Here’s how it works:
In your Catapult editor click on the banner
Once the element has opened, you will be able to view the thumbnails for all the images currently being used, if any. You can choose to move your banner photos around by clicking on the grey bar on the thumbnail and dragging it to a different position, thereby reordering the banner images.
To edit a banner image, click on the pencil icon at the top of the thumbnail. The photo editor will open up and allow you to crop, adjust the light balance and color, or adjust the focus of the image. The focus tool can be helpful to make your photo look a little more professional as well as blur out students' faces in the background if you don’t have their photo permission.
The icon to the right of the pencil is for text and it will show up as one of two ways: a green speech bubble or a red wheelchair icon. The red icon stands for an ADA error. To fix an ADA error you must click the icon and fill out the text box labeled ‘Alt Text’. ADA text is required so if you have our forced ADA compliance turned on (which you should) you will not be able to save your banner until some alternative text has been added. Within the pop up window there are also spaces to create a title and caption for your image that will show up on the site, as opposed to the Alt or ADA text which will not be visible on the site.
