    Dear Kriesi

    Hope this makes sense. I have a series of images on a home page (5 in a grid row). They are to link through to the appropriate pages in the site and so act as a larger menu.

    When I select the Image caption tab, the image darkens and the text is set across the centre of the image. Is there any way of having this darkened transparency just behind the wording so that the original image displays in it’s original form?

    Ideally I want white writing on a transparent dark text box.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Regards,

    Ali

    Hey!

    Just to make sure I understand what you are trying to achieve; do you want the background of the text to darken on hover, or do you want the whole image to darken?

    Regards,
    Rikard

    Hey!

    Ok, I think I get what you’re trying to achieve. Please add the following to your Quick CSS: 

    .av-image-caption-overlay {
width: 100% !important;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5) !important;
}

    Cheers!
