Javascript picture Transition [duplicate] - javascript

I want to make an HTML div tag fade in and fade out.
I have some code that fades out, but when I fade in, the opacity of the div stays at 0.1 and doesn't increase.

What am I doing wrong and what is the best way to fade in and fade out an element?

Here is a more efficient way of fading out an element:
function fade(element) {
var op = 1; // initial opacity
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op <= 0.1){
clearInterval(timer);
element.style.display = 'none';
}
element.style.opacity = op;
element.style.filter = 'alpha(opacity=' + op * 100 + ")";
op -= op * 0.1;
}, 50);
}
you can do the reverse for fade in
setInterval or setTimeout should not get a string as argument
google the evils of eval to know why
And here is a more efficient way of fading in an element.
function unfade(element) {
var op = 0.1; // initial opacity
element.style.display = 'block';
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op >= 1){
clearInterval(timer);
}
element.style.opacity = op;
element.style.filter = 'alpha(opacity=' + op * 100 + ")";
op += op * 0.1;
}, 10);
}

Here is a simplified running example of Seattle Ninja's solution.
var slideSource = document.getElementById('slideSource');
document.getElementById('handle').onclick = function () {
slideSource.classList.toggle('fade');
}
#slideSource {
opacity: 1;
transition: opacity 1s;
}
#slideSource.fade {
opacity: 0;
}
<button id="handle">Fade</button>
<div id="slideSource">Whatever you want here - images or text</div>

why do that to yourself?
jQuery:
$("#element").fadeOut();
$("#element").fadeIn();
I think that's easier.
www.jquery.com

Here's my attempt with Javascript and CSS3 animation
So the HTML:
<div id="handle">Fade</div>
<div id="slideSource">Whatever you want images or text here</div>
The CSS3 with transitions:
div#slideSource {
opacity:1;
-webkit-transition: opacity 3s;
-moz-transition: opacity 3s;
transition: opacity 3s;
}
div#slideSource.fade {
opacity:0;
}
The Javascript part. Check if the className exists, if it does then add the class and transitions.
document.getElementById('handle').onclick = function(){
if(slideSource.className){
document.getElementById('slideSource').className = '';
} else {
document.getElementById('slideSource').className = 'fade';
}
}
Just click and it will fade in and out. I would recommend using JQuery as Itai Sagi mentioned. I left out Opera and MS, so I would recommend using prefixr to add that in the css. This is my first time posting on stackoverflow but it should work fine.

Ok, I've worked it out
element.style.opacity = parseFloat(element.style.opacity) + 0.1;
Should be used instead of
element.style.opacity += 0.1;
Same with
element.style.opacity = parseFloat(element.style.opacity) - 0.1;
Instead of
element.style.opacity -= 0.1;
Because opacity value is stored as string, not as float. I'm still not sure though why the addition has worked.

I usually use these utility functions. element is the HTML element and duration is the desired duration in milliseconds.
export const fadeIn = (element, duration) => {
(function increment(value = 0) {
element.style.opacity = String(value);
if (element.style.opacity !== '1') {
setTimeout(() => {
increment(value + 0.1);
}, duration / 10);
}
})();
};
export const fadeOut = (element, duration) => {
(function decrement() {
(element.style.opacity -= 0.1) < 0 ? element.style.display = 'none' : setTimeout(() => {
decrement();
}, duration / 10);
})();
};

Heres my code for a fade in/out toggle functions.
fadeIn: function (len) {
var obj = this.e;
obj.style.display = '';
var op = 0;
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op >= 1 || op >= 1.0){
console.log('done', op)
clearInterval(timer);
}
obj.style.opacity = op.toFixed(1);
op += 0.1;
console.log(obj.style.opacity);
}, len);
return this;
},
fadeOut: function (len) {
var obj = this.e;
var op = 1;
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op <= 0){
clearInterval(timer);
console.log('done', op)
obj.style.display = 'none';
}
obj.style.opacity = op.toFixed(1);
op -= 0.1;
console.log(obj.style.opacity)
}, len);
return this;
},
This was from a jQuery style lib i did. hope it's helpfull. link to lib on cloud9:

