 * Hello Stackable. First I just want to say what a great plugin you guys have made.
   By far the most comprehensive and aesthetically pleasing blocks I’ve come across
   that isn’t paid. Great job!
 * But I have some issues. I’ve inserted a carousel block on the front page, and
   by default it generates three slideable columns. i then proceed to insert three
   hero images (as regular image block, not hero banner block) for each of the three
   columns. I then went ahead to turn the images into a text overlay block. For 
   some reason the text overlay block does not allow me to use the entire image 
   but forces a focus point, from which it crops the image to become smaller. Interestingly
   this cropping effect minimizes the images only on desktop. In mobile, there is
   no cropping, the entire image is there.
 * Is there a way to simply allow the entire image to show behind the text overlay
   for both mobile and desktop?
 * The other problem is that given I did not set the first column image as an image
   overlay while the 2nd and 3rd columns are, yet the carousel block height is set
   to the first image(longer), leaving the 2nd and third images(shorter after cropping)
   with a huge empty space below in desktop mode.
 * Please advise at your earliest thanks.

 * Hey [@ckwang](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ckwang/),
 * Thank you for your kind words about Stackable! We’re happy to have you with us.
   🙂
 * Going to your issue, we believe it might not be a Carousel block issue. We inspected
   the frontend and we see that you are using the _native Image block_ for the first
   slide and the _native Cover block_ for the second and third slide. It’s the behavior
   of the _native_ _Cover block_ to crop the image on desktop and display the full
   image on mobile. You may want to try using **Stackable’s Image block** and **
   Image box block** instead. Then in the Image box block, select the image and 
   reset the height to display the full image.
 * Please let us know if this helps!

 * Hi Bernice. I experimented with your blocks this time and I ran into a few issues
   >
    1. In order to do a image overlay similar to gutenberg blocks, i have to use a 
       paragraph or heading block, then assign a background image to the text block,
       but the image height is very narrow by default, conforming only to the paramters
       of the existing text, i have to max out the height in the block settings to 
       give the image full height—but i cannot do this for the width, which only is
       wide enough to conform to the text
    2. the paragraph block grants more full width to the image but you cannot move 
       the text to center even if you change the settings alignment to center, it still
       stays in the left margin—there is an additional horizontal alignment settings
       in the block settings in the header block that truly aligns it as you wish, 
       but this is absent in the paragraph block settings, the floating settings doesnt
       really do anything, same for the header block
 * my point: i want to have full original width and height of the background iage
   irrespective of the length and size of texts, whether paragraph or heading, and
   i want them to be freely moveable across all areas of the block/image.
 * thanks! Looking forward to your response
