Webgalerien sind Internetseiten, die es Ihnen ermöglichen, ganze Bildersammlungen für jedermann zugänglich zu machen. StudioLine erzeugt nicht nur solche komplett verlinkten Webgalerien, sondern publiziert diese auch im Internet (einen Internetzugang mit Webspace vorausgesetzt).

Die Struktur einer Webgalerie besteht aus einer Hauptseite, auf der alle in der Galerie enthaltenen Bilder als Vorschaubildchen angeordnet sind (ähnlich der Vorschaubilder, mit denen Sie im Bildarchiv arbeiten). Wird eines der Vorschaubildchen angeklickt, wird automatisch eine Seite mit einer großen Ansicht des Bildes geöffnet. Man kann in dieser großen Ansicht auch mittels Schaltflächen zur Navigation zu den anderen Bildern blättern oder wieder zurück in die Übersicht springen.

In Image Archive select any number of images, then click the “Create Web Gallery” in the File Menu.

Choose one of the styles listed in the left pane and click on it to preview the gallery’s sample index page in the right pane. Further information about the selected style is given in the pane at the bottom of the window.

The hint panel indicates the maximum number of images that can fit on the index page for the selected style. If necessary, StudioLine will create additional index pages and add the necessary navigation links between them. The hint panel also identifies which descriptors will be used to display informational text with each image (see chapter “Working with Images: Adding Descriptions.”) Select your design choice by clicking the “Continue” button.

This window opens up as the second of four steps during the creation of your Web Gallery. In this window you can specify various details of your Web Gallery. Note that each Predefined Web Gallery Style may have different settings. Thus, the style you have chosen may or may not have the exact options indicated below. However, most of them share a majority of basic features which are described below. This window is from the Predefined Style 'Modern/Black with Popup and Text'. It is best to play around with the styles to get a feel for what they can do.

• Page Title/Text:
  This will be the header for your web gallery. It will be displayed at the top of your page of thumbnails. If you would like a subtitle, be sure to click the indicated box. Enter any other text and subtext as allowed by this particular gallery style. The text can be revised in a text editor once gallery has been completed.
• URL of the Index Page:
  This the desired URL for the main page of your gallery. If you choose to publish the gallery on the StudioLine server, the URL will be chosen for you.
• Email address (optional:
  Enter an email address if you would like visitors to have a means of contacting you. It is not a required field for the web gallery.
• Generate Link to Map View if Gallery has Geotags
  If you have locationbased information attached to images, you can create automatic map links by clicking on this option.
• Enable Rollover Effects for Thumbnails
  Click on this box if you want to allow rollover effects for your thumbnails. In this particular Predefined style, a rollover includes a full size image popup.
• Images per Page
  Indicates the maximum number of images allowed per page for that Predefined Gallery style. If you exceed the maximum number of images, StudioLine will create more than one index page.
• Detail Views/Size of Image View Pages
  You have a choice between the size of the enlarged view page, either 640×480 or 1024×768.
• Detail Views/Copyright text
  Here you can input the copyright for the images that will get displayed.

A line at the top of the window shows where your gallery is being saved. You can click on the navigation pane to the left to change the subfolder where it is being placed, or you can create a new subfolder by clicking on the folder icon at the upper right. Type in the name of your new gallery.

After clicking the final “Continue” button, there will be a slight delay while StudioLine generates the web gallery. Your new web gallery is now saved as a page in a site. StudioLine will then switch to Page Editor mode to display the result and, if your “Hints” are turned on, you will be given choices on how to proceed.

You can now work on your gallery pages. Change font, background, margin, etc. by clicking on text or right-clicking on the background and selecting from the context menu. Refer to the QuickStep Bar for additional instructions.
