Scrolling pattern

This guide describes how to set up the Scrolling pattern section.

Use the section to add an area with a moving or scrolling pattern to a page.

The previous image shows an example store's home page. In the upper left, part of the Theme editor's Scrolling pattern section menu is displayed. The menu's Pattern size option is set to 42 pixels. This option specifies a size for the section's pattern. For example, in the previous image, the size of the triangle pattern displayed in the section is 42 pixels.

For general guidance with modifying sections, refer to Sections overview and Shopify help: Sections and blocks.
