I am trying to make the elements on my site fly-in and fly-out on scroll.
This is the effect I am looking for.
http://nizoapp.com/
The effect in the nizo site is done with jquery, I think
I have tried many different ways to get this effect working, with Skrollr, scrollorama, and jquery animate and with css transitions etc etc etc
I decided to use css transitions as mad by the "css animation cheat sheet" (google it)
After a lot of effort and some borrowed code, I have got it half working, as in, I can get the elements to fly-in on down scroll, but not to fly back out on up scroll.
This is a jsfiddle with it half working
http://jsfiddle.net/mrcharis/Hjx3Z/4/
The code is......
function isScrolledIntoView(elem) {
var docViewTop = $(window).scrollTop();
var docViewBottom = docViewTop + $(window).height();
var elemTop = $(elem).offset().top;
return ((elemTop <= docViewBottom) && (elemTop >= docViewTop));
}
$(window).scroll(function () {
$('.box').each(function (i) {
if (isScrolledIntoView(this)) {
$(this).addClass("slideRight");
}
});
});
// this is the function to check if is scroll down or up, but I cannot get it to trigger the fly in effect,
(function () {
var previousScroll = 0;
$(window).scroll(function () {
var currentScroll = $(this).scrollTop();
if (currentScroll > previousScroll){
// i figure to put the fly-in code here
}
else {
// and the fly-out code here
}
previousScroll = currentScroll;
});
}());
I have tried using another function (code chunk) to check if the scrolling is down or up, but i can't get it working with the existing code.
Any help to get this working would be awesome
Have a nice day
I will post the solution one day, if I can figure it out, sure someone else would like to know
The trick to knowing whether you're scrolling up or down is not to ask. Make it relational by using the top offset of the elements in question. Then it's as easy as > or <, for the most part.
Though if you do want to get the current direction you could always record the last scroll position and compare it with the current one.
var before = 0;
$(window).scroll(function(event){
var now = $(this).scrollTop();
if (now > before){
//on down code
} else {
//on up code
}
before = now;
});
Like the answer here suggests.
I like to trigger the events based on the screen size and the element position in the screen, so it doesn't matter whether it's up or down, it follows the same rules forwards and backwards. That way instead of asking up or down, it just asks if it's scrolling and executes it accordingly.
If you need me to make changes to my fiddle for you, just let me know what you want to happen. I only made the fiddle because of the horrible job they did on the tympanus.net example. You don't make a tutorial to accomplish a simple task 2 pages of js, that's unnecessary and it doesn't provide any instruction other than "hey, you want to do this? Then copy and paste these things I put together that have no clear course of action, and way too much code to digest quickly". Which doesn't help anyone learn.
After some code borrowing from tympanus.net and using the modernizer library I came up with this.
I tried different approaches as well but all of them turned out to have some flaws in them so I find best approach to be using the sample code and the already provided modernizer JS library.

I have a function that scrolls down/snaps to a div after the user starts to scroll (to avoid them having to manually scroll down to where the main content starts). I have used some GSAP to achieve this, however I don't think that will make much difference with the solution to this problem. However, while this function does exactly what I'd like, It won't then allow the user to scroll back up. It just glitches a little bit, as if I'm fighting with the function to scroll back up. I've tried a variety of answers from all the "run only once questions" on here, but none seem to work in this situation.
I want to basically kill the function after the first time it is initiated, or to tweak the function to only work on the first scroll at the top of the page (though I appreciate this would be much more complicated).
Thank you in advance of any help.
JS:
$(window).scroll(function () {
function headScrollToDiv() {
var dHeight = $(window).height();
if (dHeight >= $(this).scrollTop()) {
gsap.to(window, 0.4, { scrollTo: ".buffer" });
}
}
headScrollToDiv();
});
So I have two sections of content near the top of my page and I’d like for users who have scrolled down to near the top of the second section to get “scroll snapped” to the top of the second one once they have stopped scrolling.
I think it should be possible using jQuery but I haven’t been able to figure it out. Here are my examples:
Without my attempt: http://codepen.io/jifarris/pen/gaVgBp
With my broken attempt: http://codepen.io/jifarris/pen/gaVgQp
Basically I can’t figure out how to make it try scrolling to the spot only once, after scrolling has stopped. It’s kind of just freaking out.
I love how the recently introduced scroll snap points CSS feature handles scroll snapping and I’d almost prefer to use it – for the browsers that support it, at least – but it seems like it only works for items that take up 100% of the viewport height or width, and it seems like it’s for scrolling within an element, not the page itself.
The top section has a fixed height, so this really can be handled with pixel numbers.
