Hi Kyle,

I have found something in Gallery that does not work correctly. When you upload a picture in the side-ways format (vertical instead of horizontal) then the display in Activity does not work as it should. See picture and focus on the picture that I uploaded in Gallery. Totally left.

What's the issue? Looks as it should. Your thumbnail size is probably too small to fill the box. If it is then it fills it with gray as the box size in activity is static to allow for that multi-image display. You can adjust the size of the thumbnail within CB Gallery parameters, but it will not affect already uploaded images.

I have changed now the thumbnail size to 1024*1024 and uploaded pictures:


Now I have tested with pictures that are 3 MB big (so have more than enough resolution)


So the problem is NOT the thumbnail...

My guess is you didn't change the correct parameter. Changing the parameter also has no affect on existing images and you must re-upload. They also do not need to be so large as that usage is only 400x400. This is all working fine locally and on our demo site (see top activity entry; the height is only 320px).

Edit: Ok, I see your issue and it's likely due to wrong parameter being changed. The default height for photo thumbnails is 320px. This is configured within CB Gallery > Parameters > Photos. This is not configured in CB Gallery > Parameters > Thumbnails as that's for Videos, Files, and Music thumbnails.

Ah yeah, I have just seen the EDIT you have made. Yes, my parameters are set for 150 px as I need that properly filling out the space on a) the website over desktop and b) over the app. If I leave it to 320 px, it looks less than beautiful on phone (it re-arranges to be a single line downwards) and if I do it less than 320 px it looks on not good activity...

Considering that you need to consider (awesome english here...) that people also use the stuff on mobile phones, different plugins, different set-ups, it would be great to have different settings that do not intermix (one for activity thumbnails and one for gallery thumbnails)... It is a modular build-up so each module plugin should, if possible, have its own settings... that would avoid the above situation (perfect size and shape etc... for gallery, break-down on activity....)

Bye
Tim

There is no way different resizing values are going to be added for different devices, sorry. That'd more than double the storage requirements per image. CB Gallery activity output just needs to be more responsive. The 400px box size should drop to 200px on mobile. Have added a feature ticket to add responsiveness to the activity output from CB Gallery.
