Metaslider Gallery 2.32.0 gives site owners a new way to match galleries to their design: you can now choose the autoplay progress bar color instead of using the default red. This release also makes the settings area clearer, updates wording from “lightbox” to “gallery” in key places, and fixes several display issues around captions and Pro options.

Feature highlights
The headline addition is a new progress bar color setting for galleries using Autoplay. If your gallery advances automatically, you can now choose a progress indicator color that better fits your theme, brand palette, or page design.
- Custom progress bar color — When Autoplay is enabled, you can now replace the default red progress bar with a color that fits your site.

- Gallery-focused wording — Settings and UI copy have been updated from “lightbox” to “gallery” for clearer navigation.
- Rotate and Flip label — The former “Rotate” option now says “Rotate and Flip” so it matches the tools available.
- Better Free and Pro organization — Settings are more clearly grouped, with refreshed Pro tooltips that explain what each feature does.
Other changes and fixes
Version 2.32.0 also includes practical fixes that should make gallery behavior more consistent, especially for sites using captions, Pro feature toggles, or content filtering options.
- Caption display fixed — Captions now appear correctly in MetaSlider slideshows when the “Open in Gallery” button is enabled.
- Pro feature toggles fixed — Pro features can now be disabled from settings as expected.
- Content filtering corrected — Content filtering settings no longer incorrectly affect gallery display.
- Tooltip descriptions improved — Pro feature descriptions have been sharpened to better explain what each option does.
If you use autoplay galleries, the new color setting is the most visible reason to update. If your site relies on captions or carefully controlled gallery settings, the fixes in this release are also worth applying promptly.
