Photo gallery activity

PHOTO GALLERY ACTIVITY #

A photo gallery app activity is a basic activity for an Andromo-built mobile application. It allows the developer to collect and put in order pieces of visual content.

To add a photo gallery for Android app, create a new project, press the Components button on the left side of the screen, expand the Popular list of options, and choose a  Photo gallery.

A photo gallery activity can be placed in a carousel group or a list group. A list group is static and holds the whole screen space (it comes by default), while a carousel group is scrollable.

When you have added a photo gallery activity and selected it (its icon on a builder structure should turn green), you can make group actions with this feature on the left part of the builder.

Firstly, you can upload your content by pressing the Browse images button. Choose a source folder on your laptop, highlight a required area, and upload all pieces of content together. Pay attention that all the pictures should be a maximum of 5MB in size per image.

When your files are uploaded, you can select them all by clicking on Group actions – select all.

Also in the Group action section, you can deselect all, or select some of them and move them to top, move to bottom, or delete them.

When you click on each piece of content from your file list, you can change a file’s name and add a description to it, if needed.

After taking necessary group actions on the activity and content, you can move to the right part of the builder and customize your photo gallery. Our app builder offers you three levels of customization.

Here, you have an URL of this particular activity. You can later use it for cross-linking among other app activities (for example, a custom page).

In this section, you can change the title of your activity, add a subtitle and a description to it. This will help users navigate through your app.

CONTENT SETTINGS #

This section helps you organize a visual representation of your content inside the activity.

You can choose the way your pieces of content will be seen inside the activity in the Grid style section:

  • Image only, if you want only visual content to be represented in the app;
  • Image with name, if pieces of content need to be distinguished by names, too;
  • Image with name and description, if it is necessary to see descriptions to every picture, too.
