Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Gorres Scrollytelling
For "fill the frame" the aspect ratio does not matter, but the resolution does: a screen-high medium needs roughly screen height times aspect ratio in width, so about 2560 pixels for a 16:9 image. For "show the whole medium" it is worth giving every medium of a story the same aspect ratio, otherwise the free margins change from step to step.
A landscape image that fills a screen held upright only shows its middle part. Set the focal point of the step to keep the important part in view, or give the step a second image for portrait screens: open "Portrait screens" in the settings of the step and choose an image in portrait format. It replaces the image of the step whenever the screen is taller than wide, has its own focal point and shares the alternative text. Only images can be replaced this way, not videos.
Yes, images and videos from the media library. A video runs muted and only while its own step is visible, and it stays paused when the visitor asked for reduced motion.
Its text scrolls across the medium of the previous step. That is useful for a closing note on the last image.
Yes. Give the first step the medium and add further steps without one: their text boxes scroll across the medium of the first step, one after the other. To bring the boxes closer together, open "Height" in the settings of such a step, switch off "Use the step height of the story" and choose a lower height. Each of these steps keeps its own look and its own text effect. Inside a row the height of a single step has no effect.
Yes. Give the first step the title image and switch on "Let the image scroll along" under "Medium". The image fills the screen when the page loads and scrolls away with the step, while the medium of the next step already shows behind it. An image that is taller than the screen at full width keeps its height, and the step becomes as tall as the image; give the step a height of its own under "Height" and the image fills exactly that. Combined with a text box that is kept in place, a hint or a headline stays on screen while the title image leaves. Only images can scroll along, not videos, and inside a row the setting has no effect.
Yes. Open "Position" in the settings of the step and switch on "Keep the text box in place". The text box then stays where it is on the screen while the visitor scrolls through the step, and leaves at the top when the step ends. How long it stays depends on the height of the step: give the step a height above 100 percent under "Height", 150 percent keeps the box for half a screen of scrolling. In the same place a step can put its text box somewhere else than the rest of the story. A text box kept in place has no text effect, and inside a row the setting has no effect.
With "Limit the stage to the medium" the stage is lower than the screen, and content after the story only follows the last step. Switch on "Pull up the following content" in the story block: the content after it then sits right below the stage while the steps play and scrolls on once the story ends. If the content belongs to the story itself, put it into a "Scrollytelling Afterword" block inside the story instead.
Browsers with scroll timelines (Chrome, Edge, Safari from version 26) move the row along with the scroll position. All others, Firefox at the time of writing, glide from one step to the next. If the text of a step is too tall for the screen, or the visitor asked for reduced motion, the steps of the row follow each other vertically like ordinary steps. Text effects do not apply inside a row.
The story dims its media; you can set how much. Each step can also give its text box a background, a border and a shadow and set its own text color through the usual block settings.
