How? Stay with me till the end and we will figure it out.
Once the slides are generated, toggle to the slides section on the left side panel. Once you head to it, you will see 5 different fields which include subtitle, title, description, background image and swipe arrow settings.
Content Settings
Subtitle: Using the subtitle section, you can modify the text and replace it with the text you want to highlight as a subtitle. If you don’t need any subtitles you can leave it empty.
You can even make the changes in the title, and description, add a background image as per your choice, set its opacity, and do much more. The core purpose of adding a background image is to elevate the carousel with some visuals. It's believed that strong visuals act as a magnet and catch the visitor's attention. You can put some graphs, gradients, textures, or anything that supports or uplifts your content.
Inside the image, you can also select which part you want to highlight.
Arrow Settings
Next comes the Swipe arrow settings. Once you click on it, you will see two tabs.
- Text and arrow
- Arrow Let’s understand text and arrow
1. Text and arrow
When you click on the text and arrow, you will see two inputs. Intro swipe arrow and slide swipe arrow. So whatever the text you will write in the Intro swipe arrow, it will appear in the intro slide with an arrow. Same way whatever text you write in the Slide swipe arrow will appear in the other slides.
2. Arrow
If you click on the arrow you will see different arrows to choose from.
Background Settings
Then comes the third section which is “Background”. In the background, you will see 5 fields which include background pattern, pattern opacity, background design, design opacity, and design layout. Once you click on the background pattern, it will open a dropdown with different patterns. You can select any one and it will be immediately reflected. Here I have selected abstract lines and you can see the effect.
You can change the pattern opacity from the pattern opacity section.
To make your background even better, we have the background design option. Here you can simply select from different shapes and give your carousel a unique appearance. As you can see here I have selected arrows and immediately the arrows were added to my carousel
Just like pattern opacity, you can even adjust the design opacity.
Fonts Settings
Every font is not for everyone. Every design has its own need for fonts. So to help you choose your favorite fonts we even have a fonts section. By clicking on fonts you will see 4 fields: Use custom fonts, font pair, text size, and text alignment.
When you click on a font pair, it will open a dropdown with different font pairs. You can choose from any, adjust its size using text size, and set its alignment.
If you want to give your fonts a custom look, mark the checkbox above-named custom fonts and it will add 2 more fields named primary font and secondary font.
Color palette settings
Next comes the colors section. Here you can select any color palette and give your carousel a whole new look.
If you want to create your own combination of colors, you can mark the checkbox named custom color and it will give you 3 additional fields background, text, and secondary. You can add the color code there or give the name of the color you want for each field and it will immediately reflect the same.
Branding Settings
Next comes the branding section. Here you will see the name, handle profile picture, and 3 additional checkboxes. Personalize it with your name, handle, and picture and you are almost done.
General Settings
Last comes the settings section. Here you will see 3 checkboxes: show watermark, hide intro slide, and hide outro slide. Mark the watermark section to show the watermark or uncheck it to hide the watermark. On marking hide intro slide the intro slide will be hidden and vice versa.
