deep zoom is not displayed

06-27-2009 1:10 PM |

Hello everyone,

I am using VSTS 2008 + C# + .Net 3.5 + Windows Vista Enterprise x86. I have used Silverlight Deep Zoom composer tool to export my composed images into Siverlight type. Everything is previewed fine after export successful message (I select browse from browser).

But when I click the Test.html in the exported project to show Deep Zoom effects from browser, nothing is displayed. Here is my screen snapshot. Any ideas what is wrong?

You're opening the html page in the yourprojectfolder/Exported Data/yourprojectname/DeepZoomProjectWeb/ClientBin folder, correct?

That works for me...

Mark, to my surprise, there is no clientbin folder in my exported project.

I have made two screen snapshots for,

1. my project folder generated by Deep Zoom Composer under Exported Data folder;
2. the content of GeneratedImages folder under my project folder.

Please refers them to,

Hi Mark, in my most recent post, I tried to generate again the Siverlight project by using export function of Deep Zoom composer, but the same issue. I have posted my screen snapshot below, I am not sure whether my export settings are correct? Any ideas what is wrong?

 Hi I wonder. Your export screen is very different than mine. see here:

can you tell me the version of Deep zoom Composer you are using?

I think I got it. My version is older that yours.. I am installing new one and posting result here.

Thanks Jay, your solution works. Final question, why deep zoom is not displayed when run locally (i.e. double click Test.html)?

I think the parameter 

<param name="initParams" value="adFile=GeneratedImages" />

is unable to pass the folder information to the Silverlight object when started from local folder.

Since there is no Silverlight project of Deepzoom which we got in previous version of Deep Zoom, we don't have much access to modify this behavior.

Thanks Jay,

1. "is unable to pass the folder information to the Silverlight object when started from local folder." -- you mean we must pass absolute path value? Relative path GeneratedImages not working?

2. "Since there is no Silverlight project of Deepzoom which we got in previous version of Deep Zoom, we don't have much access to modify this behavior." -- sorry for my bad English, which behavior do you mean we can not modify?

3. "previous version of Deep Zoom" -- you mean previous version of Deep Zoom Composor?

2. In previous version of deepzoom composer, the export folder also have complete C# Silverlight project. So in source code, you can actually see what is happening and can also change that. This project is now not exported with current version of DeepZoom Composer.
