Hi there,

I would like to make my 1st image on homepage take up about 3/4 of the screen regardless of the device used (you can see this in action on noths.com).

The problem is that i need the image resize depending on device..

Desktop – Around 700px height
Tablet – Around 700 (landscape) / 500 (portrait)
Phone – Around 300px (landscape) / 500 (portrait)

1) Is there any way to make image resize in this way?

Also…
When using product slider on mobile there are no indicators that show visitor a swipe is available.
I tried setting “number of items on mobile” to 1.5 so they could see there were more products but this prevent swipe from working properly.

2) Is there a way to add visual swipe indicators (like you see on desktop hover)?

Hello,

1) What element do you plan to use to add the image? Image VC element or Revolution slider and Hero Scene slider type https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-setup/#slidertype ?
If you plan to use default VC element – Image – it does not have the option to set the height of the image, height is auto depending on the width of the image.
If you plan to add that image using Revolution Slider and make it like slide bg then you’ll be able to set layers grid size https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-setup/#layers-grid-size for different devices and set even min-height.

2) What would you like to add: arrows(prev/next) or dots below the slider?

Regards

Hi Olga,

Thanks for your reply.

1) I would rather not use a slider as in the past they seem to really slow down my website. I have been using VC element but if it’s the only way? I’ll have to give slider another go.

2) Next to – Doesn’t work because when using full width on mobile it makes it too wide (so you get horizontal scroll). Ideally I would have an overlay but if that’s not possible then arrows underneath would be O.K.

Thanks.

Hello,

1) Image element does not have the option that allows you to change height depending on screen size.
Like workaround, you can use row and choose the background image. Also, set padding for your row using vh units then it will depend on screen height.

2) Add the following custom CSS to Theme Options > Custom CSS
```
@media only screen and (max-width: 768px){
.carousel-area .owl-nav {
    display: block;
}
.carousel-area .owl-nav .owl-prev {    
    top: auto;
    bottom: 0;
    left: calc(50% - 50px);
}
.carousel-area .owl-nav .owl-next {
    top: auto;
    right: calc(50% - 50px);
    bottom: 0;    
}
}
```

Hi,

1) – Thanks very much, I’ll give it a try.

2) – Unfortunately that’s not made any changes at all. I cleared my iPhone cache and tried it. I also checked at http://quirktools.com/screenfly/.

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Hello,

Please change the previous code to this one:
```
@media only screen and (max-width: 768px){
.carousel-area .owl-nav {
    display: block !important;
    margin-bottom: 40px;
}
.carousel-area .owl-nav .owl-prev {    
    top: auto;
    bottom: -20px; 
    left: calc(50% - 100px);
}
.carousel-area .owl-nav .owl-next {
    top: auto;
    right: calc(50% - 100px);
    bottom: -20px;    
}
}
```
