Topic: Background Image

Can you confirm that the free version of Simple Viewer restricts developers to a grey background? I'd like to add a background image - do I have to go Pro?

Thanks

Re: Background Image

The Background Image Options are SimpleViewer-Pro-only options.
However, you can set the background color of a Simpleviewer-Standard gallery to something other than grey by changing the backgroundColor Embed Code Parameter in your gallery's embedding code, e.g.:

simpleviewer.load("sv-container", "100%", "100%", "aaccee", true, flashvars, params, attributes);

You can also set your SimpleViewer-Standard gallery's background to be transparent (by setting the backgroundColor 'Embed Code Parameter' to 'transparent' and then set a background image via HTML and CSS, e.g.:

<!--START SIMPLEVIEWER EMBED.-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="svcore/js/simpleviewer.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
simpleviewer.ready(function () {
simpleviewer.load("sv-container", "100%", "100%", "transparent", true);
});
</script>
<div id="sv-container" style="background-image: url('images/background.jpg');"></div>
<!-- END SIMPLEVIEWER EMBED -->
