Sliders

Sliders can provide a great way to showcase key information on your website in a compact and visually attractive way; from products and portfolios to reviews, promos, events, news or awards.
Xara’s new sliders (introduced in v24.1) can be used to create simple photo sliders or much richer sliders that can have almost any content displayed on each slide.

A slider consists of two or more individual slides, where only one slide at a time is visible. In your website each slide is shown in turn, cycling through all the slides and then starting again with the first slide. You can have different animations on the slides and even on different objects on each slide, to create great visual effects on your site.

Using sliders in websites

The Navigation controls and Pause option work with touch devices too. In addition, touch users can navigate forwards and backwards through the slides by swiping left or right on the Slider
