Image markers are a great way to showcase a product’s special features. In this post, we’ll show you how to create image markers using a text module and a vertical divider. Thanks to the transform settings inside the columns, an image marker can be placed anywhere you need it. To show you how versatile this technique is, we will show you two different design examples. You’ll be able to download the JSON file for free as well!
Let’s get to it!

Recreate Example #1
Let’s start recreating the first design example!
Add New Section
Add a new section to the page you’re working on. Before adding a row, adjust the section settings first.
Background
Add a gradient and then an image with a screen blend mode.
- Background: Gradient + Image
- Gradient Color 1: White #ffffff
- Gradient Color 2: Medium Grey #666666
- Gradient Start Position: 22%
- Background Image Blend: Screen
Spacing
Remove the default top and bottom padding of the section next.
- Top and Bottom Padding: 0vw
Visibility
Complete the section settings by hiding the section’s overflows.
- Vertical and Horizontal Overflow: Hidden
Add Row #1
Now, add a new row with three columns.
Before adding any modules adjust the row settings.
Sizing
First, adjust the sizing of the row.
- Use Custom Gutter Width: Yes
- Gutter Width: 1
- WIdth: 100%
- Max Width: 100%
Custom CSS
Next, add one single line of CSS code to the main element of the row. This will allow the columns to appear next to each other on smaller screen sizes as well.
- Main Element CSS: display: flex;
display: flex;
Column 1
Transform Translate
Apply a custom transform translate effect to the first column to reposition the column. This step will make sense once you add the image marker modules later on the post. If you’re using this technique on another design, you’ll need to change these values accordingly.
- Transform Translate: x-axis 2vw, y-axis 16vw
Z Index
Add a higher z index value to the visibility tab.
- Z Index: 10
Column 2
Transform Translate
Apply a transform translate effect to the second column.
- Transform Translate: x-axis -11vw, y-axis 6vw
Z Index
Increase the z index value.
- Z Index: 10
Column 3
Transform Translate
Modify the transform translate values of the third column.
- Transform Translate: x-axis -11vw, y-axis 8vw
Z Index
And change the z index value.
- Z Index: 10
Add Row #2
Before adding any modules to the first row, add a new one-column row. Do this before adding the image markers so you can see what is happening on the screen while designing.
Sizing
Change the sizing settings of the row.
- Use Custom Gutter Width: Yes
- Gutter Width: 1
- WIdth: 100%

That’s a Wrap!
In this post, we’ve shown you how to create two different image marker designs. We used the column options to keep the text columns and dividers together. We hope these designs will inspire you to create your own image marker designs. Remember to use the transform translate options inside the columns for better control of each image marker.
