how to toggle descriptions?

Post by zooph »

Hey all,

I was wondering if there might be a way to set the image description to "toggle" on/off in the modal box. I like the description set to lightbox mode, but if the description is very long, it can end up greying out a large section of the photograph. I want viewers to be able to look at the photo, and have the option to read the description there or not.

Here's what I was thinking:
One of the buttons is a reload button. Would it be possible to simply include another button that reloads the picture with the decription? That way you end up with two reload buttons: one toggles the description on, one toggles it off.

Is there an easy way to do this? Any other ideas on how to achieve my goal? Please keep in mind I am not a coder, but I can follow instructions competently if they are clear!

Thanks for any clues!

Hi, there is no such option, but Joomla! includes pane methods, so e.g. with help of pane methods this can be customized, e.g. like the link here: (post message - the form will be toggled):
