Viewing Floating a 'Full Width' photo overtop a 'Full Width' 'background' photo?

Floating a 'Full Width' photo overtop a 'Full Width' 'background' photo?



User: Ben L. 9 years ago
In my Master Page I created my Full Width background photo. I made a header and navigation widget.

In my individual pages I see I can add a full width shape, or full width text box, and when I scroll down the picture in the background stays the same and all the shapes / text boxes move together. Is there a way I can create a full width 'photo' (or cropped full-width photo so it has more a cinematic 'wide screen' look) that floats overtop the background photo on the Master Page? So it performs the same as the 'shape' or the 'text'?

When I try to mess with a photo full width on an individual page (not a Master Page), Everweb compresses or flattens (distorts) the format of the photo. I tried 'dropping' a photo into a shape or a text box, nada; it just sits on top. I also tried Command pulling the photo beyond the 'Page Background'. Nope.

I see sites that do this ... have the 'floating' full width photo. So I'm thinking EverWeb can do it ...

All ears,

Ben

If you look at the Full Width widgets you will see that they use the Full Width control but have a maximum width setting to stop the item's size getting out of control at wide browser settings. This allows the item to be wider than the content area and centered at a reasonable width.

Images can be either inserted as a background with responsive width and fixed height or in an <img> tag with both responsive width and height.

The Responsive Width Image widgets allow the user to create a responsive width image with either fixed or responsive height. They use an HTML5 figure element to allow an optional, centered and styled caption using the figcaption element.

Dang. Wrote you a whole enthusiastic reply, but made the mistake of clicking Best Answer before posting, and poof, lost my reply. Thank you Roddy. I'm off to get a couple of your widgets. I hope I'm not making my sites too complicated for the search engines ... but I am reading your articles on the subject. I'm a filmmaker, not a web designer ... about to launch a number of recently completed films ... and wanting to have the sites look a bit more up-tempo and modern, without making them too complicated to manage. All the best ... Ben

You can do the same kind of thing with video - responsive width and height and background layer with fixed height.
