Help:Image lightbox

The image lightbox is a box that appears when you click on an image, allowing you to see the image in greater detail.

Cropped bottoms
In the new UCP version, due to some displays setting the resolution of an image preview to the maximum possible horizontal display, the vertical height of the image becomes too much to fit into the pain, resulting in the bottom being cropped off as it falls outside the lightbox's boundaries.
 * this does not happen to all users of the UCP and it is unclear why it causes that for some and not others

User details
The top bar contains details of who uploaded a file and which articles it is used in.

Full size
The "see full size image" option opens the image directly in your browser, displaying the basic image without any Fandom options or features. Note: this option does not appear when viewing videos.
 * this feature was removed in the new UCP version

More info
The "more info" option takes you to the file description page, where you can view more information about the file, including its description, file history and more.

Sharing
The "share" option makes it easy to share the image you are viewing. It provides the standard link box, where the link can be copied and shared into social media such as Facebook and Twitter. It also displays a link to the file description page, and a method of emailing the image to a friend.

Pinning the top and bottom bars
A button at the bottom right corner of the image lightbox allows you to 'pin' the top and bottom info bars. Once clicked, it will prevent the bars from hiding after a few seconds of inactivity.
 * the "unlocked" icon (which one clicks to LOCK the bars) was changed from an upward arrow to an unlocked padlock in the new version
 * the "locked" icon (which one clicks to UNlock the bars) was changed from a downward arrow to a locked padlock in the new version

Bottom carousel
The bottom carousel contains more images and videos, which can be viewed by clicking one of the images at the bottom of the image lightbox. You can also navigate through the carousel by clicking the arrows on either side of the main image.

Bypassing the image lightbox
To bypass the image lightbox, hold "Ctrl" (if you're on Windows) or "Command" (if you're on Mac), then left click an article image. Doing so will automatically take you to the file description page.

Hotkeys
There are three hotkeys:
 * The arrow key leads to the next image
 * The arrow key leads to the previous image.
 * The key closes the modal. (Please use the X on UCP)
