[Gramps-users] Gramps-Images in Narrative Web Pages

[Bruce D. <bde...@co...>]

Gramps, I noticed that the Narrative Web Page generator displayed all the 
image objects for an individual in a single column.  After some tinkering 
with "display_additional_images_as_gallery" in NavWebPage.py I was able to 
display multiple images in a row.  This appeared to improve that section of 
the web page considerably.  I have included the resulting code below, note 
that changed lines of code have a #bjd.  This code is very rough at this 
stage but it does provide a starting point if there is any interest in 
developing it further.
