I’m having trouble with

Background and text boxes

Working in

Wix Editor

Site link
If this is happening on a site, include a live or test site link

What I’m trying to do

Having a fixed background with scrolling text

What I’ve tried so far

Created test site and set background. Set background to Reveal. Added text boxes which extend below background image. When I scroll down, the text below image becomes visable against a white background. I could stretch the background, but this distorts the image. How can I get all of the text to appear against the background image when I scroll.

Extra context

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but complete newcomer!
Anything else that might help - edge cases, screenshots, etc.

Hi, @Peter_Brooks !!

I’m not entirely sure if I fully understand your question, but it sounds like you might want to set your background image to Parallax. :thinking:
When you use a parallax background, it behaves a bit like watching distant mountains from a train window — the background hardly moves while the content in front of it scrolls smoothly.
In other words, the background stays mostly fixed while the text above it scrolls. That should give you the effect you’re looking for! :innocent:
