Custom Bric: Animated Color-Background

Hello @tom2, thank you :slight_smile: I will release the date picker bric with some other brics in 1-2 months in a payed brics package.

A nice fun effect - many thanks for making it available. One little suggestion though - how simple would it be to add an angle option to the settings? Such a feature would allow us to select from horizontal, vertical or diagonal transitions. It’s not a deal breaker if it’s difficult to do, but if you were thinking of adding this bric to a paid package of brics, it could be a nice way to add a little something extra that isn’t in the free version - just a thought!

Hello @hendon52 thank you for the sugestion. I will have a look tomorrow, how easy it will be. This Bric is and will rest free, so it will not be added to the payed Brics Package :slight_smile: @tom2 asked about an other Bric called „Date Picker“.

It’s so cool the way so many contribute to making Blocs Rock!
Thanks for taking your time, your willingness to share your knowledge and allow us to use your work. :grinning:

I am not seeing any option to choose colours in the bric settings with 1.1.

Hello @Flashman, can you please send me the image as PM, because I again have the problem with the forum certificates, so I can not see any images.

Do you have this problem only with the latest beta, or also with the stable version?

Can you please once restart Blocs, and test if it works after a Blocs restart.

Thank you very much in advanced.

Anyone know how to keep this within a Bloc and not the whole page? I would like to create this within a section/header.

Neither one of these links work

@KBConcepts, you can use the Blocs Store for the correct links.

Have you tried colouring the backgrounds of the other blocs to make them white for example?

Hi ya,

No - what I was trying to achieve was this bric as a back ground for a banner and layer an image and text over it. Seen it on a few Wordpress sites a while back and they used it to great effect, just gave a nice feeling to the site.

But i see where you are coming from, colour the remaining blocs white.

Think it looks a but tacky on the whole page, they I guess it all depends how it’s designed.

I guess with some code it could be directed to a bloc only…

Be nice to see how people have used this bric.

HI. @webplus, could you put the “how to” video live again somewhere, please?

Place the Bric anywhere on your page. For Brics like this I tend to place them in the footer, the location for one like this doesn’t matter so much.

You will find the Bric in the Bric Library. Right hand panel. If you just installed it, you will probably need to restart Blocs for it to show up in the library.

ok thank you very much Malachiman, I did as you said. I putted the brick with animated background, but nothing happen :sweat:
