Brizy Cloud Layout Issues

Daniel Macleod

I've just started a layout using Brizy Cloud to see how easy it is to assemble a quick landing page and I'm viewing the layout on three different, common desktop monitors: 1680x1050, 1920x1080 and 1920x1200.

Each section of this landing page is intended to be 1920x1080 and a background image is being used that is also 1920x1080.

So far Section 1 and Section 2 have text over an image (all over a background image) and look fine over all three monitor resolutions. However, when I get to Section 3, I cannot get the text to remain over the image (soccer player at left).

I then thought that I should introduce the ROW element to Section 3, one row for the image and the overlaying text, a second row for the text below the image (in yellow and in white). 

It is proving very difficult to add the ROW element to the layout. Whenever I try to drag the ROW element icon to the layout, whether in an existing block or if I create a new block, the layout jumps to the top of Section 3 and any element added is put there ... I'm not sure why it is so difficult to add elements to a precise spot.

How can I add elements to precise areas on the page without the layout jumping to the previous block?

Here are links to:

SECTION 1: https://d.pr/i/Q5t6EI

SECTION 2: https://d.pr/i/qUiVnC

SECTION 3: https://d.pr/i/rXZVBy

VIDEO of me trying to add a ROW element and layout is jumping to a different block: https://d.pr/v/xaeOiK

It would be nice to double-click (or click with a modifier key and have an element inserted instead of just dragging if that prevented jumping of the layout).

I'll continue to experiment with layouts but trying stack elements over one another (without adding custom code) is proving challenging.

Anyone experiencing difficulties in dragging elements and having the layout jump?

    Hello Daniel,

    Natalia here, Brizy customer team. 

    Yesterday in the evening I tested this issue on your page and I could not drag any of the elements from the sidebar, in the last block. This morning, I tested again, and I could not reproduce this bug anymore. I see the last block has been removed, therefore I added a new one, and still, I could drag a couple of widgets. 

    Please, send us a short update - did you change something in your page? 

     

    Thank you!

    Natalia

    Hi Natalia, I tried to continue on the EquitySt STG project so I removed several text elements and replaced them with images (so the text wouldn’t shift over the background graphic) – I’ll revert to text elements once I have a usable layout for previewing purposes. Once several text elements were removed then I was able to drag widgets from the sidebar onto row and column elements without the interface jumping. I would have preferred making a duplicate copy of the EquitySt STG project but the drop-down menu only has publish, leads, move and delete – I’m not sure why it doesn’t have a ‘duplicate’. Since there was no ‘duplicate’ I ended up ‘saving layout’ (refer to Project #2) of a few blocks, while editing the project, and still if I drag widgets from the sidebar the layout jumps – likely due to the text elements at the bottom where their properties put them low on the overall page. For now, the EquitySt STG project is working alright and I’m continuing to familiarize myself with how Brizy functions, I’m still hoping to duplicate EquitySt STG and stack text elements over graphics and hopefully on resizing the responsiveness still allows the text and graphics to align as expected (which is proving challenging). Thanks for following up, Daniel

    Nelea,

    Did you test dragging out widgets in my Project #2? The interface jumps just like the EquitySt STG project did when I first contacted support. I'm curious if you have the same issues on your end.

    Have an enjoyable weekend,
    Daniel

    Hi Daniel,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us.

    We could add elements to your page without any problem, see here. Could you please try to work from an incognito browser, maybe you have a browser extension installed which caused this problem?

    Please let us know if we can help you with something else.

    Best regards,

    Nelea.
