A holographic strip for launches and restocks. Picking a glow palette retunes the background, the text and the highlight together, so the strip can never be left half-recoloured, and a Custom palette hands the three colours back. The sheen and the loop are both CSS, and both hold still under reduced motion. This guide shows how to add the Announcement Bar 5 section to the Studio theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Studio's code. Studio is a free theme by Shopify, known for gallery grids and art-forward presentation — and announcement bars like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Announcement Bar 5 fits Studio

Marquees, tickers and rotating bars that push promotions, shipping thresholds and urgency without touching your theme. On Studio, Announcement Bar 5 slots in like any built-in section: it inherits the theme's fonts by default, picks up your color choices in the editor, and lives alongside Studio's own sections in the picker — prefixed "SShop:" so it's easy to spot.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Studio setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Announcement Bar 5” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Announcement Bars category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Studio theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Studio uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Studio theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Announcement Bar 5” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Studio font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Announcement Bar 5 work with the Studio theme?

Yes. Studio is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Announcement Bar 5 installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Studio's theme editor as “SShop:Announcement Bar 5”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Announcement Bar 5 match Studio's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Studio's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Announcement Bar 5 free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Announcement Bar 5 is free, like every section in the 164-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Studio theme and keeps working.
