  Hi Hitesh Gohel,
  
  You can map GalleryLightboxList.ascx tempalte and modify it. You could add some controls to the template then use them in a custom contorol that derives from ImageGallery, but you cannot change the actual LightBox.

  Hi Ivan,

  
  

  I did not find the GalleryLightboxList.ascx template in either of the external template files you indicated.  I would like to modify the Image Gallery template which uses Lightbox in version 3.7.

  
  

  Please advise.  Thanks.

  -Ivan

  Hi Ivan,
  
  Take a look at  [ExternalTemplates.zip]\Sitefinity\Admin\ControlTemplates\Libraries\Modes. The template is located there.

  Hi Ivan,

  
  

  I'm looking at the template but I'm not sure how I would narrow the spacing between multiple rows when I use this template.  For example if I have 10 pictures and they display 5 on top of 5 how do I narrow the spacing between those 2 rows.  It's seems pretty wide.  Is it a css change?

  
  

  Thanks.

  -Ivan

  Hello Ivan,
  
  You can use css to do this. You can change the width and height of the
   ol.sf_photoListLightbox li dd.sf_image and ol.sf_photoListLightbox li

  Hi Ivan,

  
  

  I think these values are in the embedded file as indicated by this reference in the control template: 

  
  

  <telerik:CssFileLink ID="CssFileLink1" FileName=""

   Media="screen" runat="server" EmbeddedFileName="Telerik.Libraries.Resources.ControlTemplates.Frontend.librariesCommonLayout.css"  />

  
  

  This embedded file always seems to get loaded last in the css hierarchy so I can't override the values you recommended.  Do I need to make a local copy of this file and change the EmbeddedFileName attribute to the FileName attribute?

  
  

  Thanks.

  -Ivan

  Would it be possible to have the exact syntax for the entry needed in Telerik.Sitefinity.Configuration.ControlsConfig.xml to use GalleryLightboxList.ascx as an external template - I cannot find anywhere in the doco that lists these - Telerik.Sitefinity.Configuration.ControlsConfig.xml has nothing in it!
  
  Thanks,
  
  Stuart

  Hello Stuart Radlett,
  
  You have to map this template from control edit mode - under advanced tab there is a section "Tempaltes" where you will find a property ItemListTemplatePath that you can use. Another option is using the control designer - Working with presentation modes
