Add height option for cycle module.

It comes from jquery cycle. It calculates a width and a height and adds it to the div. If you know the exact width and height it should be then in the advanced options of jquery cycle in views slideshow add width and height values.

I am also having problems with IE and views_slideshow. The odd thing is that the photos aren't even showing up in IE. But they are in Chrome and Firefox

For example the first slide is has this photo in it: http://triadanet.com/sites/default/files/burningfire_0.jpg and which renders fine in firefox and chrome but in ie you get the red x.

In addition, the cycle doesn't move in IE for this slide show or the other one which I have on the page which is just a text based one.

Here is the code:

There should be a width and height in the advanced options. Where you found slideResize and containerResize

remove the px use 158. I'll have to see about adding height.

The width and height advanced options do not work on 6.x-2.2 either. i had it set as height: 200

Having the same problem that views_slideshow add 4px to the height that I have. This is ignore by all but IEEEEEEEEEEEE!

In my case, I solve it by set the ClearType option under Internet Explorer Options of Slideshow configuration (views) to false. See attached.

attached!

I see it in the 3.x version. You can manually add it in the advanced options in the 2.x version

I am having the same issue. 4px are added to the height of the containing div.
In the jquery Cycle Custom options I tried selecting Height and Adding 300 to the "Advanced Options Value" Box and nothing happened. Also the box below the "Advanced Options Value" remained to only have {} in it.

I them tried all of the following, one at a time, in the second box with no success:

{ height:300}
{ height:'300'}
{ height:'auto'}
{ height:auto}

Anything else I can try?

Have you tried to set fit=1 and height=xxx px?

Have you tried to set fit=1 and height=xxx px?

add that where? In Advanced Options? The advanced options do not save after update. There are two Advanced options boxes. Do i put it in the second box like this?:

{
fit=1
height=xxx px
}

If so it does not work! it breaks the slide show. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help

Support for Views Slideshow 6.x is mostly deprecated (ie bug fixes and major errors may be looked at and security issues, but not really anything else), so closing.
