Full-screen doesn't work for images/slide show

[agger-magenta]

When watching images in gallery view, there's a "toggle size" control, but it appears to be dimmed and doesn't work.

I think that it isn't a bug, the "toggle size" button is dimmed because the image is already in original full size.

I think it's not.

E.g. in this page:

http://baobaxia.modspil.dk/#mocambos/dpadua/bbx/search/

If you click on the first image, you'll get the lightbox view on only part of the screen.

However, if you click on the medium (text below the image) and click "baixar", you'll see that the image is actually much larger.

However, the lightbox is probably displaying a smaller version of the image, something between thumbnail and original size.

Hmmm, this raises the issue whether there should be an option to go full-screen with the original image. But since the present behaviour seems to be by design, that means this ticket is not a bug, but a feature request. We should probably leave it for now.

Speaking with Sydro we agreed to maximize image (as big as possible) in slideshow view.. He's working on that!

Great! :-)

Hi there,
I have an idea: set image height by default as window.innerHeight, what will get the current height of window.
The other fix is to create a real full screen, what depends on lightbox functionality.

The above commit changes config.js.example, so, copy the new config to config.js in order to manually set image size.

The funny thing is, though, that full screen works fine for video, ideally it should be the same for images. Will test your commit now!

After introducing the change in config.js, I get this error, which originates in jquery.fancybox.pack.js when previewing images:

The requested content cannot be loaded.
Please try again later.

Preview of video etc still works fine.

OK, there's no doubt it works much better now! The images are fetched in higher resolution and shown as big as possible within the browser, and that makes the slideshow much more impressive.

The "full-screen" option is confusing though, if you choose it the description is not displayed for the selected image, but when it comes to the next image in the slideshow, the description is back and thus the "full-screen" is forgotten.
