plone.app.imaging

If present, those will overrule the width and height settings.

available properties:

• images_galleryleft_scale
• images_galleryright_scale
• images_gallerycolumns_scale
• imagse_popup_scale

plone.app.imagecropping

If you use scales for the image dimensions and plone.app.imagecropping is installed you'll see a cropping icon in the management links for the gallery items (when you are in component editing mode)

This icon will open an overlay to define the cropping region for the used scale and update the image when the dialog is closed

Installation

Note if you install raptus.article.default you can skip this installation steps.

To install raptus.article.gallery into your Plone instance, locate the file buildout.cfg in the root of your Plone instance directory on the file system, and open it in a text editor.

Add the actual raptus.article.gallery add-on to the "eggs" section of buildout.cfg. Look for the section that looks like this:

eggs =
    Plone

This section might have additional lines if you have other add-ons already installed. Just add the raptus.article.gallery on a separate line, like this:

eggs =
    Plone
    raptus.article.gallery

Note that you have to run buildout like this:

$ bin/buildout

Then go to the "Add-ons" control panel in Plone as an administrator, and install or reinstall the "raptus.article.default" product.

Note that if you do not use the raptus.article.default package you have to include the zcml of raptus.article.gallery either by adding it to the zcml list in your buildout or by including it in another package's configure.zcml.

Usage

Components

Navigate to the "Components" tab of your article and select one of the gallery components and press "save and view". Note that at least one image has to be contained in the article in which this component is active.
