11.11.06 | SlideShowPro 1.4.1b4 Released

The 1.4.1 beta train keeps rollin' on. Today I'm releasing beta #4, which includes a big change to image captions. You can now display captions inline at either the top or bottom of the component. Both inline captions span the width of the component, update immediately when an image loads (as opposed to after transition, like the rollover caption), and they don't cover your photos. If you use image scaling your images will respect the height of the inline caption, even if caption length changes from photo to photo.

"On Mouse Over" is still the default caption option, but you can now position mouseover captions at the bottom as well. (They roll-up from underneath the navigation bar).

Lastly, the "Always" option from 1.4.0 (and earlier) has been removed. There isn't much point in keeping Always when Inline accomplishes pretty much the same thing, but with better functionality.

So if you're interested in kicking the beta tires, login to your account to download. You can read about what else has changed in the version history.
