I managed to achieve this animation through CSS animations and React. but go stuck in flickering problem. I don't know why this is happening maybe 'cause I used setInterval or there is some problem with my css animations keyframes. help me to solve this problem. the flicker only occurs after some time. and after refreshing the page the animation works perfectly fine without flicker problem.
this is how the animation looks after refreshing the page and this is what I want too. (ignore the screen recorder watermark).
animation I want
but after sometime the animation starts flickering like this.
Flickering problem
here are the code snippets I wrote
jsx snippet
<div className="relative w-[280px] md:w-[350px] lg:w-[500px]">
<span>{"[ "}</span>
<p className="text_animate ml-2">
{dev ? "for" : "by"} Developers
</p>
<span className="absolute right-0 ">{" ]"}</span>
</div>
css snippet
.text_animate {
color: orange;
margin: 0 auto;
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
letter-spacing: .15em;
text-align: start;
animation: text-up 6s linear infinite;
cursor: none;
}
#keyframes text-up {
0% {
top:45px;
opacity: 0;
}
20% {
top:0;
opacity: 1;
}
35% {
top: 0;
opacity: 1;
}
50% {
top: -45px;
opacity: 0;
}
52% {
top: 45px;
opacity: 0;
}
70% {
top: 0;
opacity: 1;
}
85% {
top: 0;
opacity: 1;
}
100% {
top: -45px;
opacity: 0;
}
}
useState changing text
const [dev, setDev] = useState(true);
setInterval(() => {
setDev(!dev);
}, 3000);
If there is any better way to achieve this I would really love to learn so let me know that too.
Maybe you should put setInterval to useEffect, and remember to clear timer. Like this:
useEffect(() => {
const timer = setInterval(() => {
setDev(!dev);
}, 3000);
return () => {
clearInterval(timer);
}
}, []);
And there is a solution only using css to implement this, I will write a demo later.
EDIT:
Explain the above code:
useEffect with [] as second param will make sure run setInterval once when mount the component.
The clearInterval in return function will make sure engine GC the variables in setInterval callback functions when unmount the component, or the setInterval will still work even though you needn't it.
CSS only solution:
ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
}
li {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.scroll-container {
overflow: hidden;
height: calc(var(--line-h) * 1px);
line-height: calc(var(--line-h) * 1px);
font-size: 18px;
}
.scroll-container ul {
animation-name: move;
animation-duration: calc(var(--speed) * var(--lines));
animation-timing-function: steps(var(--lines));
animation-iteration-count: infinite;
}
.scroll-container ul li {
animation-name: li-move;
animation-duration: var(--speed);
animation-iteration-count: infinite;
}
#keyframes move {
0% {
transform: translate(0, 0);
}
100% {
transform: translate(0, calc(var(--lines) * var(--line-h) * -1px));
}
}
#keyframes li-move {
0% {
transform: translate(0, 0);
}
50%,
100% {
transform: translate(0, calc(var(--line-h) * -1px));
}
}
<div
class="scroll-container"
style="--lines: 2; --line-h: 26; --speed: 3s"
>
<ul>
<li>For Developers</li>
<li>By Developers</li>
<!-- repeat first in tail for infinity -->
<li>For Developers</li>
</ul>
</div>
I leaned this from Chokcoco on CodePen but forget which post.
I am working on solution
I have created a basic html banner where I want to keep image and text animations in sync.
