Im looking forward to it. For clarification: are you implementing a container element (div? span?) for each overlay to permit each instance of "views-slideshow-xtra-overlay-views_slideshow_xtra_example-block_n" to be themed individually?

Yes there will be a containing div for each overlay that you can target with CSS to change font colors, background, position, etc.

I just created views_slideshow_xtra 7.x-3.1-alpha6, which fixes the main bug causing multiple overlay attachments to not work, which was that the element id was the same for each of the div overlay containers.

I tested the new release by enabling the views_slideshow_xtra_overlay and views_slideshow_xtra_example modules, and following the instructions for creating an example slideshow in the views_slideshow_xtra_example README.txt. This example has two overlays, one a title, and the other an edit link. But the edit link does not work, probably due to a z-index issue.

So, there are still some issues with z-index and CSS, but the multiple attachments basically work.

I would appreciate it if you could give it a try and let me know what issues you have.

Thanks,

i will re-test the overlays mods over next couple of days and give feedback... i have not retested the slide speed, but this is a minor issue (moreso as I can set it under Slideshow main module) so I will take your word its working ok...
