   If you add the Decorated Product Listing Widget to a custom dropdown menu, the Show as Link(s) in Mobile Menu option will be available. When enabled, this option will generate matching links for the content placed in the custom dropdown menu that will be rendered as a simple list of links on the site's mobile menu.

   

2. Select from one of the pre-configured Product Listing Layout options:
   • Grid: image thumbnails maintain their aspect ratio and are displayed in the center of each cell in a uniform grid arrangement.
   • Masonry: image thumbnails are resized to have the same width while maintaining their aspect ratio and arranged to form equal columns. Images are placed in optimal positions based on available vertical space.
   • Collage: image thumbnails maintain their aspect ratio, but are cropped and placed in a pre-defined pattern arrangement of a specified number of items per row. You can set a 3,4,5, or 6-image pattern per row. Each row will use one of 4 pattern variations. If the last row has fewer items than necessary then the images will be arranged in a layout to ensure that all space is used on the final row.
   • Carousel: rotates the image thumbnails radially and in a 3D feel by using distance and depth of field. The image thumbnails rotate on an axis where the image is always facing you.
   • Stacked: image thumbnails maintain their aspect ratio and are displayed in a single column.
3. Configure the rest of the design options for the Product Listing Widget.

   The settings will vary depending on the layout selected.

   • Thumbnail size: lets you set the dimensions of the product thumbnails. You can choose a preset size or choose Custom Size to specify a custom size.

     The following fields will be displayed when you select Custom Size:

     • Thumbnail Width: lets you specify the width of the product image thumbnail in pixels.
     • Thumbnail Height: lets you specify the width of the product image thumbnail in pixels.

       The maximum allowable thumbnail width and height is 600px. If a value higher than 600 is entered, the value will be automatically reset to 600. This is to prevent blurry thumbnail images caused by upscaling of the decorated product mockup images since they are generated at a maximum size of 600x600 pixels at the time of upload.

     You can configure the container properties of the product thumbnails by clicking on the brush icon beside the Thumbnail Size field. The Thumbnail Properties popup will be displayed.

     
     • Background Color: lets you specify the background fill color of the product thumbnail.
     • Border Width: lets you specify the line thickness of the product thumbnail's border in pixels. Enter a value between 0 and 20.

     • Border Radius: lets you specify the roundness of the corners of the product thumbnail's border in pixels. Enter a value between 0 and 100.
   • Use Higher Resolution on Retina Displays: when checked, will double the pixel density of the images to increase the clarity of the image for retina displays.

     Retina displays have 4 times more pixels than standard screens. So, if you have a 600 x 600 pixel image, you would need a 1200 x 1200 pixel image to render smoothly on a high-density retina display. This setting will do this for you.

   • Crop Thumbnail: crops the product image thumbnail to square when the checkbox is ticked. Leaves the image in its original shape when the checkbox is unticked.
   • Image Effects: lets you apply filter and transform effects to the product images.