I like Ibu's one but, I think I have a better solution using his idea.
//Fade In.
element.style.opacity = 0;
var Op1 = 0;
var Op2 = 1;
var foo1, foo2;
foo1 = setInterval(Timer1, 20);
function Timer1()
{
element.style.opacity = Op1;
Op1 = Op1 + .01;
console.log(Op1); //Option, but I recommend it for testing purposes.
if (Op1 > 1)
{
clearInterval(foo1);
foo2 = setInterval(Timer3, 20);
}
}
This solution uses a additional equation unlike Ibu's solution, which used a multiplicative equation. The way it works is it takes a time increment (t), an opacity increment (o), and a opacity limit (l) in the equation, which is: (T = time of fade in miliseconds) [T = (l/o)*t]. the "20" represents the time increments or intervals (t), the ".01" represents the opacity increments (o), and the 1 represents the opacity limit (l). When you plug the numbers in the equation you get 2000 milliseconds (or 2 seconds). Here is the console log:

Notice how the opacity follows the opacity increment amount of .01 just like in the code. If you use the code Ibu made,
//I made slight edits but keeped the ESSENTIAL stuff in it.
var op = 0.01; // initial opacity
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op >= 1){
clearInterval(timer);
}
element.style.opacity = op;
op += op * 0.1;
}, 20);
you will get these numbers (or something similar) in you console log. Here is what I got.

Notice that there is no discernible pattern. If you ran Ibu's code, you would never know how long the fade was. You would have to grab a timer and guess and check 2 seconds. Nonetheless, Ibu's code did make a pretty nice fade in (it probably works for fade out. I don't know because I didn't use a fade out yet). My code will also work for a fade out. Let's just say you wanted 2 seconds for a fade out. You can do that with my code. Here is how it would look:
//Fade out. (Continued from the fade in.
function Timer2()
{
element.style.opacity = Op2;
Op2 = Op2 - .01;
console.log(Op2); //Option, but I recommend it for testing purposes.
if (Op2 < 0)
{
clearInterval(foo2);
}
}
All I did was change the opacity to 1 (or fully opaque). I changed the opacity increment to -.01 so it would start turning invisible. Lastly, I changed the opacity limit to 0. When it hits the opacity limit, the timer will stop. Same as the last one, except it used 1 instead of 0. When you run the code, here is what the console log should relatively look like.

As you can see, the .01 pattern still exists in the fade out. Both fades are smooth and precise. I hope these codes helped you or gave you insight on the topic. If you have any additions or suggestions let me know. Thank you for taking the time to view this!

I think i get the problem :
Once you make the div fade out you aren't exiting the function : fadeout calls itself again over even after opacity has become 0
if(element.style.opacity < 0.0) {
return;
}
And do the same for fadein too

let count=0;
let text = document.getElementById('heading');
let btn = document.getElementById('btn');
btn.addEventListener('click', function(){
if(count%2==0){
text.style.opacity="0.1";
unfade(text);
text.innerText="Welcome to Javascript </>";
text.style.color="forestgreen";
}//end of if
else{ text.style.opacity="0.1";
unfade(text);
text.innerText="Hello javascript";
text.style.color="blueviolet";
}//end of else
count++;//for toggling the text
});
//function for fade effect--------
function unfade(element) {
var op = 0.1; // initial opacity
element.style.display = 'block';
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op >= 1){
clearInterval(timer);
}
element.style.opacity = op;
element.style.filter = 'alpha(opacity=' + op * 100 + ")";
op += op * 0.1;
}, 30);
}
<h1 style="color:blueviolet" id="heading">Hello javascript</h1>
<button id="btn">Click me</button>

The following javascript will fade in an element from opacity 0 to whatever the opacity value was at the time of calling fade in. You can also set the duration of the animation which is nice:
function fadeIn(element) {
var duration = 0.5;
var interval = 10;//ms
var op = 0.0;
var iop = element.style.opacity;
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op >= iop) {
op = iop;
clearInterval(timer);
}
element.style.opacity = op;
op += iop/((1000/interval)*duration);
}, interval);
}
*Based on IBUs answer but modified to account for previous opacity value and ability to set duration, also removed irrelevant CSS changes it was making

