Hi, I’ve followed the instructions in this post to change my rollover icon. https://kriesi.at/support/topic/rollover-disc-arrow-replacement-part-2/
I changed it fine but it doesn’t look right for some reason, I want this icon, “U+2295” which is a nice thick plus symbol.

Firstly I had to change the font size from 18 to 60 as it was tiny, but it is really thin and has a border round the circle ?
Also its not in the center of the circle its too low ?

see attached image

the icon I want in this library http://www.entypo.com/characters/ is a nice thick cross with no border, not sure if i need to change some more settings here is the code Ive changed in base.css all I changed was the two lines
```
.image-overlay.overlay-type-extern .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\2295";}
	.image-overlay.overlay-type-video .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\2295";}
```
here is the full code
```
.image-overlay{position: absolute; background: #fff; z-index: 500; height:100%; width:100%; opacity: 0; filter:alpha(opacity=0);}
	.image-overlay .image-overlay-inside{height:100%; width:100%; position: absolute; left:0; top:0;}
	.image-overlay .image-overlay-inside:before{position: absolute; border-radius: 50px; background: #000; height:80px; width:80px; line-height:80px; left:50%; top:50%; margin: -40px 0 0 -40px; z-index: 500; text-align: center; color:#fff;}
	.image-overlay .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\E744"; font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; font-size: 60px; font-weight: normal; }
.image-overlay.overlay-type-extern .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\2295";}
	.image-overlay.overlay-type-video .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\2295";}
	#top .hide-inner-overlay .image-overlay-inside{display: none;}
```
Many thanks

Hey mattock!

You can add this on your custom.css or Quick CSS to move the icon upwards:
```
.image-overlay .image-overlay-inside:before {
line-height: 70px;
}
```
Adjust the line-height if necessary.

Cheers!

Hey Ismael thanks for the reply. That’s great for the alignment but what about my first problem of the icon not looking like it should do.
here is what it should look like

but mine has two problems
1) the plus symbol is much thinner
2) it has a circular a white border ?
i just want the plus symbol exactly as it shows in the entypo library

Now I also have a new problem, I’ve updated to the latest Enfold from 2.2 to 2.3 and now I cannot change icons at all only the font size ?
I’ve added the same code to the new base.css file and have tried various things with the 2295 adding U in front etc

With the update do we need to change more than those two lines now ?
Many thanks

Hey!

Sorry, my bad! You need to add the changes on your custom.css or Quick CSS:
```
.image-overlay .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\E869"; font-family: 'entypo-fontello'; font-size: 40px; font-weight: normal; }
.image-overlay.overlay-type-extern .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\2295";}
.image-overlay.overlay-type-video .image-overlay-inside:before{content:"\2295";}
```
Looks like the border around the cross symbol can’t be change. I tried to find it on the css properties, it’s not there.

Cheers!

Hi thanks for persisting with this and all your help , the outline looks really bad and is happening on all of them so think I’m going to have to give up on this. I also tried a non circular icon for eg : “U+E744″ which I’ve seen used by others, but this was just blank on roll over didn’t work at all ?

I changed the same as others {content:”\E744”;} ?

This is not working well so can I use my own png , if so how do I do this ?
Many thanks

Hello!

You can use the url of the png image on the content property:

`.image-overlay.overlay-type-extern .image-overlay-inside:before{content:url(smiley.png);}
.image-overlay.overlay-type-video .image-overlay-inside:before{content:url(smiley.png);}

Ismael
