How Should you Work with Ion.Image Slider

Thumbnails must have the same height to make slider work correctly. I mean to say that in the attached skins, the height of each thumbnail is 264px, and the width doesn’t matter. If you want to change this value, you will have to change the height of slider from the CSS-skin file.

Or initialize slider with custom settings:

 zoomText: "Увеличить", // text near zoom icon; set "", if don't need
 startFrom: 0, // # of start picture
 slideShow: true, // enable slide show
 slideShowDelay: 7 // pause between picture change (if slide show is on)
});
