Squares appear in the wake of the pointer, each one showing its own part of the picture a bit closer: a trail of small lenses. The quicker the hand, the further they reach. Where the pointer rests, they fade.

It looks like a sparkle made of pieces of the picture itself, which is why it suits things with a lot of small detail.

Pro

Comes with Pro. Pro starts at $19 a year.

Put it on

Sequins, gems, mosaics
The trail glitters with parts of the product and adds no fake sparkle.
Graphic prints
The fragments make new compositions as you go.
Pages for people with time
It invites playing, and it is best when the visitor is not in a hurry.

Keep it off

Precise product checks
You cannot inspect through it. Use magnify for that job.
Faces
Rectangular chunks moving across a face are hard to like.

Settings

In the block, the Pointer panel has two sliders, Size and Strength, from 0 to 100, with 50 at these defaults.

In the block, in three steps

  1. Add the Product Slider block to your page, and under Products choose best sellers.
  2. Open the Pointer panel in the sidebar, and pick Cells as the effect. It comes with Pro.
  3. Move slowly, then fast. A slow pointer should barely show cells. If it does, lower the reach.
