Smart Slider 3 – background animations removed in last update

Hi @trudyjm!

Thanks for contacting us!

With the latest release of Smart Slider3, we introduced new animations that can not work well with images that use a Fill mode other than Fill, so we had to make a limitation, that background animations will only work, if “fill” fill mode is being used. So since you are using the another fill mode, the background animations cannot work in your slider. The fill mode can be changed at the slider’s settings -> Slides tab:
https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1809-slider-settings-slides
or at each slide separately:
https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1724-slide#image

But if you would still have an issue after having “fill” fill mode, let me know!

Thank you Nextendnorbert. I do know where that setting is. I have background fill set to ‘blurr fit’ because it works for all sizes in full width slider with my images. Hoping it can be fixed to work for all fill modes eventually. Cheers!

No animation is working. It only uses the default slide left despite whatever I set.
