Closing an overlay image

I need to display an image on entering the main home page. So far I did this by using “reveal”, which is working fine. The only problem is how to close it and display the underlying page.

Ideally I would like this by just clicking outside of the image (or by placing a closing X ).

I did try to figure it out with the “modal” component, but no success (disclaimer: I am no programmer, just an old guy trying to help out our local lapidary club with a slightly spiffed up website).

HI @Utz

Reveal won’t allow the user to dismiss the overlaid image, so you’ll want to use a Modal for this and set the “Auto Open” setting to “Page Load”.

This will show the modal content when the page loads and allow the user to manually dismiss the image.

Let us know if you need any more help setting this up :slight_smile:

Thanks Ben, I have never used modal before, so yes, I’d very much appreciate a bit more guidance..

..I think I worked it out ! Thanks again

that’s great to hear :smiley:
