Panoramas Not Showing Properly

http://www.bc-fineartphotography.com/ga … panoramas/

I have created an album of panoramas, loosely 1008x398. Galleria will not allow me to make the height less than 640. How can I get around this. I have hidden the gallery from view, so hopefully, the above link will work.

Thanks for any help that you can give on this.

I teach the techniques that go into panos, so this is frustrating for me.

Take care,

Re: Panoramas Not Showing Properly

I’m not at my pc so I can’t test this.
Try setting the large image width to the width needed.

Try setting the aspect ratio to that of the panoramas (2:1, 3:1, etc)

Also, there’s an “Image crop” setting (in Photo Presentation). Try playing with that.

Re: Panoramas Not Showing Properly

I think I missed the aspect ratio whose location  I can never remember.  I'll go on a hunt!  We are in the middle of teaching a Lightroom workshop in Charleston, and I have mentioned The Turning Gate as a fabulous resource along with Jeffrey Friedl.  I'll do so again tomorrow and show those who do their own websites what one can do.  Hopefully, I can share the panos, too.

As alwaYS, THANKS,

Re: Panoramas Not Showing Properly

I found it, Rod. Thank you. My panos are different aspect ratios, as I create them according to the scene I am interpreting. Different aspect ratios do not seem to work in Galleria without adding a "cheat" background border, so I'll just compromise and for the purposes here, crop my panoramas to a 7:2 ratio, and the ones that don't like it, won't make the gallery cut!  wink

So, I redid, and that gallery is now live.  AND, I can demonstrate in our last session this morning what The Turning Gate can do as a plugin to Lightroom for those who have their own websites or who are contemplating ones in the future.

Again, thanks, and ...

Take care,

Re: Panoramas Not Showing Properly

you don't need to use panos that exactly match your aspect ratio.
This show uses all panos. The aspect ratio of the slide show is 16:9. The aspect ratio of the panos all differ.

Make sure "Image Crop" is off or Galleria will crop the images to the aspect ratio and fill the available space.

Re: Panoramas Not Showing Properly

Excellent, Rod. Ultimately, I settled on 16:7, and it works perfectly. Thank you ever so much.

For others who are interested in this topic, here is another pano gallery done with Galleria:
