    xdp6 Horiz image scroller

    Greetings.

    I current have a simple picture gallery page (see attachment) created in XDP6. It has 11 thumbnails that when clicked, show a larger popup view of the image appears on the main stage.

    I'd like to expand the quantity of thumbnails but instead of adding another horizontal thumbnail row below, I'd like to create a scroll bar of sorts that would accommodate many more images horizontally without exceeding the width of the stage (give or take 1000px).

    I'd like a smooth, sliding type of effect. A plain ol' click & drag scroll bar would suffice but the smooth "click & glide" effect is much cooler looking.

    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the chance to post.

    Your photos are incredibly out of focus.

    I think you can do this with http://www.flash-slideshow-maker.com/ Flash Slide Show Maker.

    Thanks for the reply. I'll look in to Flash Slide Show Maker.

    The images were intentionally blurred for this posting. They're federal co-workers and I did not want to post any familiar faces. What you saw was a test for a test picture gallery for our facility.

    You could also have a look at the new version of 'Simpleviewer' - it's free and embeddable.

    There's a demo here

    There is a demo on the Simple Viewer site too John.

    That looks like a really good solution. Hope Rafsgrafx check back in.

    I know ... but a couple more clicks away - getting lazy in my dotage

    Besides, the SV site doesn't demo how to add SV to a Xara made site does it?! I think it should be made clear for casual browsers of this thread ... the demo link is pertinent to Xara :-D
