# Partial Header image

 * The header background image is now displaying only partially. the image I am 
   using is meets the recommended dimensions at 1920×1236.
 * Strangely, this was working perfectly fine just minutes ago (with no changes 
   made). And even stranger – it is working perfectly fine when viewing in a mobile.
 * I did notice that if I edit the Call to Active to “show” (which it isn’t now)
   that more of the image shows.
 * I am using this on a home page/landing page – with a full sized image and site
   title and tag line showing
 * Appreciate any help. Thanks!

 * I just checked the site various screen resolutions and the problem is with the
   larger screens. Anything over 1024×768 the images’ height is smaller and smaller,
   with more padding around the width on larger screens.

 * Hi!
    A new version of the theme went live yesterday so perhaps you updated the
   theme? A lot of users had problems fitting their image, so the header image height
   was changed to fit the height of the content.
 * In the header background option in the customizer you should find image sizing
   and positioning, such as “cover”, “contain”, center top, center bottom and so
   on.
 * If that doesn’t help you achieve what you want, you can try the javascript that
   I used in version 1.9 of Aaron.
    _This is untested with version 2.1_
 *     ```
       //Set the header (hero unit) to full height
       jQuery(document).ready(function($){
       	var winHeight = $(window).height();
       	// set initial div height
       	$('.site-header').css({
       		'min-height': winHeight,
       	});
   
       	// make sure div stays full height on resize
       	$(window).resize(function(){
       	    $('.site-header').css({
       	    'min-height': winHeight,
       	});
       	});
       });
       ```

 * Thanks Carolina. I did try image sizing & positioning using customizer but that
   didn’t work. The height of the image changed very little. The only thing I could
   do, to give the image a bit more height (instead of cutting off almost 2/3s of
   the image) – I even tested it using the default image – was to include the “call
   for action” button (even though I really didn’t want to use it. This added more
   height.
 * I’d like to try your javascript solution but my knowledge of javascript is limited.
   Can you give me an idea of where/how I would put that into place.
 * Thanks so much
    Jackie

 * Ah, yes, you can put it at the bottom of either navigation.js
    or skip-link-focus-
   fix.js. Both files are in the js folder.
