How to position a background image in reveal.js?


I want to have a background image on the right hand side of one slide in a reveal.js presentation.

I added the image to the slide like this:

 <section data-background="myImage.jpg">
  // content
 </section>

How can I add css styles to make it appear on the right edge of the screen?


Solution

  • This article helped to find the solution. You can add a style to the html element for the current section using

    data-state="something"
    

    and of course you can use that style for tweaking your css. So I used this html:

    <section data-background="myImage.jpg" data-state="img-right">
        // content
    </section>
    

    and the following css:

    html.img-right div.slide-background.present {
        background-position: right;
    }
