How to publish

Publish Sections

Publish Sections Overview

The Publishing interface is divided in five sections:

1: Preset/Parameter List, 2: Source Code, 3: Scripts, 4: Preview and 5: Context Help.

You can change the size of each section by dragging the handles of the section bars to the desired size.

After selecting a publishing option, you can set the desired dimensions, add parameters to design the viewer or image as desired and afterwards copy the source code displayed.

1. Preset/Parameter List

You can choose between various presets (Static Image, Responsive Image, Zoom & Pan, 360° Spins, Catalogues, etc.) within this tab. After choosing a preset the list of available parameters for the publishing option will appear.

2. Source Code

In this area you can see the source code for your selected publishing option which you can edit and copy to publish the images.

3. Required Scripts

In case you have selected a publishing option which requires a viewer (e.g. Responsive Image or Zoom & Pan), the required scripts which need to be included for loading the viewers are listed here.

4. Preview

In this section you see a live preview of the changes applied to the source code. The preview also changes depending on which preset you choose. This makes it easy to immediately see how your images or viewer will look like when it is implemented.

This section dynamically shows you a description of the selected preset or parameter.
