User Interface Language: The language of the generated pages. The user interface language can be changed from the Advanced/Preferences/Language dropdown list and reselecting the skin. Include keyboard navigation help: When checked the keyboard navigation tips are displayed at the bottom of the page. Enable local scripting: Local scripting is blocked by default by MicroSoft IE starting with XP SP2. You can enable scripts manually in the top bar by clicking "Allow Active Content". However if you include a "magic" line in the header of each HTML page there will be no script blocking in the price of blocking the other file types (PDF, AVI, DOC, ... ) to be linked. You can choose if you want this magic line or not. For more information read this article. Remember this setting affects only local web pages (hard disk or CD). Once you generated a page with the magic line, you cannot link to other local HTML files generated without it! What scripting does is keyboard navigation, rollover effects and slideshow. Use uplink: When the user is at the highest level of the gallery (the main page) you can give a link where the up button takes him. You can choose here if you want to use the link or not. If you uncheck this option JAlbum will still generate an uplink when it finds a valid index page (index.html) in the parent folder of the gallery's destination folder. (Rename or remove it temporarily if you don't want the link!) Link up from the main page: This is the link described above. This is usually '../index.html', but you can specify here anything - e.g. if your main site resides at a different location than your gallery, use the full path here: http://www.thisismysite.com/index.htm. Use homepage link: You can have a custom link at the bottom of each page. Tick here if you want to use this option. My homepage: You can put here the descrition of the custom link. Link: The path of the custom link. Open in the same window: Shall the custom link open in a new or the same window? |

Include slide show: Index pages can be rotated automatically too. You can specify here the delay time in seconds. Loop: Shall the slide show start over at the last index page? Page transition on Index pages: If the user uses Internet Explorer the pages will fade-in and out. Large thumbnails for folders: The folder thumbnails will look the same way as the slide thumbnails - no folder icon with reduced size thumb will be used. Text below thumbnails: This is self-explanatory If 'comment' is checked the folder comments also will be displayed below the folder thumbs. |

Include slide show: Automatic rotation of slide pages and the delay time in seconds. Loop: Shall the slide show start over at the last page? Page transition on Slide pages: If the user uses Internet Explorer the pages will fade-in and out. Show date: Uncheck if you do not want the date to be displayed at the top box along with the comment. Print service: Online print order possibility. You can choose a service provider here, or none. Easy navigation on the slides: You can navigate through the pages simply clicking parts of the main picture.
Show Exif info: You can choose whether to show Photographic data (Exposition settings) below the pictures or not. Copy protecion: Protects the hi-res images from saving (drag and dropping) to the disk. Works for slide images and originals too. |

Known bugs Sometimes when changing skins (e.g. BluePlusPlus) the custom user variables may interfere with each other and for example prevents Chameleon to use the correct gallery name, and also sometimes makes JAlbum itself unstable. Use the "Tools->Clear User Defined Variables" tool or just restart the program to avoid these problems. |
