The 'Download Image' and 'Open Image in New Window' buttons are disabled in FullScreen mode by design.

The 'Download Image' button will download the image displayed by SimpleViewer (as specified by the imageURL in the xml file).

If you want to upload the full size images and have them available for download, you could use showOpenButton="true" (as found here: http://simpleviewer.net/simpleviewer/pr … #buttonbar) and then use linkURL to specify the path to the image (which would be opened in a new tab/window when the user clicks on the 'Open Image in New Window' button; the next best thing to a direct download), eg:

<image imageURL="images/image1.jpg" thumbURL="thumbs/thumb1.jpg" linkURL="full_size/full_size1.jpg" linkTarget="_blank"></image>

... or link a caption directly to an image, eg:

<image imageURL="images/image1.jpg" thumbURL="thumbs/thumb1.jpg" linkURL="" linkTarget=""></image>
<caption><a href="full_size/full_size1.jpg">Click here</a></caption>
</image>

If it is not possible to enable download while in full screen (is that a limitation of Flash?), I would like to propose an alternative.

But first, why this matters to me (and perhaps others).  I just purchased SV Pro and am trying to get my new site going.  I plan to have a small note on the page to encourage viewers to use full screen mode for the best possible experience.  My clients and their friends & family will know they can download the images, as that is part of the deal and will be explained at each event.  If I tell them to use full screen, but then they can't download images, it is going to cause much confusion with my clients and no doubt a few "what the heck!?" emails to me.  This will require me to add more explanatory text on the page which will only further clutter SV's clean look and sound broken and mickey-moused.

Can you modify the code of SV Pro to force-quit full screen mode when the download button is clicked, then execute your pre-existing code for that button?  It is a shame that downloads will not work in full screen, but at least this solution will allow the button to work with the only side-effect being that it dumps you out of full screen (much less confusing than a non-functional button, I should think).  If everyone is not keen on this solution, it could be added as an option in the xml instead of a full-time feature.
