Swatch Enlarge on Hover

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I found this website where I really like the way they handle the swatch options for fabrics.

Here is an example page. www.thrivefurniture.com/sullivan-bench/

When you hover over a swatch, a little pop-up appears that has an 
enlargement of the swatch.  If you click it, then it is selected.  In 
ProductCart, if you select a swatch, yes, it is selected, but it would 
be much better to also have the enlargement.  I don't like the size 
popup solution, that is really clucky.  Any thoughts?

Also, does anyone know or guess what shopping cart software they are 
using?  I just don't recognize it, and the source code is giving me no 
clues.  I am thinking either wordpress + zencart, but I have no idea.

	Vis a vis ProductCart, are you referencing Apparel add-on version or Standard version? We're been working on this, but either way there are a lot of complicated issues to sort out.

	Hi Curt, We're just wrapping a plugin to make PC look/behave like they handle it on Gap.com (e.g. http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=11889&vid=1&pid=311963&scid=311963022). This doesn't enlarge the swatch image, but rather the product image associated with it (same as PC does now, but with button as options rather than select element options or radio buttons as options). Just wanted to leave this here for the record, but will get back to your email on this.
