Got an idea for Lay Theme? I might include it in a new update or code an addon.

    html.show-project-overlay . laynav{ display: none!important; } Enter this css in "lay options" -> "custom css & html" -> "custom css for desktop" This should hide the menu when your project overlays open. I love the project overlay feature, but I sometimes want to use it only for a certain category and let the other project behave normally. It could be nice to have control over that. Yeah, this is a good idea, but I'm not sure if many people would use it.

    Thanks, Armin, I appreciate the suggestion to use an SVG for the "Close" label. That could work as a temporary solution, but it does introduce some challenges with consistency – especially in terms of sizing and alignment with the main typography, across different devices and screen sizes. A native text option would be much more flexible and scalable. Totally understand that this might not be a priority right now, but I’m glad you’ve noted it down. Looking forward to it if it ever makes it onto the roadmap! Thanks again!

    hey @arminunruh thanks a lot for your reply. I thought there is a possibility to add project titles only for a specific "Project Thumbnail Grid", within this window and not all the of them at the same time: [image: 1747228763125-screenshot-2025-05-14-at-15.17.25-resized.png] You are right that putting the text to the left or right of the "Thumbnail Grid" might be tricky as they are close to each other. That's why I wanted to target only one "Thumbnail Grid" which has only 1 column. For now I could definitely use the option you described. But it would be helpful in future to turn project titles separately for different "Project Thumbnail Grids". At least for me, I am trying to layout all my work through it, as then I can add a new project - assign the right category and it's up online without a need to add the project to the page. Thanks a lot!

    Thanks a lot, Armin! It would be really nice to have these options in the future – especially being able to set the opacity for a background color. Looking forward to it whenever you find the time!

    Hey there, a carousel for a new thumbnail is now possible. Or a video or mouseover image. I'm not sure if I have enough time at the moment to add this.

    can you try window.laytheme.on('content_ready', typeOfContentThatIsReady, $target, isProjectOverlayObj){ } typeOfContentThatIsReady will be desktop or phone $target will be any containers that include gridder grids So all javascript changes / event listeners you could have made / bound to existing elements are gone. If you bind event listeners in a delegated way to document like described here: https://laytheme.com/documentation/custom-javascript.html#binding-click-events <script> jQuery(document).on("click", ".clickme", function(event) { console.log("yay!"); }); </script> then no dom changes will alter these binds

    @abc Page Overlays, you can activate them in 'lay options' > 'lay options' and then there will be settings at the bottom right in the page editor next to the grid.

    will be fixed with the next update!

I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.
