P: the caption appears on the upper left side and the font size is very large

I just signed up the Photography Plan subscription.  To try out the sharing features in LRWeb, I created an album, added to a galley, and created a sharable link to the gallery. The photos display on the web quite nicely. In the "normal" display mode, the caption for each individual image shows up at the lower left corner, with or without the Info panel on the right. However, when switching to the slideshow or full-screen mode, the caption appears on the upper left side and the font size is very large.  It is unappealing and somewhat disrupting the image itself. If the caption is longer with many words, it runs across the image. So my question is: For the slideshow and the full screen display mode, is it possible to change the font size or even turn off the caption?

No, I don't believe it's possible to do either of those things. Perhaps a moderator could turn this into a feature request?

Thanks! Personally I think it is a much better way for viewers to see the photos in the slideshow or full screen mode (with auto-advancing or navigation arrows on either side), but the captions in large fonts overlaying across the top kind of ruin the image. Please add the ability to let us change the font size (e.g. small, medium, or large) or even turn off the caption in slideshow mode.  Google Photos does not show captions in the slideshow mode.

Depending on the goal, consider using Portfolio, it is free with your Lr subscription and has much better control over the presentation side.

Although, I have not explored the access control side Portfolio.

Thanks Tim! I've looked into Portfolio. I know that in Portfolio you can enable or disable the right-click to control access. It does not have the download capability as in LRWeb. My preference is to have the ability for family members and friends to download the entire album into a zip file.