And for reference, here’s the heart of the code from my attempt:
$(function() {
$(document).on('scroll', function() {
var top = $(document).scrollTop();
if (top > 255 && top < 455) {
$('html, body').animate({scrollTop: '356'}, 500);
$('body').addClass('hotzone');
} else {
$('body').removeClass('hotzone');
}
});
});
KQI's answer contains most of the steps required to create a well functioning section-scroll for use in your application/webpage.
However, if you'd just want to experiment yourself, developing your script further, the first thing you'll have to do is add a timeout handler. Otherwise your logic, and therefor scrollAnimation, will trigger every single pixel scrolled and create a buggy bouncing effect.
I have provided a working example based on your script here:
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/QjepRZ?editors=001
$(function() {
var timeout;
$(document).on('scroll', function() {
clearTimeout(timeout);
timeout = setTimeout(function() {
var top = $(document).scrollTop();
if (top > 255 && top < 455) {
$('body').animate({
scrollTop: '356'
}, 500);
$('body').addClass('hotzone');
} else {
$('body').removeClass('hotzone');
}
}, 50);
});
});
Good luck!
All right, there are couple of things you gonna have to deal with to get a good result: which are performance, call stack queue, easing.
Performance wise you should drop jQuery animate and use VelocityJs which gives a smoother transition, better frame per second (fps) to avoid screen glitches especially on mobiles.
Call stack: you should wrap whatever logic you have to animate the scrolltop with 'debounce' function, set the delay for let say 500mm and check the scrolling behavior. Just so you know, the 'scroll' listener your using is firing on each pixel change and your script will go crazy and erratic. (It is just gonna be a moment of so many calc at the same time. Debounce will fix that for you)
Easing: make the transition looks cool not just dry snappy movement.
Remember, 'easing' with Velocity starts with 'mina.' i.e.
'Mina.easingFnName'
Finally, your logic could be right, i am in my phone now cannot debug it but try to simplify it and work with a single problem at once, be like i.e.
If ( top > 380 ) // debounce(...)
I have a div on my page, and I would like the background color to change when the viewer scrolls down to it.
How can I do this?
I would have used CSS3 with something like this...
var elemTop = $('div').offset().top;
$(window).scroll(function() {
if($(this).scrollTop() == elemTop) {
$('div').removeClass('hidden');
}
});
The commenter above is right. You should try something first and when you get stuck, the community will help you get unstuck. That said, here's a quick jquery to solve your problem.
$(document).ready(function(){
var offsetTop = $('#test').offset().top, //offset from top of element - element has id of 'test'
finalOffset = offsetTop - document.documentElement.clientHeight; //screen size
$(window).on('scroll',function(){
var whereAmI = $(document).scrollTop();
if(whereAmI >= offsetTop){
console.log("i've arrived at the destination");
}
})
})
Note that the above code executes the console.log() at every point past your requirement (meaning from there downwards). In case you want the execution to happen only one, you need to adapt the code a bit. One more note - if you're checking this in a fiddle, this document.documentElement.clientHeight needs to be adapted to work in an iframe. So test it on your local machine.
anyone have a clue how to make a sroll effect like this?

I know the content is repeated at the end to create the illusion but i would like to know how to achieve the seemingly never end scroll.
Thanks!
It appears that site is using Skrollr: http://prinzhorn.github.io/skrollr/
Scroll all the way down for links to the Github and more examples.
Deep down, it is using the function window.scrollTo() to set the scroll position, and probably setting DOM around that area so that it looks the same as where it was scrolled from.
https://github.com/Prinzhorn/skrollr/blob/master/src/skrollr.js#L617
This works for me :)
here is the example: http://www.cancerbero.mx (only enable in Chrome and Safari)
// #loop is the div ID where repetition begins
$(document).ready(function(){
$(window).scroll(function(){
var scroll = $(window).scrollTop();
var limit = $('#loop').position().top;
if(scroll >= limit){
window.scrollTo(0,1); // 1 to avoid conflicts
}
if(scroll == 0){
window.scrollTo(0,limit);
}
});
});
I have currently got an element to scroll on page scroll and I am looking to get it to stop after around 750px as it currently overlaps the footer on smaller monitors.
I have found a couple of other examples which would require some restructuring of my code which I am trying to avoid, as the various other examples have to have certain divs relevant to eachother in order to stop the scrolling div at a certain point on the page.
My current script is as below and wrks great, only I am unsure as to edit this to stop the div at a certain point:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
var btn = $('.overview-wrap');
var btnPosTop = btn.offset().top;
var win = $(window);
win.scroll(function(e){
var scrollTop = win.scrollTop();
if(scrollTop >= btnPosTop){
btn.css({position:'fixed',top:0,marginTop:0});
}else if(btn.css('position') === 'fixed'){
btn.css({position:'',top:'',marginTop:'20px'});
}
});
});
</script>
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Personally, I hate dealing directly with the DOM for things like position, because it's so variable. Check out the jquery-position library for a nice abstraction on top of the dom.
