Pieces
The Pieces tab hangs your work.
Global Wall Settings
Section titled “Global Wall Settings”These apply to every wall of one row.
- Landscape print size: the longest side of a piece that is wider than it is tall, or square.
- Portrait print size: the longest side of a piece that is taller than it is wide. A smaller size here, say 60 cm against 90 cm for landscape, hangs portrait and landscape pieces at about the same height. Until you change it, it follows the landscape size.
Both are used when pieces are not hung at their exported size.
- Gaps: the space between pieces.
- Eye line: the height of the pieces’ centers, and of a visitor’s eyes, so that every piece is met level. A new Gallery’s is 150 cm, the standard hanging height in a gallery.
- Hang pieces at the size they were exported at: hangs each piece at its own printed size. A piece exported in Screen hangs at its pixels at the resolution chosen in Frame Weaver’s Output dimensions, 72 or 144 PPI. A piece may be up to 40 m on its longest side.
The note beneath says roughly how many pieces the walls hold at this size and gap, wall by wall.
- Reflow hangs everything again from wall 1, in the order it is walked, at this size and gap. Pieces that no longer fit go back among your other pieces.
- Auto-gap finds the widest gap at which every piece has a wall, including the ones listed among your other pieces, and hangs them all.
Revert undoes either.
Hung Pieces
Section titled “Hung Pieces”Hung pieces lists every piece on the walls, in the order they are walked. Select one, or press it in the Gallery, to open its settings beneath it:
- Gallery Thumbnail: this piece stands for the Gallery in the Main Console and in the building’s lists.
- Longest Side: a size of this piece’s own, instead of the wall’s.
- Left Gap: extra space before the piece.
- Right Gap: extra space after the piece, pushing the next piece further away, or, after the last piece, keeping it further from the wall’s end.
- Wall and Row: where it hangs. Row is available on a wall of rows.
- ← → move it along its wall, and Take down returns it to your other pieces.
Your Other Pieces
Section titled “Your Other Pieces”Your other pieces lists the pieces in your library not yet hung in this Gallery. Choose a folder, or find a piece by its title, to narrow the list. ↻ reads your library again, for anything sent since the Console opened.
Hang on chooses where pieces go. While the Pieces tab is open it follows the wall you are looking at, if that wall takes pieces: walk to another, or round to the other side of a partition, and it changes. A wall you choose from the list yourself stays until you face a different one.
- Entire Gallery (the default): Auto-hang hangs the pieces listed from wall 1 onwards, each wall taking as many as it holds before the next piece goes on to the next wall. A piece’s Hang button puts it on the wall you are looking at.
- A wall, by its number and name: Auto-hang fills that wall only, as many as it holds, and says how many it hung and how many had no room. Each Hang button puts the piece at the end of that wall.
On a wall of two or three rows, both Hang and Auto-hang fill the rows in turn: the top row until it is full, then the next. On a wall whose Auto-view Pattern goes bottom up, the bottom row fills first.
Pieces already hung stay where they are.
