scrollTriggers move with scrolling

[Alihdad]

Hi. I was working with gsap recently and there's this problem with setting scroll triggers:

when I set triggers, the trigger markers move with scrolling, the page trigger and element trigger will never align this way, and the animation won't happen. The point is that when I try the animation separate from other elements in a codepen, it works but in the main projects it doesn't. Also, I cant place the whole project here can anyone help me here, please? I'd be appreciated.

It's pretty tough to troubleshoot without a minimal demo - the issue could be caused by CSS, markup, a third party library, your browser, an external script that's totally unrelated to GSAP, etc. Would you please provide a very simple CodePen or Stackblitz that demonstrates the issue? 

 

Please don't include your whole project. Just some colored <div> elements and the GSAP code is best (avoid frameworks if possible). See if you can recreate the issue with as few dependancies as possible. If not, incrementally add code bit by bit until it breaks. Usually people solve their own issues during this process! If not, then at least we have a reduced test case which greatly increases your chances of getting a relevant answer.

 

Here's a starter CodePen that loads all the plugins. Just click "fork" at the bottom right and make your minimal demo:

If you're using something like React/Next/Vue/Nuxt or some other framework, you may find StackBlitz easier to use. We have a series of collections with different templates for you to get started on these different frameworks: React/Next/Vue/Nuxt.

 

Once we see an isolated demo, we'll do our best to jump in and help with your GSAP-specific questions.

Hi @Alihdad welcome to the forum!

 

We don't want your whole project. We ask for a minimal demo, just some coloured divs that demonstrate the issue. 

 

It sounds to me that you don't use the 'normal' scroll of the browser, but modify it somehow. You can set a custom scroller if you do this see the link below , but that said I would not modify the normal scrolling behaviour of the browser.

thanks for your response. I assume the problem would be from the positioning hierarchy which is as below:

fixed

|__ absolute

     |__ absolute

          |__ absolute

               |__ absolute

                    |__ absolute

                         |__ absolute

                              |__ relative

                                   |__ flex ( trigger element)  <------

I hope you can help me with this information.

thank you
