Fancybox media viewer

KchoPrro:
Sorry if the question is irrelevant. Would it be possible to change the look of fancybox in CPG?

I have seen the website of https://fancyapps.com and the example slideshow is quite good:

https://fancyapps.com/docs/ui/fancybox/#demo-1

The images move horizontally in transition, the arrow icons look more aesthetic to me, and you have the option to show or not the carousel if there is more than one image.

I have tried to check the configuration but it is too complicated for me, you have done a fabulous job ron4mac.

The version of the code used on their website (4.x) is no longer an open source project and requires licensing. I used version 3.x in my plugin, which was more freely usable.
I have considered paying for use of their new code, but there have been a few things stopping me:
1) performance - When I last tested it, it didn't seem to function a crisply as the v3 code. And there were/are some bugs with slideshow video.
2) time - Finding the time to figure out how to wedge the very different code into my plugin doesn't come easy.
3) effort vs return - I don't even use CPG - so it provides nothing for me. And I have grown very annoyed with take-but-not-give that is now pervasive in our world.

With all that - an upgrade is not beyond the realm of possibility sometime in the future.

Great and wise answer from you.

Now I understand perfectly, if you don't use CPG of course you have earned heaven for everything you do for CPG.

Thank you very much for all the work you put in and for answering users' questions, it's a great effort of yours, I can keep Fancybox as it is right now  :-*
