zentools2 slideshow captions

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hi, I'm trying to add captions to my zentools2 slideshow-backstretch. The small overlay that pulls in from the right side only shows a word or two. It cuts off the text if it's longer than that. For instance I tried "A view from our window" with plus (+) signs between the words. The plus signs were stripped out when I uploaded the images but the overlay in the slideshow did not stretch to accommodate them anyway. In the module's title options the character count is set to 1000. Am I missing something?

Any help would be appreciated!

Hi Joanne,

Are you pulling the images from an image folder?

Regarding "+" is this the separator?

in the content tab what is listed in Render the following characters as spaces

You're right. I had a hypen as the character to be rendered as spaces. I renamed my images with hypens instead of plus signs and voila! The captions are there.

Thanks!
