Efront - Module Thumbnail

Module Thumbnails - version 1.0 This module is used by professors to create and display a list of pictures to the attendees of a lesson. The Thumbnails module utilizes the Highslide JS library for advanced thumbnail viewing and refers to professors and students: Professor Professors can upload, edit and delete pictures from the gallery of the thumbnails module for each lesson where the module is activated (from the lesson administration page). The current gallery of each lesson can be displayed by clicking on the corresponding link on that lesson’s main page or from the sidebar link under that lesson menu. New images can be uploaded from that page by clicking on the “Add thumbnail link” link. The image file to be uploaded together with a name that will be used as the caption of that image will be defined in the appearing form. Keep in mind that the file is uploaded inside the directory called “module_thumbnail” at the directory for the uploaded files of each lesson. An image can have its details edited or be entirely deleted from the list (and the eFront file system) from the gallery images list of each lesson.

An image as viewed in full scale Student Students may view the gallery defined for a lesson that has the thumbnail module enabled by selecting the lesson and finding the corresponding inner table at the lesson’s main page (dashboard). The list of pictures that is going to appear has small

thumbnail previews of each image. However, by clicking on each of them the student is able to view that image at full size, together with the caption that has been defined for it by the lesson’s professor. This caption will also appear by hovering (leaving the mouse pointer idle) over each image.
