 * Is there a way to set a slides background images alignment to left (fill mode:
   fit)?

 * Hi [@achim945](https://wordpress.org/support/users/achim945/)
 * The Fit fill mode:
    - [https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1809-slider-settings-slides](https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1809-slider-settings-slides)
 * will make your slider as big as it needs to be to fit into the slider. By modifying
   the Focus point of the image:
    - [https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1724-slide#focus](https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1724-slide#focus)
 * you could basically “move” the Slide background image in the slider when the 
   aspect ratio of the slide background image and the slider differs.
 * Best regards,
    Laszlo.

 * Thank you Laszlo,
 * works fine with Focus X=0. I just hoped that there is a global setting for background
   alignment so i wouldn’t have to touch all images in the slider individually, 
   which in this case is a very basic – slideshow.-)
 * I wonder if this could be achived by adding some custom CSS code.

 * Hi [@achim945](https://wordpress.org/support/users/achim945/)!
 * Unfortunately, we don’t have options for that. You could create custom CSS code,
   but please note that we’re unable to provide help with custom coding, or the 
   possible issues that are happening because of them, so you’ll need to have the
   necessary coding knowledge to write this functionality.
 * First of all, you have to find the Slider’s id, which looks similar to this:
 * `n2-ss-{slider-id}`
 * and with this selector you could add a custom CSS code to the images to modify
   the focus point:
 *     ```
       #n2-ss-{slider-id} .n2-ss-slide-background-image img {  
              object-position: {X} {Y}!Important; 
       }
       ```
   
 * and this would have an effect on all Slides in your Slider.
 * Best regards,
    Norbert

 * Danke Norbert,
 * exactly what i was looking for. By leaving out the slide ID i can address slides
   globally.
