Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about Color Sorting.
FooGallery’s color sorting feature extracts dominant colors from gallery images and sorts according to this. You can use this to create a striking gallery, or when a visual collection needs to be browsed by dominant color rather than only by title, date, or manual order.
This feature is included in FooGallery PRO Starter. You can compare plans before choosing a license to find the best fit for your needs.
Once you’ve extracted the dominant color from your images, you can use this to sort your gallery, add the dominant color as a border (either opaque or tinted) and add a background color to the lightbox when viewing images. You can find out more about this in our color sorting document.
