Hi,

in gallery2, the piclens plugin was able to upscale images. This is not possible per default in gallery3.

In the file slideshow_event.php, there is a parameter maxScale:0 in the startupscript for piclens. If you eleminate this parameter, piclens performs an upscale of the image, but in some cases, you can see pixels.

To smooth the upscaled image and achieve the same result as in gallery2, you can create a file called crossdomain.xml in the root directory of your webbrowser:

Quote:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/>
<allow-access-from domain="*.cooliris.com" secure="false" />
<allow-access-from domain="*.piclens.com" secure="false" />
</cross-domain-policy>
