I will have only the Description in the Lightbox.
But I see the description not in the lightbox. I see it every time in the Category.
But this is to small..

This post details adding the description to the Shadowbox, Lightbox, Slimbox, etc. displays.

If the description text is long, you might encounter text truncation issues - I believe the height of the text area is fixed in most of the slideshows. For shadowbox, you can pass something like "initialHeight: 200" in the shadowbox.init() call, and it should create a larger vertical area, I'm not sure if this will correct the text truncation at the top though. Nonetheless, the other post gives you a means to alter the text that is displayed, I will look through the source some more to see about positioning updates.

Hello imperialWicket

Thank you. I test it and is work very good with slimbox.
With Shadowbox I see the text not correct. No problem, I can make it with slimbox 8)

One little problem is, that I see the text in the Category and it is to long.
It is possible to see the text in slimbox only?

If I understand your circumstances correctly, this should be controlled In the Phoca Gallery parameters. Check under the Category View Settings section, and make sure that "Display Image Description in Box" is configured to "No".

Hope that does the trick.
