    A well-known piece of standard functionality at iModeler is that clicking on an image attached to an article or group post will bring the same image in full size. That's fine, but browsing through an entire set of images this way used to require a somewhat excessive use of the browser's back button.

    Enter the updated slideshow function - a technique used to browse through all enlarged images using an elegant and navigable page overlay. It pops up automatically when clicking on an image, allowing the user to smoothly browse through all images in an article by using the arrow keys.

    While the slideshow is displayed, the rest of the page content is temporarily disabled, but can be easliy brought back by clicking on the close (x) button or pressing the Esc key.

    With the today's update the slideshow is also fully responsive, meaning that it should work smoothly also with tablets and mobile phones.

    You can test in on the attached pair of images below. Enjoy and please let us know about any further suggestions.
