    tldr; The ‘Add text over image’ overlay is too tall. Manually shrinking it causes other size problems – disalignment, etc.

    Nothing broken (prob currently) at the URL at the moment.

    I’m trying to use the ‘Add text over image’ button and when I do, the image — or, technically, it seems, the cover — becomes (or is) a lot bigger than the image it is covering.

    It’s possible I just don’t know how this functionality works — it does look great — if I can get it to size correctly.

    Basically, i have this middle image there, and I want to put some simple text on/over it — in my case, “Coming Soon” — but instead of being, say, 300×300, the overlay text becomes 500×300 — and I can drag the bottom image of the overlay up to make it look the same height as the other images to either side, but then when back out of Editor mode — in ‘regular person viewing the site’ mode — the image/cover is either too short or too tall — it does not match the size of the images on either side.

    It seems the images on either size are 600×600 at full height, and on my laptop come down to around 300×300 when viewing in the editor.

    thanks for any ideas!

  • HI @shmooth,

    Thank you for using Raft theme. From the description above it seems that you’re referring to default Gutenberg blocks (image block) and its functionality to have texts on top of it’s not something specific to Raft theme, the same behavior should be on any theme.

    I’m not sure that I’m entirely following but you should be able to resize the image or text size to match it better on the image and not to expand it more than the image size by playing around with those.
