Created by PIXELONETRY LLC, Modified on Thu, 12 Dec, 2024 at 6:18 PM by PIXELONETRY LLC

This view is used to create a slider. The slider has a single side to side swipe transition. Images in this slider area arranged on a sort of a carousel wheel arrangement and once the final image has been reaches, the images scroll quickly back to the first image. The parameters available for this view are as follows:

Input data = Gallery

Use Gallery	Select the gallery (created previously) from which you would like to use to define the slider's content.
Link	Custom - This means that the link on the image will be that link set in the "Gallery Image Settings", accessible via the edit gallery page. (edit image icon on each gallery thumbnail). Attachment - This will overwrite any link set via the "Gallery Image Settings" page and instead the image will automatically receive a link to the original version of itself, prior to resizing. This way you may display large versions of images in a lightbox.
