Instruction manual or how control object positioning in slider?

This topic has been marked as resolved.

Hi, TB,

1. Maybe you can write some short instruction manual how to use slider or you can answer to few questions? I understand how I can create it, but my way is very long. Why? For example I use in slider good feature – Layer>Styles>Position> …Top, Left, Bottom and Right. With them I can put my text or image where I want, but … if I want use few Layers in one row (example – TEXT1, TEXT2, TEXT3, … or image to) I have one problem.
Before describing the problem I want explain why I some time need text in one row. See at the image “01-example.jpg”. There you can see TEXT and different delay times. When user come to website they first see text TEXT1. After delay 1000 TEXT-VERY-LONG2, etc. I don’t want all text write to one row ant it start in one time. I hope you understand what I mean.
Problem.
When I create Layer1 ant there is the TEXT1 I can position them in place where I want. For example Left side and Bottom 40 px. There is no problem. When I create second, Layer2 with text TEXT-VERY-LONG2, I can put them to Bottom, for example 40 px, but when I want place this text in some row, after TEXT1 (example: “TEXT1” …. here 40 px space …. “TEXT-VERY-LONG2”) I don’t know how many px I must write in Left tab (Layer2>Styles>Position>Left “tab for pixels”. Firs I writing around, for example 200 px. After save I see on website where is my the next one text from Layer2. If they are on the top of the first text or too very far right I writing another number, for example 190, 180, etc. I can’t calculate from desktop. If I writing to the tab some number, for example 40px on desktop I see another number, for example 70. I think that is because design is responsive.
Can you advice how I can control object’s positioning in fire slider?

2. How I can sort Slides in Slider?
For example when I create first slide “Slide 1″ and after “Slide 2″, on website Slide 1 always will be first. That is normal. But if I want change sorting, I tried drag and drop “Slide 1″ to the bottom “Slide 2″. After save nothing change. I know how to cheat. Slide1 I dublicate. This slide become Slide3. After that I delate Slide1 and I have good result. Is this right the way?

3. How to do that interval between Slide1 and Slide2 I can control?
Now after the last Layer in Slide1, Slide2 starting immediately. I would like I can control time for each Slide. It can be same. For example Slide1 users can see 15 seconds, Slide2 also 15 sec. Now, Slide2 starting immediately after Slide1.

Best regards!

Hi,

We are sorry we were not able to help you in time. In fact our entire support service has been missing for the last 30 days due to company issues. For a very short period we’ve left without any staff to handle requests and it took us some time to resolve this problem. We’ve now managed to restore our service and support will be provided on a normal schedule.

Now about your problems:

1) The best way to put correct dimensions (top, left, right, bottom or width) is to use a resolution, where the slider will show without scaling. E.g. if you create a slider of with size of 1000×500 pixels, the container where it is shown in should be that size too. There all layers will be sized normally and it will be easy to take exact dimensions of each one. Once your slider is up or down scaled, all layers are resized proportionally.

2) The bug when sorting slides is confirmed and we will provide fix ASAP.

3) Time between slides can be set from slideshow settings:

Hi,

We’ve prepared a patch for your reorder problem. You need to extract the attached archive in your store’s root folder and then re-save sliders.

Hi,

About question Nr. 1. I tried do how you say and all is OK if I use images. But i I use text result is not the same like with images. Wit the text I can’t move text to exact position. If I chose default text size, position from the TOP, LEFT, RIGHT or BOTTOM will be in one part on the banner. If I chose some size (20px, 30px, …) this position will be all the time in different part. You can look at the image “test.jpg”.

There you can see dimensions white images and where they must be from the top, left, bottom and right. All is OK. Text size you can see too. Positioning too, but at this time from the top and right text is 13 px. Must be TOP 20px, RIGHT 10px.

What I do wrong?

Thanks!

Hi,

You do nothing wrong. The problem here is that text is not an image – it has line height, letter spacing and is not treated like a layer in Photoshop where it has exact dimensions. You can put a background to the text container and you will see it positions correctly.
