Switching Back to Table View

If you have multiple views, click the Table view tab at the top of your Collection. If you only have one Gallery View, use the configure menu (⋯) to add a Table view. Your data is always safe: switching views never changes your entries.

​
Preview Types

Gallery View pulls preview images from the content inside each entry’s page. To add an image to a card’s preview, open the entry and add an image block to its content.
Open any entry in your Collection and add an image to its page content. Gallery View automatically uses that image as the card preview.
You can control how each card’s preview area is displayed:
  • Document (default): shows a preview of the entry’s page content
  • Fill: fills the card’s preview area with the entry’s image
  • Immersive: uses the image as a full-bleed card background
  • No preview: hides the preview area entirely, showing only properties
Change the preview type in Gallery Options (see below).

​
Card Sizes

Gallery View offers two card sizes:
  • Small: compact grid, more cards visible at once
  • Large: bigger previews, fewer cards per row
Access Gallery Options from the configure menu (⋯) to customize your view:
  • Card Size: Small or Large
  • Preview: Document, Fill, Immersive, or No preview
  • Limit visible fields: when enabled (default), cards show a limited number of properties with a “+n” indicator for the rest. Turn this off to show every enabled field on each card.
  • Fields: choose which fields appear on each card and toggle their visibility
Gallery Options panel
