Insert additional images to designs

In some cases, it can be valuable to also show additional images, in addition to the main product image, to show off different angles or perhaps highlight details.

Confect lets you import more than one image from your data feed, and show them in your designs. The limit for additional images usable in a design is 5 at the moment.

This can only be done if your data feed includes additional images, so ensure your data source URL includes the “additional_image_link” field before starting.

Add additional images

1. Add the image through a "Shape"

The first step is to "Add a shape" by clicking the icon on top of the layer tab, in the top-right corner.

Now, click on the "Fill type" dropdown menu in the "Shape settings" tab on the lower right side of your screen, and select which additional image you want to show (use up to 5 in your designs).

You can add as many additional images as you wish.

2. Adjust the sizing

Now, you can click on the additional image, scale it up or down, and change the position in the design.

When scaling this image, the aspect ratio will not change by default. If you’d like to change this, toggle on "Stretch in cell" under "Shape settings" to have the additional image go from border to border.

This will not stretch out the image but instead crop it to fit the layer.

Optional: Hide the original image

If you wish to remove the product image from the design, do not delete the layer.

Instead, set the opacity to 0% in the "Layer" settings for the product layer.

Alternatively, you may also just place a shape or element on top of the product to hide it.
