Mosaic view settings

Post by mailzaforume77 »

Hi all,

i set up PG after all, and want to have mosaic view on categories view.

After recreating thumbnails I got mosaic view, but can't get mosaic view in 2 or 3 columns, it's all in one column, so didn't look good.

I tried with beez 3 template, it's the same, just one column.

Also, I noticed that gallery in mosaic view isn't responsive for mobile view.

Any help please?

Take the small thumbnails for mosaic view.
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Control Panel --> Options --> Categories View --> Categories View Settings --> Image Size=Small
Save & Close

Kind regards,
Benno

First of all, thanks for the reply Benno. Now I got really smaller images on categories view, pretty smaller to be exact :)

But my question was, can we set number of columns in categories view, when mosaic effect is turned on?

Hi,
Phoca Gallery works with float boxes. This means that the number of categories next to each other is determined by the size of your screen. On a small screen like my laptop, maybe only three columns will be displayed, maybe eight for a large one.
If you want to set a fixed number of columns, you can try it with the Categories View - Legacy Settings in the Phoca Gallery Options, but then the categories view is no longer responsive. :idea:

If the small thumbnails are too small, you can increase the dimensions in the Phoca Gallery Options and then have to recreate the thumbnails with the new dimensions.

Kind regards,
Benno
