Slide show format for educational use

Is there a “slideshow” option here for astrophotos for presentation or displays for public star parties? Photos should have photographer’s credits on them.

I’m new here and have looked around some, but don’t see a slideshow option for members’ images.

This is actually a great idea. I guess users would need to pick which pictures to include in the slideshow, not just all the pictures on a single profile.

I guess we could create “Albums” or “Collections”, and the slideshow could be run on each album separately. The current “Favorites” pictures could be converted to an album, one of many.

Brainstorming apart, I have just added this feature to the backlog and I’ll make sure to update this thread when it’s done :slight_smile:

Just a quick update, a new upgrade has been released (version 250120.1950) that improves the full screen display of pictures, akin to slideshows. You can open any gallery or album, open the first picture in full screen and navigate from there.

I hope you like it! If you try it, let me know what you think.

Clear skies!

Hi Seb,

Maybe I’m missing something, but when I’m in an album and use this feature, it doesn’t seem to work as expected.

For example on this album: Astronomy Tools & Astrophotography
If you scroll through the images, you’ll see images that don’t belong in the album.

Hi Nico,

Thanks for reporting this bug. It should be fixed now in version 250214.1904. Let me know how it goes!
