General settings

A guide to the general settings of Zest

In the Zest theme, you can find some general settings that are available in all building block sections:

Color scheme

Apply a color scheme to the section.

To define a set of default color schemes for your store, go to Theme settings > Colors

In Shopify, the Color scheme (a set of colors) of your store can be set within the Theme settings. It helps group elements and their respective colors, making your store visually appealing and cohesive. You can apply the color schemes to different sections throughout your online store with a color scheme picker.

Container

3 options for container

  • Stretched width: span the section width regardless of screen size.

  • Fixed width: depends on your page content width in Theme settings > Layout.

  • Full width: takes up the entire space on the page and it usually resizes itself to fit the size of the screen.

Section padding

Toggle the slider to adjust the Top and Bottom padding of the section (0px - 100px).

Make sure your paddings look good on all screen sizes

Section divider

This divider line provides a clear boundary between the current section and the above.

To activate the divider line, enable the Show divider checkbox.

Choose a suitable Divider width for the divider: Fixed width/ Full width/ Stretched width.

Custom attributes

You can create custom code for a specific section by adding Custom ID or Classes attributes:

Animations

Most sections come with a setting for animations.

You can either set the section loading effect to each of the sections (if present) particularly or make them inherit the global settings that you set in your Theme settings > Animations.

🌟 Section animation settings are available on Zest version 6.0.0 and above 🌟

Highlight text

To add an animated highlight to the text, simply wrap it in italics. Click the "I" button in the editor to toggle italics when highlighting text.

You can apply the Underline or Draw Line effect to the Highlighted text, or select None if you prefer it to appear in italic style only.

To use the Highlight text color defined in the Color scheme, enable the Highlighted text color toggle.
