See Common collection properties for details of common properties shared by different all collection types

Container & Content

• Style: provides the list of currently available collection styles. Select another collection style to display your content in a different way.

Collection Appearance

• Display loading images: shows the loading indicator set by the experience property

Appearance

• Index in focus: specify which item in the collection should have focus
• Show curtain shadows: generates a shadow effect on the left and right-hand side of the Swap collection container
• Show icons: displays "asset type" identification icons on the assets in the Swap collection

Behavior

• Transition: visual effect to use when moving from one item in the collection to another
• Allow scroll:  Specify whether a tap or swipe of the item in focus should cause the collection to move to the next or previous item. Even if "Allow scroll" is disabled, the collection controls - if visible - can still be used to manually navigate through the collection.
  If selected, two additional properties appear
  • Tap item to flip: Toggle if Swap collection should move to the previous / next item if tapped on the left / right side of the item in focus.
  • Swipe item to flip: Toggle if the Swap collection should move to the previous / next item if swiped to the right / left.
• Scroll by: defines the number of items scrolled when the scroll arrows are tapped
• Initial scroll effect: reminds users that the collection is scrollable each time the scene is displayed
• Soft move speed: defines the soft move speed when items are scrolled horizontally or vertically
• Allow interaction with item: toggle whether or not an item can be interacted with. For example, if this property is turned on, touching a video in a collection can cause the video to play.
  • Show usage animation: toggles whether or not to display a graphic illustrating how to interact with this collection
• Tap item to open: toggle whether or not a touch on an item will cause a copy of that item to open outside of its parent collection. NOTE: If Tap item to open and Allow scroll are both selected, then Tap item to open requires a touch in the center of the visible Swap collection item. Touches on the left and right side of the Swap collection would cause the collection to move to the previous/next item.
• Drag and drop item to open: toggle whether or not a drag-and-drop action on an item will cause a copy of that item to open outside of the Swap collection.
• Resize ratio for opened item: identify the size multiple of an opened item in comparison to its size while inside the collection. A ratio of 1 means don't change the size, a ratio of 2 means double the size, a ratio of 0.5 means reduce the size in half, and so on.