My answer is based on Gb01's answer (thank you!). I wanted to abstract out the logic so that we could simply pass an element to a function and have that element fade toggle, fade in, or fade out.
POD
To use the code below:
Elements that can be faded should be given the fadeable class.
Fade in/out with fadeInElement(element) and fadeOutElement(element).
Turn fade on/off with toggle, toggleElementFade(element).
Improvements Over Gb01's answer
Bug Fix: Gb01's answer only worked because id-based CSS rules take precedence over class-based CSS rules, and if you removed #slideSource from #slideSource.fade, it would cease to work.
Bug Fix: Gb01's answer provides for when you start with the element displayed. What if you want to start with it hidden? Completely different code is required
Code: Elements Begin Being Displayed
function fadeInElement(element) {
element.classList.remove('fade');
}
function fadeOutElement(element) {
element.classList.add('fade');
}
function toggleElementFade(element) {
element.classList.toggle('fade');
}
document.getElementById('fade-toggle').onclick = function () {
toggleElementFade(document.getElementsByClassName('fadeable')[0]);
}
document.getElementById('fade-in').onclick = function () {
fadeInElement(document.getElementsByClassName('fadeable')[0]);
}
document.getElementById('fade-out').onclick = function () {
fadeOutElement(document.getElementsByClassName('fadeable')[0]);
}
.fadeable {
opacity: 1;
transition: opacity 1s;
}
.fade {
opacity: 0 !important;
}
<button id="fade-toggle">Fade Toggle</button>
<button id="fade-in">Fade In</button>
<button id="fade-out">Fade Out</button>
<div class="fadeable">Whatever you want here - images or text</div>
Code: Elements Begin Being Hidden
function fadeInElement(element) {
element.style.removeProperty('display');
setTimeout(function() {
element.classList.remove('fade');
}, 10);
}
function fadeOutElement(element) {
element.classList.add('fade');
}
function toggleElementFade(element) {
element.style.removeProperty('display');
setTimeout(function() {
element.classList.toggle('fade');
}, 10);
}
document.getElementById('fade-toggle').onclick = function () {
toggleElementFade(document.getElementsByClassName('fadeable')[0]);
}
document.getElementById('fade-in').onclick = function () {
fadeInElement(document.getElementsByClassName('fadeable')[0]);
}
document.getElementById('fade-out').onclick = function () {
fadeOutElement(document.getElementsByClassName('fadeable')[0]);
}
.fadeable {
opacity: 1;
transition: opacity 1s;
}
.fade {
opacity: 0 !important;
}
<button id="fade-toggle">Fade Toggle</button>
<button id="fade-in">Fade In</button>
<button id="fade-out">Fade Out</button>
<div class="fadeable fade" style="display:none;">Whatever you want here - images or text</div>

That was actually quite simple .
for ex: if you are hiding the text or changing it's color .
document.getElementById('availabletoday').style.color = '#f4f6f7';
make a css property like this
#availabletoday{
transition: 1s;
}
depending upon your event listener when the JavaScript executes it will transition in 1s . really easy to change the delay .
Let me know if this helps

How to add a fade in and fade out effect to existing js code

Basically I have this code that hooks onto a certain element in the website and overrides it's content. In this example it's overriding existing text to make it change every so often. However when it cycles through the preset text lines it simply jumps without an animation. Is it possible to add a fade animation between the preset texts?
Here is the code:
var text = ["Question Everything!", "Envision the future!", "Change your perspective!"];
var counter = 0;
var elem = document.getElementById("slogantxt");
setInterval(change, 3500);
function change() {
elem.innerHTML = text[counter];
counter++;
if(counter >= text.length) { counter = 0; }
}
CSS3 #keyframes animations would be much lighter weight here.
#keyframes fadeOutIn {
0% {opacity: 1;}
50% {opacity: 0;}
100% {opacity: 1;}
}
.fadeOutIn {
animation-name: fadeOutIn;
animation-duration: 200ms;
}
And then simply remove and re-add the class when changing the inner HTML.
EDIT: for simplicity, I left out the necessary -webkit- prefixes. Don't forget!
With JS you can do like below
var text = ["Question Everything!", "Envision the future!", "Change your perspective!"];
var counter = 0;
var elem = document.getElementById("slogantxt");
setInterval(change, 3500);
function change() {
fade(elem,function(){
elem.innerHTML = text[counter];
unfade(elem);
});
counter++;
if(counter >= text.length) { counter = 0; }
}
function fade(element,cbk) {
var op = 1; // initial opacity
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op <= 0.1){
clearInterval(timer);
element.style.display = 'none';
cbk();
}
element.style.opacity = op;
element.style.filter = 'alpha(opacity=' + op * 100 + ")";
op -= op * 0.1;
}, 50);
}
function unfade(element) {
var op = 0.1; // initial opacity
element.style.display = 'block';
var timer = setInterval(function () {
if (op >= 1){
clearInterval(timer);
}
element.style.opacity = op;
element.style.filter = 'alpha(opacity=' + op * 100 + ")";
op += op * 0.1;
}, 10);
}
Ref: How to do fade-in and fade-out with JavaScript and CSS
With jQuery you could do something like this:
$(document).ready(function(){
var text = ["Question Everything!", "Envision the future!", "Change your perspective!"];
var counter = 0;
setInterval(change, 3500);
function change() {
$("#slogantxt").fadeOut('fast',function(){//fade out the element
$(this).html(text[counter]).fadeIn('fast');//once fade out completes, change the element text and fade it back in
});
counter++;
if(counter >= text.length) { counter = 0; }
}
});

