Use Merchandise Section as a Virtual Casket Show Room

We have been brainstorming how to show caskets during in-person arrangements. Right now we use binders with printed pictures, which is ok. We have a computer in the arrangement room that uses a large tv as a monitor and we want to be able to show caskets on the screen, but I haven't found any great company or software that offers a user-friendly way to do this. I was hoping we could use the Merchandise part of the Planning Center as a way for families to browse and select caskets from our arrangement room, but in testing it out, it's also not very user friendly. It might be nice if, when you click on "View Details" a new window opens with the details of that casket along with an option to pin it if you like it and then close the window and return to the rest of the casket selections, right where you left off. That way you don't lose your spot as you're browsing. As it is now, when you click on "View Details" it opens in the same window, but then when you click on "Back to Caskets" or hit the browser back button, it takes you to the pinned selections, and you lose your place where you were browsing previously. I hope that makes sense. I think this could be a really great option for merchandising in a funeral home, it just needs a few tweaks. Thanks for listening!