Basically image animation is like scale logo for about 3 seconds, meanwhile logo is animated I want text for same in typing effect
I have created basic solution using css and javascript but it is not in sync
var typewriter = function(txt) {
var container = document.getElementById('typewriter'),
speed = 28,
i = 0,
wordsObj = txt.split(" ")
container.textContent = "";
runAllWords();
function runAllWords() {
if (i < wordsObj.length) {
var a = (i == 0) ? i : i - 1;
setTimeout(function() {
showWord(wordsObj[i], 0)
}, wordsObj[a].length * speed);
}
}
function showWord(word, countWord) {
if (countWord < word.length) {
setTimeout(function() {
showLetter(word, countWord)
}, speed);
} else {
container.textContent = container.textContent + " ";
i += 1;
runAllWords();
}
if (i === wordsObj.length) {
console.log('complete')
}
}
function showLetter(word, countWord) {
container.textContent = container.textContent + word[countWord];
showWord(word, countWord + 1);
}
}
var i = 0;
function myLoop() {
// create a loop function
var dataType = document.getElementById('typewriter').dataset.typewriter,
w = dataType.split(',')
setTimeout(function() { // call a 3s setTimeout when the loop is called
typewriter(w[i]); // your code here
i++; // increment the counter
if (i < w.length) { // if the counter < 10, call the loop function
myLoop(); // .. again which will trigger another
} // .. setTimeout()
}, 3000)
}
myLoop();

Mathematically speaking, sinking means adjusting frequency and phase. I'll demonstrate each separately. Note that what I'm gonna explain is the concept and you can implement it in your codes using Javascript, css, etc
Frequency
You can't sink two animations unless the longer duration is a factor
of shorter duration.
For example in your codes, blinking has a duration of 1s. So your image scaling duration and Also the whole duration must be a selection of either 1s, 2s, 3s, ... or 1/2s, 1/3s, ...
For better understanding let me make a simple example. Assume two images want to be animated.
<img src="1.png" id="img1">
<img src="1.png" style="margin-left: 50px;" id="img2">
Consider two different animations for each one
#keyframes k1
{
25%
{
transform: rotate(-4deg);
}
50%
{
transform: rotate(0deg);
}
75%
{
transform: rotate(3deg);
}
100%
{
transform: rotate(0deg);
}
}
#keyframes k2
{
50%
{
transform: scale(1.2);
}
100%
{
transform: scale(1);
}
}
So since k2 is simpler, I'll first assign it to img2 with duration of 0.7s
#img2
{
animation: k2 0.7s linear infinite;
}
And based on what was explained, I will assign animation k1 to img1 with a duration of 1.4s. (NOT 1.3s NOT 1.5s VERY IMPORTANT!)
#img1
{
animation: k1 1.4s linear infinite;
}
If you run this code you'll see they are sink! To feel the concept better, change the duration of k1 to 0.9s. Now it feels like they are doing their thing separately!
Note
I set k1 to 1.4s (0.7s × 2) because k1 seems to be a combination of one go forward and come back and using 2x feels they are dancing together with the same harmony!
Phase
In css, phase is showed by animation-delay. Modifying frequencies (duration) is enough to sink two animations but if two animation begin at the same time it will feel better! So to illustrate set a delay for img1 of 0.2s. They are still sink but it doesn't feel nice! Now change the delay to 0.7s. Now it's beautiful again! (Maybe even more beautiful)
Back to your code
Your images scale with duration of 1.2s (40% of 3s) and your text blinking duration is 1s and as you can see they are not factor of each other so you can't sink!
I think you might be looking for the animation iteration event and the animation start event.
Instead of just using the myLoop function to call itself, try using these listeners to call it instead.
The end of your js file would look like:
var i = 0;
function myLoop() {
var dataType = document.getElementById("typewriter").dataset.typewriter,
w = dataType.split(",");
if (i < w.length -1 ) {
typewriter(w[i]);
}
i++;
}
var imageElems = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.addsp_320x50_img'));
imageElems.forEach(elem=>{
elem.addEventListener('animationstart',myLoop);
});
Where ".addsp_320x50_img" is just whatever common selector you give to all the images.
If you control the animation with the same JavaScript loop as the typewriter script, it won't lose sync. I rewrote the typewriter script to do this in the snippet below.
startTypewriter() Exaplaination
First, all the messages from the are collected converted into an array.
typewriter.getAttribute('data-typewriter').split(',');
Then the CSS icon animation is started. Because JavaScript intervals wait for their duration before executing their code, so the first message is typed by calling type() before the interval is created.
icon.classList.add('icon-animation');
type(typewriter, messages[0].trim(), animationDuration - pauseDuration);
The interval is now started, running every 3 seconds by default. The first thing that happens is the animation is reset in case it got out of sync somehow.
icon.classList.remove('icon-animation');
window.setTimeout(function() {
icon.classList.add('icon-animation');
}, 25);
Next, the message is typed by calling type(). Before it ends, a check is run so see if it's on the last array element. If so, it will start over.
if (i == messages.length) i = 0;
type() Exaplaination
At the start, the timePerCharacter value is calculated. The message is split to an array and the typewriter output is cleared
var timePerCharacter = duration / message.length;
var message = message.split('');
typewriter.innerHTML = '';
A loop is created, running every timePerCharacter. The character is outputted to the typewriter output.
typewriter.innerHTML += message[i];
Once all the characters are outputted, the loop is cleared
if (i == message.length) clearInterval(typeLoop);
Snippent
var animationDuration = 3000;
var pauseDuration = 2000;
startTypewriter();
function startTypewriter() {
var typewriter = document.getElementById('typewriter');
var icon = document.getElementById('icon');
var messages = typewriter.getAttribute('data-typewriter').split(',');
icon.classList.add('icon-animation');
type(typewriter, messages[0].trim(), animationDuration - pauseDuration);
var i = 1;
window.setInterval(function() {
icon.classList.remove('icon-animation');
window.setTimeout(function() {
icon.classList.add('icon-animation');
}, 25);
type(typewriter, messages[i].trim(), animationDuration - pauseDuration);
i++;
if (i == messages.length) i = 0;
}, animationDuration);
}
function type(typewriter, message, duration) {
var timePerCharacter = duration / message.length;
var message = message.split('');
typewriter.innerHTML = '';
var i = 0;
var typeLoop = window.setInterval(function() {
typewriter.innerHTML += message[i];
i++;
if (i == message.length) clearInterval(typeLoop);
}, timePerCharacter);
}

I'm trying to make some animations compatible with older version of Chrome, specifically 37.0.2062.94 (which is used inside of OBS - a streaming/recording software).
On newer versions of Chrome, everything works great. However, on these older versions, the animation fades in, but the reverse animation does not work. Perhaps animation-direction: reverse? I have tried vendor prefixes etc. as best as I can.
So I'd like to either:
1) Make this method work inside of old Chrome with the CSS animation
or
2) Use JQuery to simulate a fade out effect, making sure it is compatible with older versions of Chrome
Here is a link to the JSFiddle.
HTML
<div id="container">
<div id="one" class="box"></div>
<div id="two" class="box"></div>
<div id="three" class="box"></div>
<div id="four" class="box"></div>
</div>
CSS
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#one {
background: black;
}
#two {
background: blue;
}
#three {
background: green;
}
#four {
background: red;
}
.box {
margin: 10px;
}
.box.animate {
animation: box .4s ease-in;
-webkit-animation: box .4s ease-in;
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
display: block;
}
.box.animate.reverse {
animation-direction: reverse;
-webkit-animation-direction: reverse;
}
#keyframes box {
0% {
opacity: 0;
transform: translate(-10px,-10px);
}
100% {
opacity: 1;
transform: translate(0px,0px);
}
}
#-webkit-keyframes box {
0% {
opacity: 0;
-webkit-transform: translate(-10px,-10px);
}
100% {
opacity: 1;
-webkit-transform: translate(0px,0px);
}
}
JS
var $boxes = $('.box');
(function animateBox(i) {
$boxes.eq(i).addClass('animate').one('animationend', function () {
setTimeout(function () {
$(this).hide().show(0).addClass('reverse').one('animationend', function () {
$(this).removeClass('animate');
if(++i < $boxes.length) setTimeout(animateBox, 1000, i); // pause between animations
});
}.bind(this), 2000); // how long animation stays on
});
})(0);
So, I have created a CSS3 animation that is supposed to fade out an element by setting its opacity from 1 to 0 and at the last frames change the position to absolute and display to none. But on Safari it will only maintain the opacity, position and display are not set to the final values.
#-webkit-keyframes impressum-fade-out {
0% {
opacity: 1;
display: block;
position: relative;
}
99% {
opacity: 0;
position: relative;
}
100% {
opacity: 0;
display: none;
position: absolute;
}
}
It seems to work on Chrome but not on Safari (I tried version 8). Apparently, position and display do not work properly with animation-fill-mode: forwards...
