Create an overlay
There are multiple elements you can play with to create an overlay customised to your needs. The different overlay templates offer choices, but the fundamentals of working with each template are the same.
In this instance, we’ll work with the product showcase template to walk you through the different functions.
Editing text
Simply select the element you wish to work with. An edit panel will appear to the right of your screen with multiple functions
Choose your font and adjust the size, colour, and style of your text
Click the blue ‘Set & close’ button to save your edits
Add an image
Select the ‘Add images’ box and click the photo icon to upload images to use on the overlay.
Click ‘Upload image’ to access your device’s image library. Select the file (or multiple files if you wish to create a slider) and choose ‘open’
Once successfully uploaded, it will appear in the image library on your screen
When you hover your cursor over an image you’ll see a ‘+’ icon and a ‘trash’ icon. Click ‘+’ to add images to your overlay. Click ‘trash’ to remove the image from the library
Once you’ve selected your image/s, close the window via the X on the top right hand corner of the pop up
If you’re happy with the image, click ‘Set & close’
Add a button
Select ‘Add element’. An edit panel will appear to the right of your screen with multiple functions
Choose ‘Button’
Follow the prompts to customise your button. You can add text, edit the colour using the palette range or hex colour code and choose black or white text
By default, the button is the width of the text or select the ‘Full width’ toggle for a wider version
Finally, set the link URL for your button’s action. You can use an email address, phone number or URL
To save, click on “Set & close”
TIP: There are numerous elements that can be added to an overlay, offering a high level of customisation.
