I can't figure out how to loop my slide. My slide it comprised of 4 layers. Layers 1-3 are the images that are meant to cycle, while Layer 4 is a text overlay that remains fixed in place. I can't get Layer 3 to transition into Layer 1 and start the slide over. I've tried using a #replay link on Layer 3, but it ends up showing Layer 2...then Layer 2 doesn't do anything after that. Can you explain how to do what I'm asking?
The looping feature only works with multiple slides. Since you only have one slide, there is no other content to loop through. You can duplicate your current slide to create an identical second copy that you can use with looping.
Thank you. So there is way even with custom CSS? If I want a stationary background with 8 looping words, how would I do that with 8 slides? Is there a way to make the background stationary or locked and then produce 8 transparent slides with one word each? Would that work?
Thanks very much, I look forward to your answer. RW
If you want to stick with the workaround method, the global slider background option would help with that case.
As an alternate method, you could also loop the layers. You can set up a looping transition for the layers with the Loop or Middle Transition area, under the Transitions tab in the Layers section. You can loop them infinitely, set a count or even use the Yoyo effect.
Or you could also restart the whole slider by using the LayerSlider API. To do that you will need to enter the following to the Event Callbacks -> slideTimelineDidComplete event:

I am having the same trouble. I can't get layers to do infinite loop on one slide.
