Animated columns on mobile devices

    I read that columns are set to not be animated when the site is displayed on mobile devices. I understand that this is because mobile devices don’t support hovering.

    That is fair enough, but would it be possible to at least choose the ‘Static on image’ option as well as the ‘Static under image’ default? Also, the images don’t seem to scale well on mobile devices – the 3×3 grid I have on a PC rearranges itself to a 1×9 column on my mobile. Needless to say, it breaks the arrangement I created. Is there a way to set it up so that it doesn’t break the lines and simply scales to some very small size?

    Frankly, this problem is really frustrating: it makes a really amazing theme unusable, because it is virtually impossible to make a site look good on both PC and mobile device.

    Thanks!

    The columns re-arrangement is designed for menium-sized image usage. As a result it may not have the desired appearance when using very large or very small images in the columns or the specific layout you’ve used. We cannot create a “one layout fits all scenarios” solution.

    If in your case the re-arrangement doesn’t work, you can force it to a different arrangement with custom styling:

    body #forbottom #front-columns > div {
        clear: none !important;
        float: left;
        margin: 0 0.5% 0.5% !important;
        width: 32%;
    }

    Thanks! This makes it a bit better, except that the text doesn’t scale with the pictures. Is there a way to do this as well?

    Also, do you think there is a chance that the ‘Static on image’ option will be developed for mobile devices?

    Thanks again for your help!
