The Color Fan section lets you display a product or image with a fan-style set of color shades behind it. This section is useful for beauty, cosmetics, skincare, fashion, paint, fabric, or any product line that needs to show multiple shades or color options visually.
The section can display:
- A main product or image
- Multiple shade cards behind the image
- Solid color shades
- Image-based shades, such as texture or variant shots
- A hover ring effect
- A fan-out animation
- Heading and subheading content
STEPS:

The section can be added to most page templates, but it is not designed for the Header, Footer, or Overlay groups.
2. Configure the Main Content
The main content controls the heading, subheading, product, and image shown in the center of the fan.

| Image size | Controls the desktop image size. |
If both Product and Image are used, the uploaded Image is displayed, while the selected Product is used as the link.
If Image is empty and Product is selected, the section can use the product image automatically.
3. Configure Fan Style and Interaction

4. Add Shade Blocks
Each Shade block represents one color or image in the fan.
The section supports up to 12 Shade blocks.
Shade block settings:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Color | Sets the shade card color. |
| Image | Replaces the solid color with an image, such as a texture or variant shot. |

- Add a Label if needed.
- Repeat for each shade.

If a Shade block has an image, the image is used instead of the solid color.
5. Configure Highlight and Spacing
The section supports highlight styling for the heading and subheading.
| Setting | Description |

| Highlight style | Selects the highlight effect. |
| Show divider | Adds a divider above the section. |

6. Notes and Limitations
Please note the following behavior:
- The section needs at least one Shade block to display the fan.
- The section supports up to 12 Shade blocks.
- A Shade block can use either a solid color or an image.
- If a Shade image is selected, it replaces the solid color for that shade.
- A transparent PNG works best for the main image.
- The Product setting can link the fan to the selected product.
- If no custom image is uploaded, the selected product image can be used.
- The Hand fan style is better when you want each shade to stay clearly visible.
- The On hover fan-out behavior applies mainly to desktop. Phones fan out when the section is in view.
- This section is visual only. It does not control product variants, inventory, or swatches.
