Is it possible to have a background image via the supersizer action and to have a showcase gallery on top of this - in my efforts so far they seem to cancel each other out and neither works properly.
thanks

Hi there I was just to start a thread about this exact problem so here it is again… The background supersizer action does not work with a showcase gallery on same page, not does it work on a page that has a HTML5 video… any help with this/ Thanks Guys!

Sounds to me like a scripting conflict.
Do you need to have the background switch between different images, or just
fill the background?

Yes, Carla - I do have an idea.
Instead of the BGSupersizer action, add your background image to the window
background in the usual way - through the Page Inspector.
Then, go to menu Page > Extended… there, create a new custom style rule
background-size
with a value of
cover
Then add another custom style rule
background-attachment
with the value of
fixed
Republish, Save, the Preview. This solution uses only CSS so there is no
scripting to conflict

Hey Ernie
ok I used your fix the background image is the same as before I used supersizer action - when I put image in background without your code - its fine but does not grab the bottom of browser like supersizer did
with your code it looks the same as without. but I am willing to let go of the need to grab bottom of window although the image view is a bit different than images on the pages with supersizer

retested regular background image without your code and your code by far fills the page much better
so I am happy thanks

Hey Carla,
You can adjust the origin position of the background image in the Pro 6
inspector - some of the image will always fall outside the browser window
because “cover” will always cover the window even when it’s not the same
shape as the window (aspect ratio). Setting the horizontal and vertical
both to “center” is usually best, but if the bottom is more important to
you, set the vertical to “bottom”. Try different settings, see if you can
at least improve the experience.
An alternative is to use the value
contain
in the CSS code in place of cover. This will fit the image completely
within the browser window – the problem is, again, aspect ratio. There
will be times when the shape of the window doesn’t match the shape of the
image, and then you will have the opposite effect that you do now… some of
the window background won’t be covered by image. You can minimize the
experience with a background color, but that’s it.

I think it is a JS conflict with the Showcase javascript even though they both use jQuery.
