Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

[tapellus]

Hello,

Firstly I would like to thank those responsible for Image Handler, it has been such a useful contribution for me.

I currently have the pop-up images activated and they look great, however I don't want the text indicating the product's name to appear above the pop-up image. Does anyone know how to get rid of it so that it is just an image that pops up when you hover over the small images?

If anyone could help me on this I would be very grateful as I have looked everywhere for this to no avail!

Many Thanks,

Tapellus

Hi all,

me again. I don't like to flood the forum, but equally when I have an update I like to post it in case any of you are actively looking into potential problems.

I am beginning to wonder if there is a bug in the script.

Let me explain what I have.

I have a product with 3 images, called p.jpg, p_b.jpg and p_c.jpg.

When I look at the images in IH/product info I get this table

Image Default size Medium size Large size

p.jpg small p.jpg small p_a.jpg small p_.jpg
48X80 137X240 334X550
2kB 8.32kB 31.16kB

p_b.jpg small p_b.jpg small p_b.jpg small p_b.jpg
47X80 141X240 325X550
2kB 8.45kB 32.1kB

p_c.jpg small p_b.jpg small p_b.jpg small p_b.jpg
45X80 137X240 315X550
2.01kB 8.22kB 30.82kB

The image sizes seem sensible, but why are they all small?

Should I not see medium images in the medium column and large images in the large column?

Also, why in the row for p.jpg does it display p_b.jpg and p_c.jpg?

I am going to carry on my investigation and assume this is a bug and write a patch.

Is this a bug? Does anyone else have the same problem? I have a downloaded an old version of the file even? The file in question is admin/image_handler.php and the version info is

* @version $Id: image_handler.php,v 1.5 2006/05/01 12:16:43 tim Exp $

Sorry for clogging the thread!

No bug, no patch needed.
This is the way IH works in the admin side.
If the true size of each image was to display in the row, it not would fit on most people monitors. Most people don't like to scroll sideways.
The image being displayed is the sample image to show that the file works, click on that row will now display the medium sized image to the right and then when you click that image the large image will pop up.

Can't get rid of it but you can hide it using the style sheet.
The how to has been posted in this thread.
Hint: search this thread for my name.

I am having a brain block with this. My main image auto sizes just fine - 100x100 - 160x240 - 366x550
so hover works great

However my additional image sizes are too small

Help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks

That is the size of the additional images you uploaded.

IH doesn't really like to up size images. This small of images will look really bad if they was up sized.

That is the size of the additional images you uploaded.

Yes, of course.
I put them thru an "optimizer". It optimized the h**l out of them.
Thank you Tophand

How can I increase the size of the hover image to 250px while keeping product info images at 80? Ive spend much time researching and cannot find the answer. I can see the larger image when I click on "larger image" but I want the larger image to appear in the hover too.

Thank you

Hi TopHand,

thanks for the explanation - it makes sense.

Do you know why the PNG file in the Preview tab does not display. The source file is there.

Rewrite the code.
Maybe start with the jscript.
Search this thread.

Not really.
Had have trouble with 16bit/32bit png files.

Hi TopHand,
Thanks for your friendly and thorough response. I had searched the forums for several hours so I took your advice and rewrote the code.
