Would it be possible to add some more options to the background component? Such as the responsive dots. I would like to adjust the height of the slant depending on the breakpoint.

It’d also be great if we could not just adjust them vertically, but also horizontally.

Let me know what you think of that.

Maybe! I’ll chat with @ben and see what’s possible for this 👍

Hmm, maybe like a separate option/mode to switch it to a vertical split?

Would it be possible to have both available at the same time, or will that be too complicated?

I’m thinking something like this would be more than enough for 99% of people…

If that’s not going to work for your situation… you could use an SVG in the background instead to get exactly what you need?

Probably 😉 Though that wouldn’t solve the breakpoint changes. But having an option for vertical changes will be great nonetheless.

This one is trickier than it might seem. I’ll take a closer look ASAP, but can’t guarantee we’ll be able to do all these options and make them responsive. I’ll do my best though 😅
