Layout - Full width vs Classic vs Clean
Venue was originally designed to display your product images the full width of your product page with the description and Add to cart module below. We have recently added the ability to select a Classic or Clean layout which places the product images and Add to cart module side by side. For Classic the description, reviews and global tabs will still remain below. For Clean the description moves under 'add to cart' area.
More on background color
If you use product images that have been cut out in Photoshop and placed on a transparent background - perhaps with a drop shadow - you can achieve some dramatic effects on your product pages.
- You can select Default on the Background height to make the background color look like it is cutting through the product. This gives your page depth.
- Alternatively by selecting Full on the Background height you can put a full height block of color behind your product shots. This can make them look like they are floating.
- Alternatively use a white or transparent background color for a more minimal look.
Text color
If you have decided to use a very dark background color on your product pages you might find that the product heading, brand border and vendor heading don't have enough contrast to be legible. In this case we recommend setting the Text color to Light.
This feature does not affect any headings in the rest of your store.
