Use the Fit scale to communicate how a product fits or stretches (for example: low, medium, or high stretch) or if it has a small or large fit. It appears at the top of the size chart tab and helps shoppers set expectations before reading the table.
Prerequisites
- SmartSize app installed and connected to your Shopify store
- A paid subscription (or be on a trial period)
Step 1: Open the Fit scale component
- In Shopify, go to Apps → SmartSize → Size charts and open a chart.
- In the components list, locate the section named Scale and expand it.
Step 2: Enable and label the scale
- Select Enable.
- Enter the Visible text shown next to the scale (for example, Stretch level).
- (Optional) Check Display info icon and add a short explanation that appears in a tooltip.
Step 3: Choose the fit level
Set the indicator to represent your product:
- Drag the slider to the appropriate position, or
- Give three different values to your scale. In this example: Low stretch, Medium stretch, or High stretch.
Use the Preview on the right to verify how it will look to shoppers.
Step 4: Save
Click Save in the top-right to publish your changes.
Expected Result
The size chart displays a labeled bar (for example, Stretch level) with three segments — Low stretch, Medium stretch, High stretch — and a marker indicating your selection. If you enabled the info icon, a small i appears next to the label with your tooltip text.
Additional Information
- The Fit scale is configured per tab; set it separately for each view if you use tabs.
- The label text is fully customizable (e.g., Fit, Compression, Stretch level).
- Unit conversion (IN/CM) does not affect the Fit scale.
- Keep the message short; 1–2 words for the label works best on mobile.
Troubleshooting
- Scale not visible: confirm Enable is selected and the chart/tab you edited is the one shown on the product page.
- Tooltip not showing: ensure Display info icon is checked and the text field is not empty.
