Media

Use Box and Slider to present your media content in a cool way.

Media components include things that have to do with large media objects like Images, Video, Audio, etc.

Material Box

Material box is a material design implementation of the Lightbox plugin. When a user clicks on an image that can be enlarged, Material box centers the image and enlarges it in a smooth, non-jarring manner. To dismiss the image, the user can either click on the image again, scroll away, or press the ESC key.

Material Box sample image

Creating the above image with the effect is as simple as adding a materialboxed class to the image tag.


<img class="materialboxed" width="650" alt="Material Box sample image" src="images/sample-1.jpg">
      

Initialization


  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    var elems = document.querySelectorAll('.materialboxed');
    var instances = M.Materialbox.init(elems, {
      // specify options here
    });
  });

onCloseStart Function null Callback function called before materialbox is closed.

All the methods are called on the plugin instance. You can get the plugin instance like this:


    var instance = M.Materialbox.getInstance(elem);
          
.open();

Open materialbox


  instance.open();
        
.close();

Close materialbox


  instance.close();
        
.destroy();

Destroy plugin instance and teardown


  instance.destroy();

Captions

It is very easy to add a short caption to your photo. Just add the caption as a data-caption attribute.

Slider

Our slider is a simple and elegant image carousel. You can also have captions that will be transitioned on their own depending on their alignment. You can also have indicators that show up on the bottom of the slider.
