Hi ,
As you know , when you add more than 7-8 items in an album in G2 , when you are visiting an item in single view , the sidebar contains the links to the other images , but when the other images are alot the links seem like this :
1.item1
2.item2
3.item3
4.item4
...
14.item14

my question is abut the "..." part , I know how can I prevent it in the template , but I want it to be replaced by the other 11 links of that album and images .
How can I do that ?!
I think that it's not a template based feature ?!
please help me with this question ...
best regards

layouts/matrix/layout.inc, look for function _loadPeerInfo.
maybe just try changing $windowSize to be really big.. I haven't tried it, but it might work.

Dear mindless ;
The soloution you told me , worked great !
thanks so much for your help .
but I have a question : How could I realize such a thing me , myself ?!
I think that G2 development structure is so advanced and complicated , and there is no development document for it yet .
so How could I realize an structure of it , fo further customization...
best regards
and thank you so much

we hope for most customization to be possible via themes (css) and modifying template (tpl) files (you can see instructions at the top of each tpl file). since your change actually requires more data (titles and links to items) from G2 you needed a change to the layout code itself, so this is a more advanced change.
