We have built parallax backgrounds into the Vertex Framework. Parallax causes the background image of an element to scroll at a different speed than your browser. For an example of this view the homepage of the Velocity template here and watch the background of the top_row1 area as you scroll down the page. The new parallax feature is part of a new tab in Vertex called "Backgrounds", where you can control the background for many areas of your website.

Features:

• Set the scroll speed of the images
• Set background repeat style
• Set background image size, 100%, cover, contain, etc
• Set custom backgrounds for all s5 rows in the framework.
• Enable or disable parallax on a per row basis
