Ecommerce Smart Variant Visuals Control
Manage attribute visuals and per-variant images directly from the product form - no navigation away required
- "Variant Visuals" tab directly on the product form - auto-hidden for products without visual attributes
- Attribute Visual Wizard - set HTML color and/or image per attribute value (e.g. color chips, texture swatches)
- Auto-generate color swatch - creates a solid-color PNG from a hex code automatically (requires Pillow)
- Variant Image Wizard - assign a unique main image to every variant combination
- Live visual previews inside both wizards - see existing image or color before editing
- Enhanced frontend swatches - polished hover & selected states for color and image selectors on the website
- Zero extra navigation - everything is reachable without leaving the product form
The module adds a Variant Visuals tab to the Odoo product form and introduces two popup wizards for visual management:
Step 1 - Attribute Selector Thumbnails
Open any product whose attributes have Display Type set to Color or Image.
The new tab appears automatically. Click Edit Visuals next to an attribute line to open the
Attribute Visual Wizard. For each attribute value you can set an HTML hex color, upload an image,
or check Auto-generate to create a solid-color PNG from the hex code with one click.
These visuals drive the selection buttons (swatches) shown on the product page.
Step 2 - Per-Variant Main Image
Click Assign Images to Variants in Section 2 of the same tab.
The Variant Image Wizard lists every combination (e.g. Color: Blue | Size: L)
with its current image thumbnail. Upload a new image per row, or tick Delete to clear one.
When a customer selects that exact combination on the website, Odoo automatically swaps the main product
photo to the matching variant image.
Step 3 - Enhanced Website Swatches (automatic)
No configuration needed. The module ships custom SCSS that upgrades color and image swatches on the
eCommerce frontend: larger hit areas, smooth hover scaling, and a clear blue border/glow for the
selected state.

- Copy the
ecom_smart_variant_visualsfolder into your Odoo addons directory. - In Odoo go to Settings â Apps â Update Apps List.
- Search for "eCommerce Smart Variant Visuals - Variant Images & Colors" and click Install.
- (Optional) Install Pillow for auto-generate color swatches:
pip install Pillow
No additional configuration is needed - the module activates automatically on installation.
Go to Sales â Configuration â Attributes. For each attribute you want to show visually, set Display Type to Color or Image.
The tab appears automatically on any product that has at least one visual attribute. It is hidden otherwise.
Click Edit Visuals on an attribute row. In the wizard, set an HTML hex color (e.g.
#3D85C8), upload an image/texture, or check Auto-generate to create a PNG from the color automatically. Click Apply.
Click Assign Images to Variants. Upload a photo for each combination row. Tick Delete to clear an existing image. Click Apply Images.
Visit the product page. Color and image swatches now display the visuals you configured. Selecting a combination swaps the main product photo to the matching variant image in real time.
Q: Does the module work without Pillow installed?
Yes. All features work normally. The only limitation is that the Auto-generate checkbox in the Attribute Visual Wizard will have no effect - a warning is logged on startup.
Q: The "Variant Visuals" tab is not visible on my product. Why?
The tab is intentionally hidden when no attribute has its Display Type set to Color or Image. Check your attribute configuration first.
