Hello,

Once I change the Image - Product Listing Width or Height my IH4 does not function anymore.
What am I doing wrong?

Dunno.. Dunno know what you mean by "IH4 does not function anymore". Provide details (see page one of this support thread for tips on the kind of details you should be providing). Before you post, you should review the troubleshooting tips in the IH4 readme and see if the answer to your problem is there.

Thank you for the reply. I did not find related answer in the readme.
At mouse hoover I see the enlarged image coming up for every image I have in my list, but I wanted to change the defult image size from 100x80 to 150x120 in the - Configuration > Images - section so it shows a little bigger when the visitor watches it without moving the mouse on it.
Once I try to change the dimension to even just one pixel and hoover over it, the enlarged image does not show up, IH4 no longer has function even if I hoover on an image that I left as defult 100x80.

Please review the section in the readme that covers how the image hover feature works and specifically pay particular attention to how the image settings need to be configured for it to work..

Thank you. It worked. The solution was to read it over and over again. I am new to this. The only thing I missed was the "small image width" and "small image height" did not match with the desired product listing image dimensions.
Thanks again,
Peter

Help required please.

I am into Day 3 of trying to configure IH4. I've refrained from posting questions, but now could do with some help.

I have resorted to a completely fresh install of ZC 1.5.1, including example categories and products.

I have not created a custom template. Everything is out of the box.

My GD Version (described in php info) is: "bundled (2.0.34 compatible)"

I have read through the installation instructions and installed as described (Route 1, following "New Installation Instructions").

Messages at top of Admin indicated successful install. I also deleted the file indicated in the last line of the messages.

Both IH4 Admin pages look as they should:
Admin > Catalog > Categories/Products
Admin > Tools > Image Handler4

I changed IH resize images to "yes".

From the Configuration tab, I followed the instructions in the "Zooming (fancy hover effect)" section, removing all heights for the image settings, as you have, and replacing the width = 100 settings with width = 50 (so I could see a difference in image size for the hover behaviour).

Other changes:
Product Info - Image Width = 97 (so I can check that the change is effected in the browser)

My problemn is that I don't see any larger images (or indeed anything happening at all) when I hover over small images in pages such as "All Products" or "New Products".

If I click one of these small images, I get the product info page, with the 97px wide image, as expected. Click on that and I get a rather ugly default ZC popup window with a 200px wide image (where does this dimension come from?).

Can anyone suggest what I need to do to enable my images-on-hover?

Thanks.

Any suggestions?
