Gallery Block Sizing on Mobile

Hi there,

I am hoping there is a simple fix for an issue I am having. The gallery on desktop is exactly how I would like it to look, as a full-page slideshow is to be the focal point of the page. Additionally, we are fading in a logo over the slideshow, so we must use the gallery block vs. the gallery section. 

The issue is, on mobile the slideshow takes up only 1-2 inches of the page. I would like to make the slideshow take up more vertical space on mobile, essentially filling the entire screen, even if this means cutting off the sides of the images a bit. When I try to optimize the layout on mobile, it does not allow me to stretch the gallery taller.

Thanks in advance for your help!

If you use Gallery Section Slideshow, we can do this easier

Hi there -

Thanks so much for your response.

I have the gallery block for two reasons - 

- the client wants a smoother/slower transition between slides and
- the client would like elements on top of the slideshow (logo fading in, menu)

Totally happy to switch to a block if it's still possible to achieve these two points! 

You try adding this code to Design > Custom CSS

@media screen and (max-width:767px) {
div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1689670808952_37244, div#block-yui_3_17_2_1_1689670808952_37244 .slide, .sqs-gallery-design-stacked-slide img {
    height: 70vh !important;
}}

Hi @CGP123

Sorry to jump into this loop.

My name is Kelly. I just accidentally found your website, and I couldn't help but notice the beautiful folding menu in the PC view. It looks so cool and seamless! I was wondering if you would be willing to share how you achieved this effect?

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you : )

It is a plugin, but we can achieve it with custom code (but a lot of code). If you need help, you can create a new question on forum.

Kelly,

Thank you! this is from a course I took - https://standoutsquare.space/ It is a thorough coding course with a ton of info, but there are shorter tutorials for things like this, too. I highly recommend it!
