Your story cover now has a refreshed set of options so you can get the perfect look. These options change depending on what story layout you are using.

## Overlay Layout Options

-   **Hide or show the the dark overlay for your cover photo or video**. This may cause contrast issues so please keep that in mind for your readers.
-   **Hide or show the title and subtitle of your story**, please note that this only shows as hidden when you preview your story. Not while editing.

## Overlay, Two Fold and Simple Layout Options

-   Your cover photo position can be changed to focus on the center, top, bottom, left or right focal points of the photo.
-   Hide or show your author avatar
-   Hide or show the publish date of your story. You can also hide all publish dates if you wish. [Learn how here](<https://support.exposure.co/en/articles/3688942-hide-all-publish-dates/>).

The Cover Design Options icon is located in the bottom right of your cover area while in edit mode.
