metrics	width: 0, height: 0	width: x, height: y	This sets a ratio for your slider, so it will stay the same ratio when it grows or shrinks. This is important if you need your slider to be responsive and if you use only content on your slides and no filling objects like images. The easiest method is to set it to the dimensions your slider has at it's biggest size.

Advanced js options

Option	Default	Options	Description
background_center	false	true false	Uses the background image (class='bg') as css background for the slide. The images gets centered and scaled to show the best result. Basically it looks like a normal slide but the image isn't clickable. This can be used as a very basic method to prevent your images to be stolen.
thumbnails	false	true false	Turns thumbnail support on and off. See more at Thumbnails.
thumb_bg	false	true false	If this option is enabled the bullets will be given a css background instead of an image tag. Works only if the thumbnails option is enabled.
solidHeight	false	true false	Use only with metrics option. Your slider will stay at the same height during resizing.
responsive_images	false	true false	Use different images (different sizes of the same image) for different sizes of the slider. This reduces traffic and is usefull for responsive design. All other responsive options must be set. How to use it
responsive_break_tablet	481	integer	This sets the windows width where the slider switches from the tablet image to the mobile image. Use the last value where the tablet view is still active. So if the mobile view ranges from 480 - 0, use 481.
responsive_break_desktop	1024	integer	This sets the windows width where the slider switches from the desktop image to the tablet image. The method how to choose the correct value is described above.
linkable	false	true false	Activates specific urls for each slide. See more at Linkable.
