    Hello @arminunruh,

    Thank you very much for this feature, works great.

    I have two questions, first is it possible to choose text instead of an icon? Let's say I call the overlay with a link "Read" on a grid and want to "Close" it with text too?

    Second question concerns the z-index of the overlay, is it possible the overlay not to cover the site title/menu?

    Thanks!

      Hi! Yes, I would also appreciate the possibility of using the text instead of the image. Also, regarding the image: Would be nice to set the size and padding in %, not only in px.

              @arminunruh thanks again!

              One last question, is there any way through code to use the "x-close" icon on the mobile version and the text setting on desktop?

                  @arminunruh thanks for the css.

                  .laynav.desktop-nav{
                  z-index: 200;
                  }
                  .sitetitle{
                  z-index: 200;
                  }
                  

                  But now I have the menu and sitetitle hover the intro feature. How can I create an exception for the intro page?

                    Hi there!
                    I am looking for an entry about the burger button as text. Right now it only can be an image, right? Or is there an option for text? :-D

                    All best
                    Aleks

                      you could create a menu that has one link in it:

                      in lay options, choose menus amount: 2

                      then in appearance → menus,
                      create the menu and add the page that is your overlay.
                      now in customize → menus change the position etc of your menu
