For Parallax to work well, your background image must be on Repeat, or be at least 300px taller than the slider’s height to allow for scrolling. Layers Pro adds a Parallax option that allows your background image to stay in place while the site is scrolled. Toggle Darken to add a dark overlay, best used with images that have high contrast so your text shows up better.Toggle the Stretch option if you would like your image to responsively size itself to the viewport width (recommended).Under Background Position, choose how to align the image (centered by default).Under Background Repeat, choose whether to center the image, tile it, repeat it only horizontally, or repeat it only vertically.Background images should be at least 1900px wide and as tall as your slider for best results.

Slider NavigationĬheck this option if you want the left and right slider arrows to show when the mouse hovers over the slide. If your widget only has one slide, this option is ignored.Īrrows are best if you want your visitors to be able to click back and fourth on their own. If using the Boxed or Full Width layouts, you may also adjust the margins, which controls the space around the slider. You may use the Padding fields to adjust the padding inside the slide and outside the content, if desired. Consider using the Full Screen slider layout instead. Note: When using the Full Width Layout and setting a Slider Height of more than about 720 pixels, you will be forcing visitors with smaller screens to scroll to view the entire slider.
