The module is based on the development tutorial "Wave Display Effect with jQuery" of Mary Lou from Codrops.
The module shows images and content in a unique form – a wave. The idea is to initially have some smaller thumbnails rotated and placed in the shape of a sine curve. When clicking on a thumbnail, we’ll “zoom” in to see a medium sized version. Clicking again will make the large content area appear in a popup window; here we will show some more content extracted from joomla content.
Module allows to define following settings:
- jquery components loading (jQuery, jQuery UI and easing)
- data source: joomla content: ids or category (ies) and
- gallery parametrisation:
- pre/post texts (html supported)
- gallery left/right margins
- scroller parameters
- carousel mode: circular or not
- title parameters :color, bg color; highlight mode (none, first word, autonumber highlight, autonumber dropcap)
- sine curve parameters
- small thumbs mode parameters
- medium thumbs mode parameters
- item popup content parameters
Browser support: all recent browsers and IE7+ (without rotation effect)

Documentation
Implementation notes:
- all images must have same physical sizes (do not mix portrait/landscape formats)
- images can be defined:
- in article content: (j1.5 or J2.5)
- in images & links section of article (j2.5) in intro/full text image
- the size of the image is the one used in the item popup mode
- supports only one module instance per page. jQuery plugin parameters and base CSS specific are generated in line to parametrise the module display but common css is defined in a stylesheet file (adapt as needed)
- some basic assets (overlay/background patters, hoverzoom icon, dropcaps) are provided.
Note:
The module uses a modified version of the original plugin in order to allow more gallery parametrization and to support mousewheel.
