Uploading Images to Your MediaCenter

The "MediaCenter" window resembles the StudioLine Image Archive. On the left side is a folder pane. Each folder can be turned into a distinct online album (see below). The content pane on the right side shows the images contained in the folder that currently is selected in the folder pane. The toolbar offers a link to view the online album on the web plus buttons for a variety of functions. The status line on the bottom shows the remaining space for your MediaCenter.

To upload images to your album, simply select them in the Image Archive by clicking on them, then hold the left mouse button and drag the images into the right (content) pane of "MediaCenter" window. Instead, you can also drag the images to a folder in the folder pane.

upload

Another option is to drag an entire folder from the Image Archive to the "MediaCenter" window. This will upload this folder and all sub-folders to your MediaCenter.

You are free to drag images to a different folder at any time, or hand-sort the images inside a folder by dragging them in the desired order.

newfolder

The toolbar button "New Folder" or the context menu entry "New" on folders is used to create a new subfolder in the current album. Enter a suitable name and then click "OK".

Sharing Folders as Album

Any folder in the "MediaCenter" window can become a distinct online album, each with unique settings. You will assign an online name to the folder, which will become part of the online album’s web address (URL) - e.g. "sample.MediaCenter.PLUS/testalbum". You can find the web address for an online album, by first clicking its folder in the folder pane and then look up the current web address in the toolbar.
