 * My Slider Pro sliders work great, but there is one detail I can’t find a cure
   for, the captions’ responsiveness. On a stationary desktop and a laptop the captions
   are quite big, on an iPad they are “normal”, but on a smartphone they are far
   too small. In the breakpoints options i can’t find any settings to change the
   captions’ size. Is it possible to achieve?

 * Hi. Are you using the Caption area or the Layers area for adding captions? If
   you’re using Layers, you could disable the `Auto Scale Layers` option, which 
   is responsible for automatically resizing the layers proportionally with the 
   size of the slider. Then, you can use custom CSS and media queries to customize
   the aspect of the layers for different screen sizes. Example 1 uses this method.
 * Best,

 * Thanks, yes I used layers and unchecking auto scale made thing a lot better. 
   I have some css to format the captions text, but is there a way to make the dots
   under the slider smaller? On the smartphone they are now huge.

 * Still hoping for an answer on how to change size on the slide dots. And one more
   thing: I’m trying to change the font size but to no avail, I’m afraid. I have
   added this CSS:
 * .sliderpro-h3 {
   font-size: 16px;font-family: Raleway, sans-serif;font-weight:
   400;line-height: 22px;padding-bottom: 5px;padding-left: 5ppadding-right: 5px}
 * but no matter how I change the font size here it stays the same in the slides.
   What do I do wrong?

 * Hi,
 * You can control the size of the buttons with this CSS:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       .sp-button {
           width: 18px;
           height: 18px;
       }
       ```
   
 * You might need to add `!important` in order to enforce your own styling or use
   a selector with higher priority.
 * However, please note that on mobile it’s better to have bigger buttons in order
   to make them easier to tap.
 * Regarding the font styling you must check that your CSS selector is correct and
   your styling is not being overwritten by other CSS. I can’t say exactly why it
   doesn’t work for you without checking the actual page. Also, please note that
   you have some syntax error in the code you pasted here: `padding-left: 5p` should
   be `padding-left: 5px;`
 * Best,
   David

 * Thanks so much! I can now change the caption font size and make the buttons as
   small as I want. Great!
