Layers

This slider uses 4 different types of layers: there is an image layer on the top, after 2 heading layers are, then a text layer comes, and finally a button layer. Every layer is customizable, for example at the heading or text layer you can change the font family or color, you can use margins or padding and set a little shadow or a background. Actually, you can customize everything that people usually want to change. And if it isn’t enough, if you write a custom CSS there is an option to use this class at your layer.

An important part of the slider can be the button layer on the bottom which can call the visitors to take an action and click on that. With the button you can navigate them to another page. Buttons can also be important if you create a Post slider, and put the Post url variable with a Read more text on the button, and the user can go to the actual post and read it. This button layer has a green color with a small opacity, you can customize this color in the Style tab of the layer window.

The background image has a black overlay with a little opacity. This is an important setting which makes the text more legible, and the visitor can focus on the layers and not on the background.

Animations

Every slide moves with a horizontal animation at the slide switching. This animation is the main animation of the slider which you can set to vertical or fade at the Animations tab of the Slider settings.
