Hello, first of all I apologize if my English is not very good. I don't write the language fluently This is my first post and I'm new to GSAP. Believe me, I didn't want to post this without trying to solve the animation problem first. I have an animation where, at the starting point, the cards appear stacked one below the other. As you scroll, each card moves up and eventually exits the screen, while the bottom card adjusts to position y:0. The problem arises when the animation is reversed. As shown in the preview, the cards do not return to their correct positions and the animation does not complete as expected. I hope someone can help me with this. Thank you! PD: Reload the page if the animation doesn't work as expected, I don't know what's going on. After reloading, it works fine.

Hi, I'm working on a website where a large image scales as you scroll. At page load, I want the image to start at 20% scale and be positioned higher on the y-axis so that it's visible in the viewport. While the setup mostly works, I've encountered an issue: when I apply a negative y-position, the scaling no longer happens from the center. https://codepen.io/remcovb/pen/eYwvGqb However, when I remove the negative y-position, the scaling works correctly from the center, but then the image isn't in the viewport anymore. https://codepen.io/remcovb/pen/bGPqoyo Any advice on how to maintain centered scaling while keeping the image in the viewport? Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone, I'm trying to do this effect (the one with the four cards): https://www.botify.com/ I'm having trouble and need some advice to succeed. Thank you for your help

const BringSection = () => { const rightRef = useRef(null); const sectionRef = useRef(null); useEffect(() => { gsap.registerPlugin(ScrollTrigger); const ctx = gsap.context(() => { gsap.fromTo( sectionRef.current, { y: 200, opacity: 0, }, { y: 0, scale: 1, opacity: 1, duration: 1, scrollTrigger: { trigger: sectionRef.current, start: "top bottom", end: "top center", markers: true, }, } ); ScrollTrigger.create({ trigger: ".gallery", start: "top top", end: "bottom bottom", pin: rightRef.current, markers: true, }); }); return () => ctx.revert(); }, []); return ( <section ref={sectionRef} className="bg-gray-300 rounded-[4rem] section-reveal" > <div className="gallery"> <div ref={rightRef} className="right"> <div className="photos"> <div className="photo red"></div> <div className="photo green"></div> <div className="photo blue"></div> </div> </div> <div className="left"> <div className="detailsWrapper"> <div className="details"> <div className="headline red"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> </div> <div className="details"> <div className="headline green"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> </div> <div className="details"> <div className="headline blue"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> <div className="text"></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> ); }; export default BringSection;

I’ve created four cloud images (cloud1 to 4.png) and want to animate them to smoothly zoom out upon scrolling. Let me know the best way to achieve smooth scrolling. I’ll showcase a character when the clouds have nearly zoomed out completely.

I've created a scrolling container inside of the section. And it works just fine until I got to the next-prev buttons. The issue here is that scrollTo miscalculates the scroll position and sections become stuck in between. I've tried everything passing ids, scroll values, elements, even add fixed value on scroll (e.g. 200px). But no help. Help me please I've killed so much time trying to fix this bug. Here is my codepen. You can scroll down to section #3, and then play with buttons. https://codepen.io/pshechko/pen/gOJvyNq

I'm trying to implement a GSAP timeline with Locomotive Scroll beta to pin an element while scrolling in a Next.js component. The code works perfectly in a normal HTML and JS environment, but it's not functioning as expected in Next.js. Here is the minimal demo with normal html environment: https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/gsap-timeline-forked-3dqjgv?file=%2Fsrc%2Findex.js%3A8%2C18 Here is the Next Js version: https://codesandbox.io/p/devbox/c4cq6q?file=%2Fpin-element%2Fsrc%2Fapp%2FPinComponent.js%3A28%2C11 I'm new to GSAP and I'm looking for assistance to fix the issue.

