I have a few questions i couldn't find answers in the docs or in the Codecanyon forum, i hope you can help me.
- Overlay Layer without transition I need to have a layer on top of the bg image, that has a solid colour, and that is present in that slide from the beginning. The problem i have is when i disable the transitions (in and out), that layer doesn't show, if i enable the transitions and disable the fade, it starts hidden and then it shows abruptly. I just need it to be there from the start, no transitions, as if it was part of the bg image.
- Parallax Despite that, in the slide options you have an option for parallax on scroll, it seems that the only parallax that can be done in the LayerSlider is the interactive one with the mouse. I tried several configurations, but nothing seems to happen, and in your examples you don't have the parallax with scroll. I'm trying to achieve this effect as in this example: https://codepen.io/ksksoft/pen/OPKQBP Is this possible in LayerSlider?
- Lazy loading / Preloading About this one i read about in the Codecanyon forum and someone was talking about having this option in the Slider Settings under Misc options. There i can only find the relative url, srcset, and restart on resize options, maybe i'm looking in the wrong place, but i've look all over and can't seem to find this option. In this case it would be for use with the bg images.
You can achieve layers appearing static by setting the offset options to zero and disabling the fade (the opening transition itself has to be enabled regardless for the layer to actually appear). Additionally you can use the Time Shift setting located in the Slide Options to sync the slide and layer animations on slide change.
The lazy load and preload options have been removed in version 6 (they are enabled by default now), that is why you can no longer find them in the settings.
- Overlay Layer without transition Unfortunately, i already used those settings, but didn't work as expected. The problem remains as the overlay layer starts hidden, then after 1 second or less the overlay layer appears (with or without fade, that is irrelevant). It is not there from the beginning, that is the point. I need it to be there, visible from the moment it loads the slideshow.
- Parallax Thank you for the suggestion, but maybe i'm missing something, but this is only applied to layers instead of the bg image? can it be applied to the bg image as well?
- Lazy loading / Preloading Ok, that is why i didn't find it :) I already had looked into the chrome console and it was loading all the images as soon as the page loaded. It was supposed to load each image as it move across each slide. Again i'm talking about bg images.
Thank you (for your patience as well!) Hugo Gonçalves
You have set 1000ms for the duration of the layer transition in. This means that it will take 1 second for the opening animation to finish, you will need to reduce this value.
The parallax effect cannot be applied to slide backgrounds at the moment.
When the source code is generated the images appear there but they are removed on slider init. The plugin might start to load some images that are used in the slider but it is immediately cancelled for the images that are not on the first slide. This method will not slow down the site or generate extra traffic as we cancel these downloads.
- Overlay Layer without transition Still the same behaviour. Even if all of those times and transitions are remove, the appearance of the layers, only happens after the initial fade in of the slideshow. There is always a delay between the appearance of the slideshow and that of the layers, despite removing transitions, times, etc. I assume it cant be done for the time being.
- Parallax Ok. Hope you guys can add that feature in the near future.
Hi!

Hey Hugo,
You can achieve layers appearing static by setting the offset options to zero and disabling the fade (the opening transition itself has to be enabled regardless for the layer to actually appear). Additionally you can use the Time Shift setting located in the Slide Options to sync the slide and layer animations on slide change.
The scroll parallax effect can be seen on the following demo slider: https://layerslider.kreaturamedia.com/sliders/sky-experience/
You can also import it from the Template Store to check the settings.
The lazy load and preload options have been removed in version 6 (they are enabled by default now), that is why you can no longer find them in the settings.
Hi Attila, nice to hear from you!

Ok.
Thank you again, Attila.

Have you also used the Time Shift option that I recommended earlier ?
Also, is there a test page where we can take a look at your slider ?
Hi Attila!
Sorry for the late reply.
Yes i have tried it, but the time gap remains between the bg and the layer. No luck. I'm going to use it as is.
No, this is in my local machine.
Thank you.
Hugo
