lightbox2(images)

Change thumbnail size.

Change thumbnail alignment.

lightbox2(images, thumbnailHeight = "50px", thumbnailWidth = "auto", thumbnailAlign = "left")

Make it so we get a scroll bar by adjusting thumbnail height and max height of the widget.

lightbox2(images, thumbnailHeight = "200px", thumbnailWidth = "auto", maxHeight = "200px")

Adjust the size of the overall widget.

lightbox2(images, width = "50%")

Don’t center within the page.

lightbox2(images, width = "50%", margin = "none")
