To do this, add the Gallery Listing widget on the page, after selecting the appropriate listing style, select **Carousel** from the **Layout** dropdown under the **Layout** tab.

Scroll down, turn on the **Center Mode** toggle, and adjust the **Center Padding**.

> *Note: Center mode is only available for desktop view only.*

This will create the half cut image effect in the slider.

You can add scale or shadow effects from the **Center Slide Effects** dropdown to highlight the active image slide.

To adjust the number of columns in the slider, use the **Desktop Column** dropdown.

> *Note: Make sure to select odd column numbers to keep the active slide centered.*
