Lightbox image upscaling prevention

    Hello

    I realized that Modula lightbox dos upscale all my images when presented. This is very unfortunate because the images quality suffers.
    I can not find anything online to prevent this from happening.
    Please can you help me out?

    I use a image size of 640px (shorter side) and mostly 960px on longer side with a few exceptions.
    I would like that Modula never upscales any images.

    On a side note it would by great if you would add information on the Modula website about which images sizes Modula requires. What I mean is dos Modula downscale images from originals for thumbnails and mobile galleries or it pulls from the smaller images in the database created by WP.
    I would like to limit the mess of WP creates with every upload creating multiple sizes of the same file but considering to give Modula still what it needs.
    As mentioned above most images I use for the galleries are 960×640 and I would prefer to only have 1 but max. two additional sizes for each upload. Any recommendation?

    Thanks for your time, I appreciate!

    Hello @beatrice12

    Unfortunately it is not resolved and the time needed to answer this basic questions takes to long.
    Please give me a heads up today – this entire project is stuck.

    Issue one:
    I try Modula to display my images in the lightbox not bigger than they are. Max size is 960×640 and the gallery keeps on stretching my images which is not nice because they do not look nice that way! I also do not intend to use larger images. Is there not a way to tell modula to never upscale images?

    Issue two:
    Thumbnails, I realized that I have way too many image sizes and tumb’s.
    What image sizes are required by Modula, does Modula create sizes by itself and could Modula run flawlessly if I have only original file size (960×640)?
    It would by very useful to have this information in the Docs.
    – Which sizes Modula requires.
    – Which sizes Modula dos use.
    – If using more than just the original which size is the first you would recommend to have. (max two)
    – How pulling works so one could adjust for best result. (including mess less databases)

    Issue three:
    I have several galleries and albums where I set the cursor to “pointer” but that doesn’t work. It keeps on using the “magnifying glass”. Is this a known issue?

    Thanks

    Hello @shoushan,

    I took a closer look and we replied to your email two days ago but didn’t receive a response. I just wanted to follow up and see if there’s any update from your side.


    To help resolve the issues you’re facing, could you please send me some screenshots of your gallery settings? It would also be helpful if you could provide a link to the page where you’re encountering the problems. You can upload the images here via Imgur.


    If you’re using our Pro version, please reply to the email I sent you earlier, as I’m not allowed to provide support for premium versions here on the forum. I’ll make sure to assist you further through email.

    Best regards,

    Beatrice.
