jQuery: Animate Removal of Style Attribute from Multiple divs

I have ~33 divs that I am setting the position of randomly and animating this places. These divs are originally positioned with the help of flex and then the positions are randomized by setting their positions to relative and changing the left and top values. This happens every click.
On every alternate click, I want to return the divs to their normal position. So far the only solution to this I've found is the .removeAttr('style') method. However, I want to be able to animate their return to original position. Is this possible?
Here is the code:
var position_checker = false;
$(document).click(function() {
if(position_checker == false) {
$('.poster05-text').each(function() {
var position = $(this).offset();
$(this).css({
position: 'relative',
}, position);
var docHeight = $(document).height(),
docWidth = $(document).width(),
divWidth = 500,
divHeight = 500,
heightMax = docHeight - divHeight,
widthMax = docWidth - divWidth;
var posLeft = Math.floor(Math.random() * widthMax);
var posTop = Math.floor(Math.random() * heightMax);
// console.log(docHeight, docWidth);
$(this).animate({
position: 'fixed',
left: posLeft,
top: posTop
}, 1000 , 'easeInQuint');
});
position_checker=true;
}
else if(position_checker==true) {
$('.poster05-text').each(function() {
$(this).removeAttr('style');
});
position_checker=false;
}
});

I don't know this a right way to do that or not .. but anyway .. you need to save the previous left and top positions for each div on array
var position_checker = false , T_L_Positions = [];
$(document).click(function() {
if(position_checker == false) {
$('.poster05-text').each(function(i) {
var position = $(this).offset();
$(this).css({
position: 'relative',
}, position);
T_L_Positions[i] = new Array(position.top ,position.left);
var docHeight = $(document).height(),
docWidth = $(document).width(),
divWidth = 500,
divHeight = 500,
heightMax = docHeight - divHeight,
widthMax = docWidth - divWidth;
var posLeft = Math.floor(Math.random() * widthMax);
var posTop = Math.floor(Math.random() * heightMax);
// console.log(docHeight, docWidth);
$(this).animate({
position: 'fixed',
left: posLeft,
top: posTop
}, 1000 , 'easeInQuint');
});
position_checker=true;
}
else if(position_checker==true) {
$('.poster05-text').each(function(i) {
$(this).animate({
position: 'relative',
left: T_L_Positions[i][1],
top: T_L_Positions[i][0]
}, 1000 , 'easeInQuint');
});
position_checker=false;
}
});
Note: This Code Not Tested .. but you can try it
maybe you'll need to wrap your code in $(document).ready(function(){ //code here })

If you're looking for a non-JS solution. You should be able to use CSS Transitions to do this.
transition: top 500ms, left 300ms;
That way you can just set and remove the position and let CSS deal with the animation.

slimScroll scrolls to fast (wheelStep and touchScrollStep not working)

I'm using slimScroll within a js project for a scroll bar on one side of the page. There are a lot of elements within the the scrollView and right now it's scrolling way to quickly and not intuitively. When I reduce the amount of wheel and/or touchScrollStep there is not change it speed.

I've just played around with this script and I kept adjusting the numbers and these are the numbers that felt more natural to me.
wheelStep : 10,
touchScrollStep : 75
The only thing I'm not happy with is how it doesn't understand how fast you scrolled with touch events, so it doesn't have that inertia effect like native iOS does naturally. I'm hoping they'll add that option soon.

Find
delta = (y > 0) ? Math.ceil(delta): Math.floor(delta);
and change it to the following:
var speedfix = 10;
delta = (y > 0) ? Math.ceil(delta) + speedfix : Math.floor(delta)- speedfix;
Change the value of speedfix to your requirement

