Navigating Photos in Files - Back & Forward?
I would like to navigate photos in the files view back & forward, but you can seemingly only view each file individually and hit the back button and then select another one. The j & k shortcuts only work in the file name view, not when the image is shown. Is there any way to do this I'm not seeing?
I share the account with someone and I would like to share comments with them on a bunch of photos. Navigating between those photos just takes a lot of extra clicking it seems. |

Create URL at subdomain to see photo gallery
I agree. But you can easily get much better navigation by creating a link to the files, then sharing that link with the other person(s).
So you can see that the Files menu is really just for uploading and moving the image files around. You can open two browser windows, one showing the Files folder and the other showing the photo gallery as I have shown above. In Filmstrip viewing mode they will always be sorted by name ^ (normal sorting order). If the Files folder is sorted in the same default manner, the images will be sorted identically in the two browser tabs or windows. Bill |

Thank you for the explanation. I should have specified that I'm aware of the photo gallery function, but you can't assign comments through that interface. I see that you can add comments to the files and have it show up on the photo gallery, so I guess that's something.
It seems that having comments would be more useful for collaboration if you could click through them like a gallery instead of having to click into each one and back. |
