How do I close the screen where I am viewing an album?

Raghu Hegde 12 years ago updated by Cheehan Tee 12 years ago 1
I clicked on a photo from an album, I viewed a few photos, now I want to close the section and go back to the map. here I did find it a bit difficult to figure out what closes this screen. I was expecting to see a X mark somewhere on the top right or top left cornor and I couldnt find it. I was about to reload the page in the browser, when I saw [back to story] link. Since I am a new user and not very frequent to visit the website,I didnt know whether clicking this link would achieve my purpose. I am more inclined to look for X mark at the top of the story display because I can see the map behind it and the story looks to me like a thing overlapping the map. May be a X mark would be a more intutive option than [back to story] link. I havent had much time to do stuff on roam7, sorry about that. Will try and give in my comments as I can.

We hear you, Raghu. The issue is that the photo looks like it's a modal (aka lightbox) over the map when in reality it's actually a page by itself. So that's why there isn't a "close" button. We will redesign the page to remove this confusion.

adding to the above, see the screenshot below. The background is a map. I came to the screen by clicking on a photo in an album. I cannot make much sense of it. The map is definetly not readable here. So, if i really wanted to see the map behind, the most intuitive thing would be to close the story/photo in the foreground. But, i cannot find a close. At this point, somehow I feel that clicking on back to story might display me the map? but rightly, it doesn't. It goes back to the story.
