Text media · Collage

Two offset photos with a figure over the joint, beside an intro and a primary button.

Text media · Collage

See it live: Text media · Collage on fancybricks.co — the live preview, and the button that copies it.

Or open the preview on its own — narrow the window to see it on a phone — and in dark mode.

In the builder

Preview on the front end. Scripts don't run inside the builder, so here you only see the layout: the photos do not float here and the pause button is hidden (the builder does not run the code). Save and open the page to see the full result.

Structure​

This is what the Bricks Structure panel shows after you paste the template. Component instances say which component they are.

Text media · Collage
Container
Media text (FBK Media text)
Collage + pause

The template also pastes a dashed note above the section, with the short version of this page. It only shows inside the builder, never on the published page — see Builder notes.

How to adjust​

Every step is the same move: pick the element in the Structure panel, change its Properties.

Where are those panels?

How to adjust a template shows every one of them in a screenshot of the real builder: the Structure and Properties panels, the classes on an element, a component's style families and the field where a CSS variable goes.

The classes this element carries, in the Bricks panel.

  1. Paste the template in Bricks first — see Copy and paste.
  2. Select Media text (FBK Media text) › Properties: Layout group: Media side, Columns, Vertical alignment, Order when stacked · Style group: Look, Tone, Shape, Overlap.
  3. Select Image · First, Image · Second (FBK Image) › Properties: Image, Alt text · Shape group: Proportion, Shape, Decoration, Border · Size and loading group: Loading, Width, Max width, Alignment · Caption group: Caption, Hide caption.
  4. Select Intro (FBK Intro) › Properties: Eyebrow, Hide eyebrow, Title, Title level, Lead, Hide lead · Style group: Eyebrow style, Highlight, Title size, Accent line · Layout group: Alignment, Layout, Background, Spacing · Motion group: Reveal in slider.
  5. Select Button · Primary (FBK Button) › Properties: Text, Link, Tone, Shadow on hover · Icon group: Icon, Icon position · Style group: Style, Size, Width, Hover effect.
  6. Spacing, sizes, color and timing with no property of their own: the CSS variables below.

CSS variables​

These are the only values in the template meant to be changed by hand. Copy the block, paste it, edit the numbers.

The Custom CSS field of this template's own element, with one of its variables as a real example.

The Custom CSS field of this template's own element, with one of its variables as a real example.

/* «Collage» · class .fbk-collage */
.fbk-collage {
/* Collage: how far the second photo sits lower */
--fbk-t-offset: var(--space-xl);
/* one hover duration for the whole library (--fbk-hover) */
--fbk-t-time: var(--fbk-hover);
}

Paste the block in the element's Style → CSS field (the selector is already in it), or set the same variables on the class itself to change every copy at once. The values are your framework's variables, so they follow your site: Choosing a framework.

Requirements​

  • Code execution. Needs "Execute code" enabled for the role in Bricks → Settings → Custom code, or the JS block shows as plain text instead of running.

What each requirement is, and how to set it up once for the whole site: Requirements.

Finish by hand​

  • Replace the photos in each FBK Image; change the figure and its label in the badge texts.
  • The badge is a Fancy Bricks surface, Solid · Neutral (classes fbk-ui, fbk-ui--surface, fbk-ui--solid, fbk-ui--neutral): remove fbk-ui--neutral for the brand color.
  • How far the second photo sits lower: --fbk-t-offset on .fbk-collage.
  • If you link the badge, it comes forward on hover (the photos stay still): the class .fbk-collage--motion (Style > CSS); remove it for a still badge. The photos parting and closing in time with the ring around the figure are the class .fbk-collage--float on Collage + pause: remove it (and the pause button) for a still collage. The pause button is required while they move (WCAG 2.2.2; it needs "Execute code"); they also stop off screen and with reduced motion.
  • The button's hover is its Hover effect property: Sweep (the same on every Fancy Bricks demo).

On phones​

The template is designed desktop first, the Bricks default, and only changes at the two widths the library uses:

  • 991px and below — .fbk-intro, .fbk-mediatext.
  • 767px and below — .fbk-collage__badge, .fbk-section.

Those changes live in Bricks' own breakpoint fields, so you edit them where you always do: pick the breakpoint in the toolbar and the same fields follow.

Careful with the classes shared by the whole library (fbk-section, fbk-intro, the component classes): a change there shows up in every template that uses them.

If your site's breakpoints are set up mobile first, copy the mobile-first variant of the template instead — see Copy and paste.

Accessibility​

In this template, keyboard focus is visible on every interactive piece; movement is cut back when the visitor's system asks for less motion; the state screen readers need is already set (aria-hidden, aria-label).

What is checked on every template, and what depends on your own palette: Accessibility.

Dark mode​

With your site in dark mode this section turns dark too — the class fbk-section--auto-dark on the section does it. Remove the class to keep it light.

Its background is a modifier on the section, so you can swap it for any of the ones the template is checked with: fbk-section--light, fbk-section--soft, fbk-section--dark.

How the library follows your site's color scheme: Dark mode and preview.
