How to resize a image banner?

Topic summary

Goal: make a specific banner thinner in the Shopify Dawn theme.

What happened:

  • Suggestion provided: in Theme Editor (Online Store > Customize), open the Image banner section and adjust the banner image height setting.
  • Update from requester: that setting isn’t available because the element is a Slideshow section, not an Image banner.

Context/terms:

  • Dawn is a Shopify theme. “Image banner” and “Slideshow” are different theme sections with different settings in the Theme Editor.

Current status:

  • Unresolved. The proposed fix applies to Image banner sections, but the user needs a Slideshow-specific method (either a height option within the Slideshow settings or a code/CSS change) which wasn’t provided.

Notes:

  • Screenshots were shared and are central to understanding the visual issue.

Next steps implied:

  • Check Slideshow section settings for height controls or request code/CSS guidance to limit slideshow height for that specific section.
