Hi Colin @colin.irwin , thank you i've tried your suggestions and it does look alot better. 250px x 61 px is the the size.
although it still shows 1px of the tiling.
I've tried increments of the px like 250.1 , 250.2 or 61.2 , 60.9 and i cant get rid of the slight tile that remains.
the button image is wall to wall covered so no transparency exists at the edges also.

When i do a straight hover (without preloading) i dont have the issue, its when i preload, this tiling effect happens, if that info helps.

Cheers.

Any idea how to stop the tiling or mask it better?
new result, better but with a slight tile regardless of px inputs.

Custom button creator:

Be awesome if squarespace had a custom button creator. Pick your "before" hover and "after" hover image. Modifiers could be added like hover effects (scale up, fade, particle effects etc). The button you create would be stored and ready to use anywhere on your website.
These things can be coded with css but i'm yet to find a working way to preload my hover img into a button, so there isn't a loading flash before changing to the hover img first time you visit the website.
Also just easier for the casual consumer if it was a block you could add and modify rather than writing css code for each button you create.

Issue I had originally here, seems the code is a bit messy but its so close:

Hey @MAC1 - I'm glad Colin was able to help, but I think your code is way more complicated than it needs to be! I'll share some custom button concepts when I write up the AMA answers later this week; stay tuned & feel free to ask me any other CSS questions you'd like an answer to 🙂

Hi @inside_the_square - Thank you for looking at this and look forward to the custom button concepts! haha Yes ive done alot of copy pasting code im sure there is conflicting values and confusing code, not much of a coder here. The preloading was important since just hover code was making the button flash before bringing in the other button img. Solving this issue will have my website almost finished, cheers appreciate it!
I may have 1 or 2 other CSS questions on other parts of the website. Should I message them in here?

Preloading a hover custom hover button so it doesn't flash in, nearly got it working with 1 issue to figure out.

Hi Becca @inside_the_square, i've learnt alot from your videos, thankyou!

I've been scouting all day and found a solution that is almost there. I had issues with my hover custom button flashing before changing which was jarring design wise. I fixed the flashing issue with preload code that works, but now the hover tiles and repeats itself.

This code below preloads the button image so it doesn't flash when changing to the image. but it repeats the hover image multiple times.

before hover:

When you hover on button:

Can you see the issue with the code to fix this issue?

/* Default styles for the centered div */
div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1701422267607_2792 {
    width: 250px;
    height: 250px;
    overflow: hidden;
    margin: auto; /* Center horizontally */
    position: relative; /* Use relative positioning */
    top: 50%;
    transform: translateY(-50%);
}

/* Media query for window width of 1200px */
@media (min-width: 1200px) {
    div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1701422267607_2792 {
        width: 280px;
    }
}

/* Preload hover effect */

    background-size: contain; /* Ensure the image fits within the container without distortion */
    background-position: center; /* Center the image */

I got this code to work, hope it helps someone. Keeps the button image (no rescaling) at 250px at every screen width and also pumps it up to 280px at a window size bigger than 1200px :)

div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1701485718961_2891 {
    width: 250px;
    height: 250px;
    overflow: hidden;
    margin: auto; 
    position: relative; 
    top: 50%;
    transform: translateY(-50%);
}

/* Media query for window width of 1200px */
@media (min-width: 1200px) {
    div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1701485718961_2891 {
        width: 280px;
    }

Hi,

I have a issue with my custom buttons.

The button becomes too small on different widths:
Large monitor looks fine, button is full size

On a smaller monitor the image scales down too much, I want to keep it at 100% the whole time
(like how buttons in squarespace behave):

Is it how i've set it up? can i add css that keeps the button at a suitable size?

Here is the button code at the moment, the hover works and the animated scaling also:

/* GET IN TOUCH BUTTON*/
div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1701485718961_2891 {
    overflow: hidden;
    position: relative;
}

div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1701485718961_2891 img {
    transition: transform 0.5s ease, opacity 1s ease;

    display: block;
    width: 100%;
    height: auto;
}

div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1701485718961_2891:hover img {
    transform: scale(1.05);
opacity: 1;

I have a awards section that looks great on desktop at its smallest width, still readable and spaced nice.

But on mobile phones it looks like this, which is too small and the spacing is too much.

How can I control the size and spacing of the award pictures when it gets to mobile, so that its not tiny. Maybe restrict it to a certain percentage?

Cheers,

Here is the code the section is using

Hi,
I'm trying to have universal code on all my line padding. Except for the footer line. The footer line block is #block-yui_3_17_2_1_1691745460420_38410.

I've tried a bunch of code variations to no avail.
The "body:not" code is resetting all the lines not just the the footer line like i would like. Something is wrong with the code.
Need some help to learn the right way to exclude elements when universal code is applied.

Cheers

Hi, thanks for your time. Yes I've tried the section height min to L and manual vh. That fixes the issue, but has too much spacing top and bottom design wise.

I'd like to keep the small spacing at full screen and then when the width is smaller like this:

I'd like the spacing to be dynamic and center the contact form like this:

So some sort of dynamic spacing css code when the window is a certain width?

Hi,

pass: 04

I have a issue on my contact page. The background image is a full bleed background. But at certain px width it will crop the bottom moon in the image with a grey bar instead:

Bigger size full bleed looks great:

As soon as we resize the screen, it introduces a grey bar and cuts/crops out the full bleed image effect :

on mobile looks great and doesn't crop the bottom part of the bleed, the moon etc:

Appreciate all the support given on this space, hope you can help.

Issue is on homepage:
I was able to get my home page gallery elements correct in spacing and columns with css. But in mobile mode, I'm having trouble with aligning the 2 gallery grid elements to the "inset" edge like every other element on my home page:
Gallery grid Id in question:

section[data-section-id="65c04f34561f77483f011ccb"]

on desktop mode its fine.

but on mobile mode it doesn't go to the edge:

Had a look and tried some code but nothing I found works. Appreciate any advice and help on this.

I'm using firefox to find the issue on my device windows. But its happening on a few MAC devices with safari also. Chrome windows seems fine now which is great. Just wondering if its possible to make sure there is a hard lock on the PIP for other devices. Any way to target the PIP with css etc?

.grid-image:after {

Hi,

I've made a "Latest work" gallery (grid:simple) block on my home page.
I'd like each image link to have a "hover" property like on my portfolio pages.

Current layout: hover does nothing different and text description padding is too low on image.

After changes:
1. padding on description text is closer up on image
2. Description text is this color #656565
3. Hover over stroke color #42c6ff + 5px stroke + image 20% bigger like in portfolio pages (motion/design/illustration)

Desired look:
