Carousel Addon / Image Size Portrait or Landscapeformat

[neon]

Hello dear Armin,

I just bought your carousel addon.
Looks super great!! Exactly I was looking for. Thanks.

But i was wondering, how it's possible to
show all images of a slideshow - some are in portrait & some in landscapeformat,
in the exact pixelsize like 400 x 800 or 800 x 400px.

If I start the slideshow with a portraitformat,
the landscapeformats are only 400px wide, not 800.

Is there anything I can do, to fix this?

Also for the fonts, I want it to work the site on all devices.
So for this, what can you recommend: Px oder %.

Thanks for your help,
Stef

Hey stef!
EDIT:
With the latest version of carousel, you can use the custom aspect ratio option when you add a carousel. Using your custom aspect ratio can make sure, that all images fit inside well.

Hm with fonts you need to try out what works best for you. You can use textformats and use different font sizes for mobile and for desktop. I think using px is fine unless you want to use huge font sizes.

Thanks for your help!!

With textformat - for different font sizes for every device - you mean
it has to be changed in css, right?

Another question concerning fonts:
I' mixing projects and single images on the front page.
Is it possible that project captions and single image captions do look the same?

All the Projects, captions are hiding / and appear with a mouseover,
Is the same possible with single images???

Thanks in advance!

Hey dear forum,
I think my question wasn't so clear... what I wanted to know is,
is it possible to do a mouseovereffect for the caption of single images ?
I researched the whole day but, didn't find a proper solution.
I'm so close to finishing the website ;-)
Thanks in advance for any hint,
Stef

Hey stef!
About your first question about the carousel. Right now I'm working on an update for the carousel. You will be able to set a custom aspect ratio for a carousel so it isn't always the same size as it's first image.

With textformat - for different font sizes for every device - you mean
it has to be changed in css, right?

I just meant that with textformats you can set a fontsize for desktop and for mobile. Look at the first screenshot here: http://laytheme.com/how-to-use.html#textformats
You have "mobile font size" etc. Those attributes are in effect, when your layout becomes the phone layout and everything is stacked.

is it possible to do a mouseovereffect for the caption of single images ?

Yeah, I want to add that as a Customizer option one day. Right now you can do it like this:

.img .caption{
    opacity: 0;
    transition: opacity 300ms ease;
    -webkit-transition: opacity 300ms ease;
}

.img:hover .caption{
    opacity: 1;
}

By the way if you have multiple questions it's good to open a new topic for each question, then it's easier to find for other people :D

I guess I should put that in custom css? If so, it doesnt seem to work.
@neon
could you solve the problem?
