Hi,
I finally managed to get the Vegas Inline Theatre slideshow working on my website www.daryllynchphotgraphy.com.
However, I was trying some design options, and using coloured borders and page backgrounds to see what different things do. Now I can't remove the red border around the slideshow images.
In the theatre template the borders are set to white, as is page background. I know I have sorted out most of the issues I had, but this one has me baffled. Any ideas?
Also, I'd like to make the slideshow images smaller than 640 by 960, but can't find where to do that.
And I have to sort out the copyright issue of dates as well.
Then the base website is just about complete. Just have to add a couple of static images on the about and contact pages.
After that I have to sort out CRG pages before my next shoot.
I think Backlight is a lot simpler than CE4, but it still has a few trial and error frustrations. Hope someone can help again.
Thanks,
Daryl

Did you add any custom CSS to control the border? (links to problem pages always help)
Change image size in the Images Settings section of the album template. If you have existing albums using the template you'll need to republish the images.

Hi Rod,
Thanks for your help yet again.
1. I didn't add any custom CSS. I'm not at that level of progression.
2. I created a separate template solely for the slideshow. I did change the template image size.
Details from the template:
Template Name - DLP Home Page Slideshow
Page Template - DLP Master Page
Thumbnail
Width 210
Height 140
Quality 69
Photos
Width 960
Height 640
Quality 69
Colour Space Adobe RGB
Album Setup
Location - Below Copy
Max Width - 1000 px
Margin Top - 5 px
Margin Bottom - 15 px
Padding - Left/Right - 0 px
Background Colour - White 255,255,255 (I originally had this as yellow to see what it did, but changed it to white on template, saved it, refreshed template cache, and it changed to white on the webpage when published)
Border Colour - White 255,255,255 (I originally had this as red to see what it did, but changed it to white on template, saved it, refreshed template cache, but it stayed as red on the webpage when published)
Border - 0 px (I originally had this as 2 px, then 1px then changed to 0px to see if I could remove the red)
Shadows - Off
Presentation Type - Vegas Slideshow
Presentation Style - Inline
Aspect Ration Width - 3
Aspect Ration Height - 2
Display Slideshow Controls - Off (I could see the change when I left this on and moved it from centre to right, and then when I turned it off it went)
Image Scaling - Cover

I don't see a red border on your home page. At least not on my iPad. Have you tried clearing browser cache and template cache?

Further, I see no red border on your home page slide show on the desktop. Do you have another slideshow that has the border?

Thanks Rod,
Browser cache was the problem. Just another thing, and such a simple one, to think of when it doesn't seem to work. Appreciate your assistance.
Now off to sort out a few other little issues with the site before it is finished.
Cheers,
Daryl
