Reduce the height of Carousel with Expanding Links

Webpart name: Carousel with Expanding Links
Height of the Webpart What is current web part behavior (or look) that doesn’t work for you?
> Have a screenshot (please do not include confidential info in your screenshots)?
To be able to reduce the height of the webpart less than 200px What would you like the web part behavior (or look) to be?
> Have a sketch or a mockup?
the banner covers maximum area of the site and hence to increase the content displayed on the screen, this is required What is the scenario for which you need the suggested new look/behavior?

Thanks for posting this.
Could you clarify the scenario for which you’re needing this enhancement.
When the height is 333px, the banner fits some content.

Under 200, the banner doesn’t fit most of the content:

What would making it less than 200 help you accomplish?
Perhaps there is another approach to get to what you need.

We only need to add 1 word of text on the image. and the font size could be 12 to 14 px which is fine to us. Reducing the banner image less than 200px would push the other contents of the page above and hence improve the visibility of more contents of the page.

Have you tried using Heading and separator web part with custom font for SharePoint along with section background?
If you’re only needing to display a line of text with a background, this web part is a great solution.

Let me check and get back to you.

Hi

I tried the Heading webpart. This only allows text. We need a background image like a banner and a text, which would mostly be the site name. But Heading webpart doesn’t give us the option to add an image.

If the background image is all you need, you can achieve this by adding a background image to a section like this:

  1. Add new section
  2. Access section properties
  3. Access the Design tab
  4. Add a background image of your choice
  5. The add a Heading web part as usual

We are yet to get a confirmation from the user. We shall get back to you as soon as we hear from the user.
