michael9 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Hi, I'm trying to find out how to change the controls of the reels so they can be controlled by your finger swiping left and right or the mouse (instead of the buttons that slide the entire picture across to the next one). I would like the controls to be similar to this site: https://www.jumbophotographe.com/Daisy-Ridely-Grazia-China Any help greatly appreciated. Thank you! Link to comment
creedon Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Reels and the example page you point to are using two completely different techniques. The example page is using a block that just has a bunch of content stacked from left to right. Because the content is so wide (overflow) a scroll bar is added and you can scroll. It's exactly the same behaviour you get when looking at a long webpage. You can scroll down. Well in this case you scroll horizontally. The reel tries not to exceed the width of the screen and provides controls to go forward or back. So the first question is, do you want to use the reel? Or do you want to use something more like the example page? It may be possible to add mobile type finger control to the reel. Please post the URL to the page with the reel on it. If your site is not public please set up a site-wide password, if you've not already done so. Post the password here. We can then take a look at your issue. Find my contributions useful?

michael9 Posted January 15, 2021 Author Share Posted January 15, 2021 Thanks for your help Creedon. I would be happy to use something like the example instead of reels, however, I've spent quite bit of time currently designing it with the reels format so if I can make it work similarly using reels that would be fantastic. The domain is www.michaeltoman.co.uk and the password is 'reels'. Thanks again for your help! M Link to comment
