Hey,

I’m trying to change the background overlay on a banner image to change on md & up. It’s not working. Can anybody confirm that?

@dan, that on your radar?

Hi @pumpkin

I was just trying to follow your description to see if I can confirm. But it is not totally clear to me what you are trying.

For the Background Overlay there are no options to make them responsive. Was this what you mean?

Not a bug, we just don’t support changing colours (or colour opacity) at different breakpoints.

Yes, that was exactly what I meant. I need to increase the opacity on the white overlay on mobile so the black text stays readable. It’s fine on md and up, but on mobile the background is rather dark. It’d help if I could change the text color to white on mobile, but then it stays white on all breakpoints too. Not useful.

Wonder why it’s not supported. Is that something that’s going to be supported eventually?

New user here. I signed up just to suggest this feature and found this old post. Are there plans to support this soon?? Most settings have the breakpoint dot but not backgrounds which is surprising. Being able to adjust background position, as well as background overlay color/opacity is vital for mobile screens!