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/uhtL12gv/
EDIT For Bounty: I am aware of workarounds with Javascript and transitionend events. But I am wondering why Browsers lack support for this? Does the specification state that fillmode forwards doesnt apply to some attributes like position or is this a bug in the browsers? Because I couldnt find anything in the bug trackers.. If anybody has some insight, I would really appreciate it
As Suggested in the comments, you can adjust the height.

I would suggest you the cross-browser solution based on CSS3 Transitions and transitionend event:
JSFiddle
$('.block').one('click', function() {
var $this = $(this);
$this.one('webkitTransitionEnd transitionend', function() {
$this.addClass('block_hidden');
$this.removeClass('block_transition');
});
$this.addClass('block_transition');
});
.block {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background: blue;
-webkit-transition: opacity 0.5s;
transition: opacity 0.5s;
}
.block_2 {
background: red;
}
.block_transition {
opacity: 0;
}
.block_hidden {
display: none;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="block"></div>
<div class="block block_2"></div>
I am trying to animate a div element (slide and fade) with a button click. At first, the element is not visible to a user. When the button is clicked, it will slide to right and fade in. Once the button is clicked again, it will slide to left and fade out. I come up with two solutions, with css and with JQuery.
In the first one, I used JQuery. You can find the example in this JSFiddle 1.
HTML
<button id="my-button">Click me!</button>
<div id="my-modal"></div>
CSS
#my-modal {
opacity: 1;
position: fixed;
top: 50px;
left: 0;
left: -250px;
width: 250px;
height: 100%;
background-color: red;
}
JQuery
$("#my-button").click(function () {
var $modal = $("#my-modal");
$modal.stop(true, true).animate({
left: "toggle",
opacity: "toggle"
}, 1000);
});
Here, everything seems working but it does directly opposite of what I want. It first fades out, and with the second click, it fades in. It is because that the opacity of the element is 1, but if I turn it to 0, nothing happens.
Secondly, I tried to do that with css animation by using key-frames (changing opacity from 0 to 1) but it has also problem. It starts the animation exactly the way I want. However, when I click the button again, it disappears immediately. Here is the JSFiddle 2.
HTML
<button id="my-button">Click me!</button>
<div id="my-modal"></div>
CSS
#my-modal {
opacity: 0;
position: fixed;
top: 50px;
left: 0;
left: -250px;
width: 250px;
height: 100%;
background-color: red;
-moz-transition: all 1s ease;
-webkit-transition: all 1s ease;
-o-transition: all 1s ease;
transition: all 1s ease;
}
.move-my-modal {
-moz-transform: translate(250px, 0px);
-webkit-transform: translate(250px, 0px);
-ms-transform: translate(250px, 0px);
-o-transform: translate(250px, 0px);
}
.animate-opacity {
-webkit-animation: toggle-opacity 1s ease;
-moz-animation: toggle-opacity 1s ease;
-o-animation: toggle-opacity 1s ease;
animation: toggle-opacity 1s ease;
-webkit-animation-fill-mode: forwards;
}
#-webkit-keyframes toggle-opacity {
0% {
opacity: 0;

JQuery
$("#my-button").click(function () {
var $modal = $("#my-modal");
$modal.toggleClass("move-my-modal");
$modal.toggleClass("animate-opacity");
});
To this end, I have these questions;
1) What are the problems with these two approaches? Is there something that I missed or forgot to use? How can I correct them to meet the requirements that I mentioned at the beginning.
2) Which one is the better way to make this action? Is there any cons or pros of these approaches?
3) Is there any other way to make this action? I am new on this area and I might not notice a simpler way.
You can toggle an .active class to the element and use CSS transitions.
This way, if the browser is old enough to not support animations, it will still work but it won't slow down computers that do not handle animations well.
$("#my-button").click(function () {
$("#my-modal").toggleClass('active');
});
#my-modal.active {
opacity: 1;
left: 0;
}
$("#my-button").click(function () {
$("#my-modal").toggleClass('active');
});
#my-modal {
opacity: 0;
position: fixed;
top: 50px;
left: -250px;
width: 250px;
height: 100%;
background-color: red;
transition: all 1s linear;
}
#my-modal.active {
opacity: 1;
left: 0;
}
<button id="my-button">Click me!</button>
<div id="my-modal"></div>
