Hi
In tab visual editor I set all images in my page _list.asp to thumbnail. Unfortunately this setting is valid for the _view and _printerfriendly pages as well. I would like to have there instead the full resolution image. How can I make that ?

Philip,
if your images are stored in the database just check off thumbnail field on the view and print pages on the Choose fields tab.
If your images are stored in the folder on the server edit SQL query on the Edit SQL query tab.

Here is a sample:

select fieldname1,

fieldname1 as fieldname1_large,

...

from tablename



Then check off fieldname1_large on the view and print pages on the Choose fields tab.

Don't check Create thumbnails option for this fieldname1_large field.

Jane,
I'm not sure wether I understand you response right: I have one field for the picture; pictures ar uploaded to server to a directory ../images/. With that I can't follow your suggestion "select fieldname1,

fieldname1 as fieldname1_large,

...

from tablename"
What is the purpose of fieldname1_large then?

Philip,
fieldname1_large contains link to your large picture, fieldname1 contains link to the thumbnail.
If you have difficulties with these settings publish your project on Demo Account and send to support@xlinesoft.com a URL to your pages and I'll help you.
