How can I hide specific variant images in my product listings?

Hi, I am very new to this and learning as I do.

Using SUPPLY THEME and RELENTLESS APP

  • We have a lot of variants, more than the 100 so have added Relentless App to help with this.
  • We sell the product- aluminum privacy screens.
  • It comes in 6 standard sizes- mandatory selection for purchase
  • has 16 colour choices with photo sample references -mandatory selection for purchase
  • 3 accessory options each with multiple variables -not mandatory for purchase but popular addons

I was able to build what I need for my shop with all the variables but need help with the photos. I uploaded product images and colour sample photos into my media. (see photo 1 for reference)

I then added the colour sample photos as “thumbnails” in my variant which I would ideally like to keep. (see photo 2 for reference)

My problem: when I go to the shop view/customer view… all of my photos in each listing are visible to the customer including the colour sample variants. (photo 3)

What I would like to achieve: I want the thumbnail colour variant photo to only be visible when attached to the colour selection option.

I do not want the colour variant thumbnails visible with the product images. (photo 3)

  1. Is there a way to hide these images from the listing ?

  2. Is there a way to change my listing thumbnail to a product image as opposed to the first colour selection?
