  Hi. I am using the Argent display. Is it possible to have some of the individual projects in my portfolio zoom in when you hover over them? On the mailers portfolio group I have a project that is 11X17 vertical layout but you can’t read any of the words on the pdf because it is so small. The projects are in a slideshow. Thank you for your help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi jennilehmanndesign,

  The height of the slideshow is fixed wich means all the images you upload are displayed at the same height. If you want to change the height of the slideshow you can do that in the custom CSS section (themes > customize ) but that only works if you are on a premium plan or higher.

  As far as I can see changing the height of 1 image is not possible in the theme.

  Another possibility would be to make a cutout of the PDF. So in the slider you have a smaller part of the full image wich makes the text readable.

  Hope this helps you out, let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

  Hi there jennilehmanndesign,

  I’m not seeing any specific option to enable a mouseover/hover over for your slider images/pdfs in regards to the Argent theme that I’ve found so far.

  A solution like this usually ends up needing an additional plugin like Magic Thumb by the looks of it (adding plugins would also require an upgrade to Business plan or higher).

  That being said, you could look at making each image/pdf in a slideshow a link to the file itself.

  So for instance, on the https://jennilehmanndesign.wordpress.com/portfolio/typography/ page of you site, you could add a link surrounding an image/pdf in each project in the Text edit section of each of them so it might look something like this:

  <a href="https://jennilehmanndesign.files.wordpress.com/2017/07/homecoming-brochure-back.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-20" src="https://jennilehmanndesign.files.wordpress.com/2017/07/homecoming-brochure-back.png" alt="" /></a>

  Let us know what you find though.

  Thanks,
  Richard
