Current behavior:

In UV version 2, all thumbnails were shown per 2 in the left panel:

In version 3, this does not work anymore:

Strangely enough, all goes well when viewingHint is set to paged:

I've looked in the source code, but all seems well there: classes like oneCol and left-to-right are used correctly, width and height of the images are set correctly.

Expected behavior:

Thumbnails in the left panel should be shown per 2.

Other information:

I think this is the correct behaviour. You now need to have viewingHint: paged to see thumbs side by side. There are use cases where you want the thumbs to appear in a single column.

I understand, but in that case the panel becomes too wide. If you set the option panelExpandedWidth to a smaller value, then it becomes a problem for manifests where the viewingHint is paged (thumbnails do not fit next to each other).

And what about the fully expanded gallery? There the thumbnails are always arranged from left to right. I think we should always use all available space. It is simply more condense.

I thought the viewingHint only applied to the viewer (main panel) itself?

viewingHint now deliberately applies to the thumbnail panel as not all manifests are paged. But I take your point about the gap... Maybe we should increase the size of the thumbs to fit the whole width of the panel? The expanded gallery just lists the thumbnails left-to-right without grouping them into pages, so should be ok as is.

ok