Fade in element by setting opacity with Javascript

I have decided to create a fade in animation effect using vanilla javascript.
This is the code for my fade in effect:
document.querySelector('.open-1_1').onclick = function() {
document.getElementById('about-frame').style.display = 'block';
for (opacity = 0; opacity < 1.1; opacity = opacity + 0.1)
{
setTimeout(function(){document.getElementById('about').style.opacity = opacity;},100)
}
};
What I am trying to do is incrementally increasing the opacity of the #about div from 0 to 1 by running through a for loop which is supposed to wait 100 miliseconds for every iteration of the loop
However the #about div goes from dark to opacity 1 after a set time without seeing the fade in effect.
What is wrong with my logic?
This for loop is not on a delay, it sets ten timeouts to take place in 100 miliseconds.
for (opacity = 0; opacity < 1.1; opacity = opacity + 0.1)
{
setTimeout(function(){document.getElementById('about').style.opacity = opacity;},100)
}
So the fade only takes 1 ms.
This on the other hand loops the MyFadeFunction 10 times over a one second period, which is what you are asking for.
var opacity = 0;
function MyFadeFunction() {
if (opacity<1) {
opacity += .1;
setTimeout(function(){MyFadeFunction()},100);
}
document.getElementById('about').style.opacity = opacity;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/dL02zqku/1/
Note var opacity in this example and MyFadeFunction() are global, not nested within the startup function, but called via a function call. This is so that the jquery library being used to call the function is not held in a closure state.
I tried Mr.Wayne's code, it's beautifully written, but I was trying to fade a lot of things at the same time and I could see my browser slowing down using his code. After trying a few options I came up with this:
function fading(){
var increment = 0.045;
var opacity = 0;
var instance = window.setInterval(function() {
document.getElementById('about').style.opacity = opacity
opacity = opacity + increment;
if(opacity > 1){
window.clearInterval(instance);
}
},100)
}
fading();
You can check it out here on jsfiddle :
https://jsfiddle.net/b12yqo7v/
main = $('#main');
opacity = 0;
setOpacity(main) {
if (this.opacity > 1) {
main.css('opacity', 1);
return;
}
setTimeout(() => {
opacity += 0.2;
main.css('opacity', opacity);
setOpacity(main);
}, 100);
}
document.querySelector('.open-1_1').onclick = function () {
document.getElementById('about-frame').style.display = 'block';
const about = document.getElementById('about');
let fade = setInterval(() => {
about.style.opacity += .02; // 500 milliseconds
if (about.style.opacity >= 1) {
clearInterval(fade);
}
}, 10); // 100 iterations per second
};

JavaScript timing events with setTimeout()

I am trying to use seTimeout() to fade out and then back in a <div> element while the page is scrolling. fadeOut() works as intended but fadeIn() only ever gets to 0.1 opacity.
It seems as if the opacity of the <div> element is set to 0 constantly and when I call fade in, it only bumps it up to .1 before it is reset back to 0.. That's my theory at least and since I'm new to JS I am having issues figuring this out.
Code:
function fadeOut() {
console.log("fade out: " + document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity)
if(document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity > .11) {
document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity -= .1;
fadeDelay = setTimeout('fadeOut()',100);
} else {
document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity = 0;
console.log("stopped fade out.");
}
}
function fadeIn() {
console.log("fade in: " + document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity)
if(document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity < .9) {
document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity += .1;
fadeDelay = setTimeout('fadeIn()',100);
} else {
document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity = 1;
console.log("stopped fade in.");
}
}
This is a weird and uncommon way to fade a dom element. I'd recommend you to switch your approach using requestAnimationFrame or using pure css.
In this case, using css you be the quickest, lightest and easiest way of doing things. You would then have something like this:
CSS
#quotes {
-webkit-transition: opacity 0.5s ease-out;
transition: opacity 0.5s ease-out;
}
JS
var quotes = document.getElementById("quotes");
function fadeIn() {
quotes.style.opacity = 1;
}
function fadeOut() {
quotes.style.opacity = 0;
}
It's up to you to play with timings and curves to fit your needs.
style.opacity returns a string, += contacts the string instead of increasing the value
try this
function fadeIn() {
console.log("fade in: " + document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity)
var opacity = Number(document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity)
if(document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity < 0.9) {
document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity = opacity + 0.1;
fadeDelay = setTimeout('fadeIn()',100);
} else {
document.getElementById('quotes').style.opacity = 1;
console.log("stopped fade in.");
}
}

