So if you are reading this it means you bought the Unite Revolution Slider and now the fun begins. After you install the component and module and make your first slider now you can start editing your slides. This portion of the component is packed with features for full customization. So lets start breaking it down:
- 1. Transition - this is prety straight forwad the transition is refering to the global transition of this specific slide.
- 2. Slot Amount - some transitions use slots to make the effect happen, slots mean how many portions the slide will break into when the transition takes place.
- 3. Transition Duration - this field is refering to the amount of time you want the transition to take.
- 4. Links - You can enable a link for the whole slide. Any click on the slide will activate the link so this option is not good for slides with buttons.
- 5. Thumbnail - We actually generate an automated thumbnail for you but if you want it to be diffrent than a smaller view of your large image you can use this to override the automated thumbnail generation. Take in mind if you want this option to work you need to turn it on in the slider configuration.
- 6. Change Image - This button will open a dialog which allows you to choose a background image for your slider. If you are using full width and you want a solid color you should just make a 10X10 pixel solid color of the required color.
- 7. Add Layers - You can add any type of layer (yeah its really cool i know).
- 8. Layer Properties - If you selected a text layer you can change the text here and also the style. This is the place to add a button if you want as well. To override the css you have a quick CSS edit button. So you should be good to go!
- 9. Animation Easing and Speed - These fields all refer to the specific layer animation. Animation is the effect the layer will come in and out with. Easing is also a parameter for the effect if you dont know what it means you should just try it out, i personally really like ease out back. Recommended speed is 900 for animations other than fade. So start playing!
- 10. X and Y Position - To place your layer you can use drag and drop but if you want you can also enter in X an Y simaller to absolute positioning.
- 11. Layer Sorting By Depth - in the layer sorting panel you see all your slides layers. If you want to select a layer and edit its properties you can click on it here and the properties will show on the left. The depth field is refering to Z-Index.
- 12. By Time - This is actually your timeline. You can edit this field to make layers appear in a diffrent oreder or simultaneously.
