Tried naming items - on preview it disappears (safari)

What is the recommended size? Height? 400px 500px 600px 700px?

I am trying to show book covers and CDs - the cd edges are cut off

I was doing 325 px tall and cds were 225 px wide - they of course get blurred out in larger screens - played with height sizing - would only give me the titles of the books/cds

Looks good can you add links to covers?

I wasn’t able to add links - but perhaps I don’t understand how it works…

Seems like you drop the image folder and that’s it…

Unless you insert containers for each drop zone (haven’t tried it)

Strange on my iPhone 📱

Doesn’t work…

Must be ad blocking it…

For now - going to change the CD covers to 500 px height for better looking - non blurry images

Don’t know why I didn’t think of this sooner

One size for all…

Make the book covers one size

Then

In that same book cover size - center the cd cover with extra white space above and below…

- sometimes things just come to you….

If you are loading images from a FOLDER, there does not appear to be a way of doing this, but it is very doable if you are creating the items individually. I just did this on two of my sites.

I put each item inside a container and have it handle the hover and link. I then set up the marquee to PAUSE when hovered over, you can then click on an item to go to the associated link. Works really nicely.

Does each container then have an image also?

Now that I understand how it works…

I really like marquee

Was able to take out intro videos and video banners  
And let the content speak for itself…

Very sharp.

glad you figured it out 😃

You might be able to simplify this further by removing the wrapping Container and just having an Image. You can set the link directly on the Image component — that way you have fewer components on the page, meaning the final output will be cleaner 🙂

oh also, FYI: I just updated Marquee Pro so that Visible Items is now fully responsive, meaning you can choose how many items appear on each device.

Just head over to the Elements Store to [update Marquee Pro](elementsapp://storeProduct/com.elementsplatform.marqueepack).

@ben The update wiped out all items - Made it a global and all are missing now

Hi @MichaelDroste @engrafiker does this happen if you restart Elements? Do the dropzone items re-appear?

We have several threads running here:) I quit Elements, restarted the computer and tried it in a other project. same issue. Dropzones not showing up. Only a blue line.
