Image Dimensions in Rise
Hello
I've just started using Rise and I have some questions. Is there place that tells me the image dimensions (ie: Image and Text, Image size for the accordion, etc.). My client thinks the f...
Dorothy,
When using the "Text on Image" block type, the image is cropped automatically (responsively) based on the user's device type. In other words, the developer cannot predict or control exactly which portion of the image the user will see. That makes this block type a little bit tricky to use, especially because you won't know how the text will overlay on different elements in the image. For example, if there are any white elements in the image, your white text might end up over top of those elements for some users, making it illegible. (You can remedy that problem by darkening the overlay.)
With this block type, the image is really meant to be used more as a background than as a way to convey information, so you would want to choose an image that can be auto-cropped in unpredictable ways and still be functional. Or just do a lot of testing with different screen sizes.
Hope that helps!
