Book Picture Album

Post by Ossie57 » 15 Sep 2016 16:23

Hello,

I am trying to put a book together and am using the Media Report to add the various pictures/photos of family members into the back of the book. Using the same pictures, which are linked to the relevant people using the 'Link to Face' option, I then get the full photo plus the thumbnail and relevant source and information. I only want the main photo in the book but still need the thumbnail in the tree and the descendant reports.

Any ideas on how to get the full photo without the thumbnail from the Media Report?
Thank you

Ann, you asked for similar advice in Media Report in Book (12148).
Is that solution no longer suitable?

Do you still want to keep all the People and Sources sub-section details?
If so, then the best I can suggest is on the Options > Pictures tab, set the Details picture to Custom size with Width of 0.01" that reduce the thumbnails to a tiny dot.

Another technique is in how_to:report_content_multimedia_format_layout|> Report Content, Media, Format and Layout under Book Free Page Content that offers some features like a word-processor to compose each page from any image and text boxes.