Hello Guys, im very new to Javascript & GSAP. I have tested some things on a Testpage See here (not responsive yet) and here are the files: HTML IMG CSS JS FILE on Desktop and Android everything works fine ! Only on IOS mobile (Safari & Chrome on IOS) when u open the Testpage See here the scrollTrigger is not working correct. Between the Sections i have WHITE SPACE see in this screenvideo SCREENVIDEO i testet so many things, only solution for now what have worked is : ScrollTrigger.normalize.Scroll (this works on IOS but looks weird! Is there anything i can do , or i'm doing something wrong ? ps: pls i don´t know how to do a DEMO on Codepen or something like this ( all Files linked ) thank your for helping.

Hey guys, I need a little help with this one. I want scroll to specific slide by clicking on button but unable to find any way to perform same function. Pls advice. Many thanks

Hello Everyone! I have a bit of a generic problem/misunderstanding - basically, i have some animations in GSAP and have a couple of questions to understand it more deeply: When is the best time to load the GSAP animation (when the document is loaded or when everything is loaded (DOM, images, etc))? The first question leads to this one - if I do a hard refresh in the browser my animations are flashing or for example, the element that should be x: -100% is visible (for literally like 0.00s but still and then animation kicks in so there is a little flash) because the js file is not probably loaded yet - how do you guys tackle this, especially vital animations like for hero section or the other places when we need everything to be loaded and animated ASAP? Please have a look at the code below all bundled by webpack: $(function () { // Hero section animation const heroBanners = document.querySelectorAll(".section__hero-banner"); heroBanners.forEach((section) => { let imgCover = section.querySelector(".img-cover"); let imgTl = gsap.timeline({ scrollTrigger: { trigger: section, // markers: {startColor: "green", endColor: "red", fontSize: "18px", fontWeight: "bold", indent: 20}, start: "top center", }, }); // Inital state for headings imgTl.set(".hero-text__right", {x: "120%"}); imgTl.set(".hero-text__left", {x: "-120%"}); imgTl.to(imgCover, { opacity: 1, ease: "power4.inOut", duration: 0.4, }); gsap.utils.toArray(section.getElementsByClassName("hero-text")).forEach((heroText, herIdx) => { var container = section.getElementsByClassName("text-wrapper"); let textTl = gsap.timeline({ scrollTrigger: { trigger: section, scrub: 1, // markers: {startColor: "green", endColor: "red", fontSize: "18px", fontWeight: "bold", indent: 20}, start: "top top-=50px", end: "bottom center", // toggleActions: "restart none none reset" }, }); if (herIdx % 2 == 0) { let distance = $(container).width() - $(heroText).width(); //left imgTl.to(heroText, { x: "0%", duration: 0.85, ease: "power4.inOut", }); textTl.to(heroText, { x: `${distance}px`, }); } else { let distance = $(container).width() - $(heroText).width(); //right imgTl.to( heroText, { x: "0%", duration: 0.85, ease: "power4.inOut", delay: -0.85, } ); textTl.to(heroText, { x: `-${distance}px`, }); } }); }); }); The animation is: hero image fade in then slide two lines of text from left and right. Would be amazing he somebody could point out some bad practises or mistakes or if this could be done in better way. thanks you so much guyz!

Hey GSAP Team, I have a concern regarding my implementation of "scrollTrigger". The Start/End marker of the triggers isn't aligning correctly with the top and bottom of the triggers. Please focus on the ".services-content-heading-inner" element, as this is what I'm currently experimenting with. My ultimate goal here is to animate this element once it enters the viewport. However, it immediately animates because of how the elements' start/end is positioned. I tried changing the position to start: "center top", end: "center bottom". However, the position is still off and not really at the center of the trigger element. I attempted to change the trigger to the parent element, but the story remains the same. I really want to use scrollTrigger because it seems to be simpler compared to https://gsap.com/docs/v3/Plugins/Observer/. I also tried using https://gsap.com/docs/v3/Plugins/ScrollTrigger/static.isInViewport()/ by wrapping the animation in an if-else condition "ScrollTrigger.isInViewport(element)". However, it doesn't fire the logic inside the condition even if the condition was met. I would appreciate your thoughts and expert advice on where I went wrong or missed. Thank you very much for any assistance.

