Interactive swatches

The interactive swatches panel appears next to the video content if interactive data was passed to the viewer in configuration. It consists of a banner at the top that renders text such as “Click to View”, a column of one or more interactive swatches and two scroll buttons (available only on desktop systems).

On desktop systems and on touch devices, in landscape orientation, interactive swatches are rendered vertically to the right of the video content. On touch devices in portrait orientation they appear at the bottom of the viewer, as a horizontal row of swatches.

The following CSS class selector controls the location and orientation of the interactive swatches panel:

.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches

CSS properties of the interactive swatches

The run-time location and orientation of the interactive swatches panel is defined by a combination of the above CSS properties as follows:

• To render interactive swatches horizontally at the bottom of the viewer, set the height to an absolute pixel value; left and bottom to 0px; width, right, and top to auto.
• To render interactive swatches vertically to the right of the video content, set the width to an absolute pixel; right and top to 0px; height, left and bottom to auto.

It is possible to use CSS markers in conjunction with this styling to achieve adaptive placement of the interactive swatches panel.

Example

To set up an interactive swatches panel to render horizontally at the bottom of the viewer on touch devices in landscape orientation and to show vertically to the right of the video content in all other cases:

.s7interactivevideoviewer.s7touchinput.s7device_landscape .s7interactiveswatches, 
.s7interactivevideoviewer.s7mouseinput .s7interactiveswatches { 
 width:120px; 
 height:auto; 
 right:0px; 
 top:0px; 
 left:auto; 
 bottom:auto; 
} 
.s7interactivevideoviewer.s7touchinput.s7device_portrait .s7interactiveswatches { 
 width:auto; 
 height:136px; 
 right:auto; 
 top:auto; 
 left:0px; 
 bottom:0px; 
}

The size and position of the banner is managed by the interactive swatches component based on other styling applied with CSS and cannot be set explicitly.

The following CSS class selector controls the appearance of the banner panel:

.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches .s7banner

CSS properties of the appearance of the up and down scroll buttons

The button tool tips can be localized. See Localization of user interface elements for more information.

Example

To set up scroll up button that is 60 x 36 pixels, have different artwork for each state and takes that artwork from the component’s sprite image:

.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches .s7scrollupbutton { 
 background-size: 120px; 
 width: 60px; 
 height: 36px;  
} 
.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches .s7scrollupbutton[state] { 
 background-image: url(images/v2/InteractiveSwatches_light_sprite.png); 
} 
.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches .s7scrollupbutton[state='up'] { background-position: -60px -684px; } 
.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches .s7scrollupbutton[state='over'] { background-position: -0px -684px; } 
.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches .s7scrollupbutton[state='down'] { background-position: -60px -648px; } 
.s7interactivevideoviewer .s7interactiveswatches .s7scrollupbutton[state='disabled'] { background-position: -0px -648px; }
