Example: Skyscraper

Showcasing towering photos of architectural landmarks around the world, this "Skyscraper" example demonstrates a number of styles and available options.

The most notable change is the orientation, with SlideShowPro for Flash sized taller rather than wider to display the portrait-size images. The images are scaled using the "Crop Fit to All" option, which uses the entire surface area of the component and allows part of the image to be seen underneath the caption and navigation at the bottom.

Another notable difference is the inline style of caption. This places a static caption area inside the content area of the component, instead of revealing it on mouseover (which is the default). As a finishing touch, the caption text is aligned in the middle.

Last but certainly not least is the Quartz Button Pack (included in all SlideShowPro versions). This pack was used to replace SlideShowPro's default navigation icons. The buttons are semi-transparent, as well as the navigation underneath, which gives a glass-like style to harmonize conceptually with the gleaming, towering structures.