Javascript fade in/out not working properly

I am working on a little javascript gallery that displays a number of differenty images, and fades in and out. Unfortunately I can't seem to get the fade in properly working.
Can anybody tell me how to fix this?
This is my code so far:
//This goes in the head of the html file:
<script type="text/javascript">
var imageCount = 4;
var image = new Array(imageCount);
image [1] = "slideshow/testimg1.jpg"
image [2] = "slideshow/testimg2.jpg"
image [3] = "slideshow/testimg1.jpg"
image [4] = "slideshow/testimg2.jpg"
</script>
//This goes in the body of the html file
<img width="760" height="260" name="slide">
<script type="text/javascript">
var step = 1;
document.images.slide.style.opacity = 1;
function NextImage()
{
//Change image
document.images.slide.src = image [step];
//Change step
if (step < imageCount)
step++;
else
step = 1;
FadeIn();
}
function FadeIn()
{
if (document.images.slide.style.opacity < 1)
{
//Increase opacity
document.images.slide.style.opacity += 0.05;
setTimeout("FadeIn()", 20);
}
else
{
//Set opacity to 1, fade out
document.images.slide.style.opacity = 1;
setTimeout("FadeOut()", 4000);
}
}
function FadeOut()
{
if (document.images.slide.style.opacity > 0.05)
{
//Reduce opacity
document.images.slide.style.opacity -= 0.05;
setTimeout("FadeOut()", 20);
}
else
{
//Set opacity to 0.5, change the image
document.images.slide.style.opacity = 0.05;
NextImage();
}
}
NextImage();
</script>
The idea is that is swithes between the NextImage, FadeIn and FadeOut functions.
I have everything working except for the fades, because it whenever I test it it goes like this:
Load image, fade out, load second image, freeze.
I hope someone can help me with this.
Thanks in advance.
~Luca.
EDIT:
This fixed it:
//Increase opacity
var x = parseFloat(document.images.slide.style.opacity) + 0.05;
document.images.slide.style.opacity = x;
setTimeout(FadeIn, 20);
Thanks!
Change:
setTimeout("FadeIn()", 20);
to
setTimeout(FadeIn, 20);
and see if that helps (and the other setTimeout functions as well).
EDIT/Addition:
The document.images.slide.style.opacity += 0.05; is not actually incrementing. Try the following modification:
//Increase opacity
var x = parseFloat(document.images.slide.style.opacity);
x += 0.05;
document.images.slide.style.opacity = x;
setTimeout(FadeIn, 20);
Here's a working fiddle.
Actually wat is happening is the event stack where the set time out function saves the events to be executed after a particular interval is getting overflown :)

Delay and fade in text with Javascript?

There is a line in my page I want to delay 2 seconds and fade it in. Is there a way to do it without jQuery?
The site is
http://theclockpage.com/
And the text is the little line under the clock, the text is obtained through javascript that's why I don't add it to the question.
Thanks
var textCont = document.getElementById('clock').nextSibling;
textCont.style.opacity = 0;
setTimeout(function() {
var opacity = 0,
animate = setInterval(function() {
opacity += 0.05;
if (opacity >= 1) {
clearInterval(animate);
}
textCont.style.opacity = opacity;
}, 10);
}, 2000);
jsFiddle.
var d = document.getElementById("box");
function fadeOut(fadeScaler, hertz) {
if (!this instanceof Element) return false;
hertz = (!hertz) ? 60 : hertz; // Approx 60 hertz refresh rate
var opacity = this.style.opacity
opacity = "0";
var t = setInterval(
function() {
opacity = parseInt(opacity) + fadeScaler + '';
if (parseInt(opacity) >= 1)
clearInterval(t);
},
Math.floor(1000 / hertz)); // 1000 miliseconds / hertz = refresh rate
};
fadeOut.apply(d, [.05]);
Id use this one, Alex's function will not work. Opacity is a string and cannot be +='d with an integer.
