cycle 5 widget manipulation

[stuartwilson]

Hi there,
having just found a thread regarding widget manipulation i'm wondering if the size of the text box that runs along the bottom of the picture can be made smaller. Its obscuring to much. I realize the opacity can be changed but i would really like to be able to adjust this box size.

Cheers
Stuart

Just found this for the nivo slide show, thought I would just have to change name but replacing nivo with cycle of cycle 5 or any other combination I can think of doesn't hide the bar and leave the text.

<style>
.nivo-caption {background: none;}
</style>

Stuart, the detail to change in Cycle 5 would be that for the Caption Bar widget I used:

<style>
.ss2_wrapper .slideshow_box {
height: 12.5%;
width:50%;
left:25%;
background: #AC2877;
opacity: 0.6;
}
</style>

You would firstly change the size of the Heading text in the Xara widget as this is saved as a graphic and so can't be easily manipulated.
Secondly, change the height, width and left percentages so the caption is positioned to your taste.
