What’s next?

Some of you were perhaps hoping for a dedicated horizontal menu and Fotomoto e-commerce integration in this release, but we had to push this forwards to Imagevue X2.7. We are already bracing ourselves for X2.7, and also looking to the future in regards to dedicated Imagevue mobile/iPhone version, Guestbook and a few new cool themes!

    Wouah! Seems to be fantastic, i think i won’t be able to wait v2.7 for upgrading, will upgrade this week. Thank you and congratulations!

  2. The update is really great, I have a question i’m using a video converter to converter an mp4 file to swf, I then create my own theme upload the swf background and enable it but it loads in the top right corner and frames a bit till the length of the video in the swf plays then it resizes to the browser window size and the gallery menu and buttons start.

    Can this be fixed? I searched the forums and even registered no real instructions about making video backgrounds full screen on load. I assume this is some cache issue cause when I revisit or refresh the gallery it loads up all at once.

    • I am not sure what you mean “frames a bit till the length of the video in the swf plays then it resizes to the browser window size and the gallery menu and buttons start”

      I would need to see a link first of all. Second, I am not sure what settings you are suing or how this SWF is created. Imagevue uses the loaded clips boundaries to scale the background (if it is set to scale). IF the boundaries are unset in some frames, or if there are invisible elements in the SWF, then this will not always be successful.

      Please post in the forum (if you are a licensed user), or send us an e-mail instead of posting in this unrelated blog post.

  3. can´t wait for guestbook.thx for this version.

  4. Mjau-mjau, Congratulations ! And thank you for the awful new release. Is there any new theme in this new version?

  5. any tentative date for x2.7?

  6. Can’t wait the horizontal menu feature :) also new themes are welcomed. I wish to can change the font for the menu text, and the text color from the menu. Also some of my visitors told me that the tree style for the vertical menu sucks.. so any new menu style included in imagevuex 2.7 whould make me wanna upgrade ASAP :)

    • You can already change the font-style in the main menu, from your theme CSS stylesheet:
      /documentation/cssreference/

      In regards to that the tree style “sucks”, this doesn’t sound like a well-considered perspective. Its been like this for several years, and it’s been quite popular. Besides, you can customize it a lot. What would they suggest alternatively?

  7. Any word on imagevuex 2.7?
