2. Advanced Settings

  • Change Colors As Gradient: In case all the background layers are set to solid colors (no images are added) – then you can enable this option to change background color as a gradient.
  • Transition Duration: Set Time Duration for Background Transition Speed in seconds.
  • Offset (PX): Set a value to specify the distance between the top of the viewport and the top of the section elements. For instance, you can add [100px] or [-100px]. The difference between those two values is that [100px] will make the color appears before you reach the section with [100px] value and vice versa. The default value is 30px.
