Topic: caption position between main image and thumbs

Hi there one more question:

i want more space between the main picture and the thumbs.
becouse the caption is in between... and it needs more space.
now the caption is overlapping the main image.
I dont want to chose for a fixed layout.

Re: caption position between main image and thumbs

You could try setting floatCaption="FALSE" which means that the caption height will then be counted in the stage layout.

Alternatively, you could try increasing the stageVPadding.

Re: caption position between main image and thumbs

Hi Steven,

Both solution do not work.

Alternatively, you could try increasing the stageVPadding.
-the space between the main image and thumbs is increasing -thats nice but the position of the text keeps overfloading the image.

caption position is at mine at:    caption position: overlay_bottom

Float caption isn't doing any difference

Re: caption position between main image and thumbs

As far as I am aware, it is not possible to do what you wish (position the captions between the main image and the thumbnails) without using a Fixed Layout (which I know you do not want to do).
Originally, I didn't realise your captions were in an overlay (I should have examined your screenshot more carefully) and I wasn't sure how you had achieved the caption positioning but thought my initial suggestions might have helped.

Re: caption position between main image and thumbs

ok why i dont want to use fixed positions is becouse the main picture isnt centred. if that is able to be done then i can use that option.
can u tell me if that could be done?
thnx

Re: caption position between main image and thumbs

A fixed layout will give absolute fixed positions to stage elements and dynamic resizing will not occur.

When using a Fixed Layout, you can choose a fixed height for the main image via imageAreaHeight but you cannot center an element.
Each element must be positioned absolutely using x and y coordinates from the top left corner of the browser window.

Re: caption position between main image and thumbs

I had the same problem.  I used a configuration option from Version 1 that seemed to work.

stageVPadding to put space between the items...
then change the padding to a negative value for the title and caption to reposition them appropriately.
