Extend description panel on Image Effect CK

Is it possible to extend the description panel on hover to accommodate a longer description and then have it shrink back when not on hover?

Hi
Sorry but I don't understand your request,do you have an example ?

I don't have an example I'm afraid but will try and explain in a little better detail

Currently the panel size adapts to the height of the image displayed however on :hover (when the panel flips to show the description) the space allowed for the description is still limited to the height of the image.

As a result, if the description required has too many characters and extends past the size of the panel it runs off the bottom of the panel and isn't displayed (this becomes even more apparent on mobile devices)

I was wondering if it was possible for the panel to extend in height to accommodate the full description (ideally with a smooth css transition) when the image is hovered (flips to show description) and then shrink back to the height of the image when the cursor is moved away?

ok, you can not extend the area on hover from the plugin options
you can use your own css rules to do that, or just give a min height to your images so that you will always have the correct height

Is it possible just to target the ":hover" panel height through the css?

imgeffect { height:300px;}

imgeffect:hover { height:600px;}

yes, you can find it in your browser console, and in the plugin css file
