Enlarged Images vs. Gallery Spacing

Landscape orientation images can be enlarged in the gallery by you or the main client of the gallery. Enlarged images in the gallery add variation to the grid and allow you to create a better balance with portrait photos and break the monotonous layout. Learn more about enlarging images and setting the default enlarged images here.

Depending on the gallery template chosen by you, the spacing between the photos may vary. To maintain aesthetic gallery consistency, the vertical and horizontal spacing between images remain the same size at all times.

When landscape images are enlarged, photos are rearranged to the best possible fit within the gallery. However, minimal photo cropping may appear to accommodate consistency between photo spacing. For example, after grid adjustments, the photo below was cropped on the edges.

In cases where cropping is undesirable to your taste, try enlarging or making enlarged photos smaller adjacent to the cropped photo. This will rearrange the grid. You can then disable the photo enlargement feature.

To enable or disable the photo enlargement feature, checkmark Enable flexible layout grid in the Gallery Setup tab.
