Hi, I’m puzzled by the Slide Editor’s behaviour. I’m learning to use it using some template photos provided by Slider Rev.
a) When I view the Slide Editor, I can’t see the whole working space for a laptop view. Please see screenshot below. Is there a way to get the whole view, esp when I want to see the whole background & when I use the “Play” feature in the Editor? This happens even if my Slider settings are “auto”, “full width”, or “full screen”. This is how my Editor looks like on my laptop and it’s hard to arrange layers in relation to the whole page.
My current Slider settings are as follows:
b) After I’ve turned on the “Helper Grid” lines, they appear outside the image layer, as seen below (on top of the screenshot). This makes it difficult for me to arrange new layers. Did I do something wrong?
c) When I next align my big image according to “slide based”, on the Editor the thumbnails look quite near to the big image:
But when I look at the Preview, the thumbs are far far away. Why - what is causing the extra gap & why is it not visible on the Editor? How should I arrange the thumbs so I know how far they will be in relation to the big image on the actual webpage? See:
The top thumbnail (dog) is slide-based. The lower thumbnail is grid-based.
d) When I next aligned the big image to the center, it stayed on the left edge of the Editor (see top screenshot below). Whereas when I align the image to the left, it moved closer to the center (bottom screenshot). Why is that so?
e) Lastly, if I want the thumbnails to be nearer to the big image on the phone view, do I have to use separate thumbnails and use the “Visibility” to hide the first 2 thumbnails on the laptop view? If i did not do so, when I clicked on the phone view & moved the thumbs, the laptop view also changed.
I’m new to Slider Rev. Any basic advice will be appreciated so I know how to arrange the layers properly.
