My test page is here (on a desktop only): [http://www.stormdesignprint.com/hrtest/](http://www.stormdesignprint.com/hrtest/)

I have an impact stack showing a full bleed photo in the background which zooms out slowly and is then static.

I want to have testimonials blending in and out on this static image but can’t remember how to do it.  
I can get the first one to blend in, but then it’s stuck there and I can’t seem to get it to seamlessly blend into the next one.  
I’m using target stacks for each testimonials so that they show up in the right place.  
I’m using ‘fade in’ as the animate state but can’t see a transition out state.  
Can anyone help?

Hi Gabrielle, you simply have to add another images inside the impact stack If there are already images for the slideshow, I am sure they are not inside the Impact stack. 🙂

Hi @jochenabitz 🙂 Yes I have one background image inside the impact stack and I only need that one photo which zooms out and then stays put. It’s the testimonials that will keep changing and they are also in the impact image slide. (see attached).

I’ve used the impact animate stack over an impact image but have never tried more than one, maybe that could work?

Yes that’s how I assume it works, if you want more than one animation over the top then you add more impact animate stacks. But it’s not working :-(. I’ll keep trying.

You can only add one animate stack per slide. You could try adding another slider stack, like maybe Cycler, but I can not guarantee that it will work.

Ah that makes sense. Ok so I’ve used the same image duplicated with each testimonial and it works fine now, thanks so much 🙂
