether I need to tell it where the XML file is? ( the xml file is located here: /slideshow/monoslideshow.xml )

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers,
Andy

Attempting to change configuration of xml file

andy1357 — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 02:27:30 +0200

Hi forum,

I would like to change the configuration of the monoslideshow.xml file, although it seems that every attempt I make doesn't work.

Ii'm using the basic starter file provided by monoslideshow:

title 1
title 2
title 3

As a test, I have tried swapping the Ken Burns transition configuration for the shatter transition, as shown in the PDF manual. Here is what I have done:

thumbnail="album/albumThumbnail.jpg" itemPath="album/images"

thumbnailPath="album/thumbnails">

title 1
title 2
title 3

I get the message: "delay" is not a valid attribute for transition.

If anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong, it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Andy

Beginner Help

Hi, I've just bought Monoslideshow and am trying to figure out a few things..

So far I have made the obvious work, modifying the xml file with the first piece of code that the manual suggests:

I have run the index file offline, using the example directory setup that monoslideshow provided. This works fine. Now I would like to configure the slideshow. I have run the demo on the monoslide website and generated an xml file. Then I have attempted to put in the directory information for the photo locations, as follows:

<br /> <description/><br /> <shadow/><br /> <transition/><br /> </caption><br /> <navigation position="bottomRight" </p> <p>strokeType="square" ><br /> <albums><br /> <caption><br /> <title/><br /> <description/><br /> </caption><br /> <shadow/><br /> <transition><br /> <shadow/><br /> </transition><br /> </albums><br /> <items><br /> <shadow/><br /> <transition><br /> <shadow/><br /> </transition><br /> </items><br /> <shadow/><br /> <caption><br /> <title/><br /> <description/><br /> </caption><br /> <pageIndicator/><br /> </navigation><br /> <reflection/><br /> <controller><br /> <transition/><br /> <scrubBar/><br /> <shadow/><br /> </controller><br /> <mark><br /> <shadow/><br /> </mark><br /> <progress><br /> <shadow/><br /> </progress><br /> <transition time="1" /><br /> <shadow/><br /> <sound/><br /> <thumbnailNavigation position="bottomRight" </p> <p>><br /> <items><br /> <shadow/><br /> <transition><br /> <shadow/><br /> </transition><br /> </items><br /> <shadow/><br /> </thumbnailNavigation><br /> </configuration><br /> <contents><br /> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><br /> <album thumbnail="thumb1.jpg" itemPath="images"><br /> <contents><br /> <image source="photo1.jpg" thumbnail="thumb1.jpg" /><br /> <image source="photo2.jpg" thumbnail="thumb2.jpg" /><br /> <image source="photo3.jpg" thumbnail="thumb3.jpg" /><br /> </contents><br /> </album></p> <p>I'm sure I'm missing something basic, as all I get now is a black box with nothing in it..</p> <p>If anyone can advise, I would be grateful.</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Andy</p> </article> <article> <h1>Hanging in Chrome & IE</h1> <p>kule — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 14:41:50 +0100</p> <p>I've started having problems with monoslideshow hanging in IE & Chrome.

Bigger numbers make your slideshow appear slower, This appears in <configuration> element, just below <album>, and it should be a universal delay for all images in the slideshow.
