[ANSWERED] image field: can we disable the modal-window?

dear flexicontent-team,

in the latest flexicontent versions, the image field has the modal popup for selecting the image. is it possible to disable it? each image means an extra click and i would save some time when it s disabled.

tnx for feedback!

Hello

there is no option for disabling the modal,

changing this will mean supporting it too and risk breaking things
plus there are now higher priorities

- Also joomla built-in selection and other extension do the same thing they use a modal


at least the modal is best implemented
- provides max space for browsing the images
- autosized on browser window resize
- locks scrolling of parent window properly
- works even for moving form built-in elements too ...

thanks for both feedback.

i can see the advantage from modal, but when uploading lots of pictures, it s a disadvantage.
just being curieus: in the older versions it worked without modal, what was the reason to add modal?

cheers

Hello

-1- need more space for browsing thumbnails,
(and in frontend the problem with space was even more worse)
-2- wanted to have a similar UI for image-gallery field in modes: "folder mode" and "DB-mode"