Auto scrolling to element in scrollable div

I have 5 elements that are within a div larger than the screen (on a mobile phone).
I want the user to be able to click on one of the elements and have that element scroll to the centre of the screen.
I've tried writing this with jQuery myself, but I can't seem to get the logic quite right. I've got it kind of moving but the element selected doesn't go to the centre of the screen.
Here's a Fiddle of what I have do far: http://jsfiddle.net/geQ64/1/
Here's the JS from the fiddle also:
$(window).on('load', function() {
$('.tab-3').trigger('click');
var width = $(window).width();
if (width < 651) {
$('.ul-wrap').scrollLeft( $('.tab-3').offset().left );
}
});
$('.single-tabs').on('click', function() {
var offset = $('.tabs').width();
offset = offset/5;
var center = offset/2;
var tab = $(this).data('tab');
$('.tabs-content').hide();
$('.tab'+ tab +'').show();
var width = $(window).width();
if (width > 650) {
var arrow = tab*20-12;
$('.arrow-up').css('margin-left', '' + arrow + '%');
} else {
tab = tab - 1;
var position = offset * tab - center;
$('.ul-wrap').scrollLeft(position);
}
});

Found a fix, here's the JS is anyone needs it.
The - 55 in the var position is for an arrow that sits in the centre of the page below the elements I'm moving with this script.
$(window).on('load', function() {
$('.tab-3').trigger('click');
var width = $(window).width();
if (width < 651) {
var offset = $('.tabs').width();
offset = offset/7;
var center = offset/2;
var position = offset * 2 + center - 50;
$('.ul-wrap').animate({
scrollLeft: position
}, 200);
}
});
$('.single-tabs').on('click', function() {
var offset = $('.tabs').width();
offset = offset/7;
var center = offset/2;
var tab = $(this).data('tab');
$('.tabs-content').hide();
$('.tab'+ tab +'').show();
var width = $(window).width();
if (width > 650) {
var arrow = tab*20-12;
$('.arrow-up').css('margin-left', '' + arrow + '%');
} else {
tab = tab - 1;
var position = offset * tab + center - 50;
$('.ul-wrap').animate({
scrollLeft: position
}, 200);
}

position:fixed navigation stop at end of specific div - parallax scrolling & javascript

I have a vertically oriented vertical navigation bar, that I would like to make stop at the end of #contact. It will need to resume scrolling again if the user scrolls back up.
What is the best way to achieve this?
javascript being used:
$(function() {
$.fn.scrollBottom = function() {
return $(document).height() - this.scrollTop() - this.height();
};
var $el = $('#nav>div');
var $window = $(window);
var top = $el.parent().position().top;
$window.bind("scroll resize", function() {
var gap = $window.height() - $el.height() - 10;
var visibleFoot = 340 - $window.scrollBottom();
var scrollTop = $window.scrollTop()
if (scrollTop < top + 10) {
$el.css({
top: (top - scrollTop) + "px",
bottom: "auto"
});
} else if (visibleFoot > gap) {
$el.css({
top: "auto",
bottom: visibleFoot + "px"
});
} else {
$el.css({
top: 0,
bottom: "auto"
});
}
}).scroll();
});
jsfiddle

I believe this is the code you are looking for:
$(function() {
var $Nav = $('#Nav');
var $window = $(window);
var $contact = $('#contact');
var maxTop = $contact.offset().top + $contact.height() - $Nav.height();
window.navFixed = 1;
$window.bind("scroll resize", function() {
var currentTop = $window.scrollTop();
if (currentTop <= maxTop && window.navFixed == 0) {
$Nav.css({
position: 'fixed',
top: '5%'
});
window.navFixed = 1;
} else if (currentTop > maxTop && window.navFixed == 1) {
$Nav.css({
position: 'absolute',
top: maxTop
});
window.navFixed = 0;
}
}).scroll();
});
The #Nav element contains the CSS you had originally specified: position: fixed; top: (...). When the document is ready, the variable maxTop is calculated based on the #contact element's top and height.
On the scroll and resize event, the variable currentTop is calculated as the current scroll position. If this value is lower than maxTop, then #Nav is set to the original CSS; if the value is higher, new CSS styles are applied: position: absolute; top: maxTop;
window.navFixed is used to prevent the CSS to be constantly updated while scrolling. I'm sure that bit can be improved, however, it demonstrates its purpose.
Check out the JSFiddle for the full HTML..
PS. There's a minor bug in your code, where #Nav refers to the <ul> element, rather than the <nav> element. However, the moving element is the <ul>, when it should be <nav>.

This isn't my code, I'm trying to make edits so that it will achieve the effect that I am after, i.e. fade
Thanks again.

You can replace the show() with fadeIn(timeout) and the hide() with fadeOut(timeout).
