    Dear R @no_caller_id Best wishes, hope you had a nice holiday season šŸŒ Regarding the space at bottom on Safari IOS, I believe Armin is aware of this along with a few other users with similar bug, so should be worked out soon. "causes all captions to add one empty line below the text, resulting in the text not sitting on the bottom." [image: 1641339125423-screen-shot-2022-01-05-at-12.29.23-pm-resized.png] The Single line captions you have sit higher - Should the two line comments on Mobile also sit higher? Have a wonderful start to 2022 ✨ Richard

    Dear @wardh Likely the solution was just to specify the exact col to target with CSS so instead of all col (columns) targeted just the center. Or something like all first children of the parent row are not targeted (therefore all left-side elements are not targeted ) šŸŒ Best wishes and a happy 2022 Richard

    Dear Marc @Marc-Sowell If not exactly the same Lay Theme can create something very similar. If you find your design is not possible a refund can be discussed šŸŒ Please take a look at the Element Grid too: https://laytheme.com/documentation.html#elementgrid Best wishes & have a wonderful 2022 Richard

    Dear @jr Unsure of your setup but if this works for you: Below you can see the Carousel with the number's element and a margin-left applied to it: [image: 1641265016179-screen-shot-2022-01-04-at-3.53.47-pm-resized.png] You could change the amount of margin-left to push it way outside it's container: [image: 1641265092467-screen-shot-2022-01-04-at-3.54.12-pm-resized.png] If you have content to the left of your Carousel this may not work for you as it will push it. Need to test. Example Code: .lay-carousel-sink-parent .numbers { margin-left: -100px !important; } This can be added via > Customize > CSS or > Lay Options > Custom CSS & HTML > Custom CSS (NOTE: the number settings within Carousel settings should be set to "below" and "left" to suit the above code) Hope this helps JR & best wishes for 2022! 🌻 Richard

    Dear Marius @mari133 Is this % reference for images or text? In general the % is being calculated by the parent container of said element. So if i have a parent container that is 700px wide and the child container is 70% wide - The child container will calculate 70% of 700px. You can see here: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_units.asp % is defined as the percentage "Relative to the parent element" Hope this helps Marius and best wishes for 2022! 🌻 Richard

    Dear @cdc84 Even though this is how to add an Image on hover, i believe the same logic applies to display text. http://laythemeforum.com:4567/topic/6087/imagehover-on-element-grid-lightbox-on-carousel/2 Hope this helps and best wishes for 2022 ✨ Richard
  • Portrait Format Videos Getting Cropped To Landscape

    Dear Jacob @jbenfield96 Thanks for the update, there is something going on with the videos themselves. Testing: I uploaded one of your mp4's into a page and had the same issue. The dimensions 576ā€ŠĆ—ā€Š720 are cropped to a 1080 x 720 aspect ratio , the cropping to landscape occurs. [image: 1641183236727-screen-shot-2022-01-03-at-5.00.28-pm-resized.png] Then i added a random portrait video to see if it was a Lay Theme BUG, portrait dimensions are maintained: [image: 1641183383218-screen-shot-2022-01-03-at-5.16.03-pm-resized.png] Then i wondered if the video falls under a certain "portrait" dimension does it get changed to Landscape? Like your video, if its portrait but not true portrait and somewhere in the middle is that causing the issue? Turns out no. I used an online video resizer to change the dimensions to the exact same as yours to test - 576ā€ŠĆ—ā€Š720 : [image: 1641183607350-screen-shot-2022-01-03-at-5.19.17-pm-resized.png] You can see the video is given the correct dimensions. Even though your Beastwang videos look Portrait, the Media Library believes the dimensions are 1080 x 720 ( even in my Lay Theme, so it's not a lay theme bug then ). [image: 1641183815400-screen-shot-2022-01-03-at-5.21.42-pm-resized.png] If i change the dimensions of your video in a simple video resizer to the correct 576 x 720 - The Media library now sees this correctly and it is maintained on the front-end: [image: 1641184015416-screen-shot-2022-01-03-at-5.25.30-pm-resized.png] Conclusion: Within your videos are some encoding, unsure what exactly that is giving this 1080 x 720 aspect ratio, resizing the video's solves the issue or look into how the video's where exported from whatever programs you are using (taken directly from instagram?). Hope this helps Jacob and best wishes for 2022! šŸŒ Richard

    Hej @Richard, Thank you so much for all your support over the last days! :) I'm so sorry, but that's not what I meant. If you compare my "normal" project without Cover https://fabiandraxl.com/kia-wintercampain/ with the one where I i activated the Cover future you could see the the cover cuts of the image from Row two and I want to know how to fix that? Taaank you!

    Dear @giselach Having the Parent and Child elements visible all the time. Does the following suit your needs? A Sub-menu Sub-menu style set to "Click" in > Customize > Sub-menu > Following code added into > Lay Options > Custom CSS & HTML > Custom <Head> Content : <script> window.laytheme.on("newpageshown", function(layoutObj, type, obj){ jQuery(".menu-item-has-children").addClass("show-submenu-desktop"); }); </script> Result (Sub-menu appears open) [image: 1639956664374-screen-shot-2021-12-20-at-12.26.52-pm-resized.png] Hope this helps @giselach & best wishes 🌻 Richard
