What Detailed Product Images module does

Detailed Product Images module allows you to add detailed images for products. A detailed product image is an image that helps a customer to get a better idea of a product by showing it in detail.

Depending on the module settings, detailed product images in your store can be displayed in one of the following display modes:

Mode I: Detailed product images are displayed within the body of the Product details page in the Detailed images section.

Mode II: Detailed product images are not displayed on the Product details page, but a link View detailed images (N), where N is the number of detailed images available for the product, is displayed below the product image.

When a customer clicks on the link, detailed product images are displayed in a popup window.

Mode III: Detailed product image thumbnails are displayed below the product image.

When the mouse cursor is placed over a thumbnail, the corresponding detailed image is displayed in the place of the product image. When a customer clicks on a thumbnail, a popup window opens displaying the selected detailed image and the thumbnails of the other detailed images. Clicking on thumbnails inside the popup window opens the corresponding detailed images.

The popup window used to display detailed images is identical for Mode II and Mode III. It displays a full-sized detailed product image and a gallery of thumbnails of all the other detailed images of the product:

After opening this window, a customer can view any of the product's detailed images at full size by clicking on the respective thumbnail.
