Univeristy Slides displaying slowly

Featured Replies

hello,

I work for a large University and lately I've been scanning slides and putting them into FMP 7. I'm using the photo catalog to display the slides. The issue I'm having is it takes forever and a day to display the images.

My question is how can I speed that up, and is it possible to make the default viewing mode "List View?" If it is, is it also possible to make it so that the only way they can see the slides blown up is for them to download them?

Also the file sizes for the pictures are about 3 megs.

Thank you for any help.

The only way to speed up display of photos is to create a thumbnail picture of the original image and reference that instead of the original photo in your layout. You can have a different layout point to the actual photo to show a more detailed version of the photo.

Yes but how do I get the layout to show the thumbnail view as default when viewed from the web?