Hello community. I'm trying to implement an animation that has been talked about here more than once from the site https://lenis.darkroom.engineering where Enter Lenis is approaching us in the screen. I implemented the same "backing" and it worked fine until I started testing it in Safari browser and on mobile devices The issue is that as I get closer, the edges of my shape (SVG) start to blur and I can see the outlines are not clear. I tried to implement my shape as a normal text, but I faced the same problem, my outlines during the animation process become not clearly visible. I also tried to add will-change property, but with this property my edges become blurred even in Google Chrome browser where everything was fine before. What could be the problem? Thanks!

Hello everyone ! I am having his issue of needing to animate elements that are within an overflow container. As you can see here by default, it seems GSAP doesn't pick up the positions of the container being scrolled thus the scrolltrigger never gets activated. The behaviour I'm looking after is that when the first blue square hits the top, the animation gets triggered. Right now, I need to scroll all the way down and then somehow scrolling some more gets the markers moving and triggers the animation (I'm thinking this is due to the pinspacer). If you'd have any thought on how to get around this/ info on the inner workings, it would be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot for any help you can provide

Hi Dear, I have created a component with split text and scroll trigger in a Next.js project. It works fine on Android but is not functioning properly on iPhone. Specifically, I'm experiencing jerking while scrolling. Can anyone suggest a solution to fix this issue?

Hi everyone, I'm writing here for the first time as I see that your community is quite developed, it's cool, thank you. I don't have more experience with GSAP, but I'm trying to realize this effect I have a page where the first block always takes 100vh, and as soon as I initiate a scroll event (any, strong or weak) my block automatically scrolls (I can't interrupt this event) and when it reaches the start of the second block, the effect turns and I can safely scroll the page. I'm trying to implement this, but I keep running into various bugs, I used to write it via Framer Motion, but now I'm trying to rewrite it on GSAP as I think this solution is more suitable for this effect. Does anyone have similar cases or maybe a demo to share some advice? Thank you very much I mean, in a nutshell. The point is that you can't scroll partially through the first block, only always the whole block. And then the page starts to work like normal scrolling in the browser on the next blocks https://codesandbox.io/p/devbox/scroll-sections-txdh67?file=%2Fsrc%2FApp.tsx cut5.mov

Hi all ? https://codepen.io/mikhail21990/pen/QWPEeRP I use two pin animations In the first, the block stands still and the photo is scrolled from bottom to top from the top of the text. in the reviews block, the block also stands still while the animation is running, containers with reviews should move from right to left. Separately, the animations work as they should, but together for some reason an incomprehensible flickering effect occurs. Tell me what could be the problem ?

Hey guys, I am happy to be here and use your amazing tools for my upcoming personal website. That being said, I need your advice. What would you say would be best practices when dealing with multiple reveal animations on scrolling? I've found that mobile performance (on Chrome, since Firefox seems to perform beautifully) is pretty bad when it comes to the way my reveal animations trigger. They feel stuttery and somewhat low-fps. I've tried slowly scrolling to avoid overriding them by dragging the screen (to see if multiple animations firing at once could be the cause), but the choppy animation effect is pretty much the same even if only one animation triggers. For reference, I've set up my reveal animations using attributes. I place certain attributes on certain elements, and a switch statement detects the type of animation that needs to be fired for each element. Here's more or less how this code is setup. Maybe you have some pointers on how would be best to setup something like this? function loadGSAPAnimations() { let selector = "[data-reveal]"; // Base selector for elements to animate // Query the DOM once for each modified selector let itemsToAnimate = document.querySelectorAll(selector); itemsToAnimate.forEach((itemFound) => { const elementTimeline = gsap.timeline({ delay: itemFound.dataset.delay || 0, // If "data-delay" attribute is present, adjust value defaults: { duration: 1, ease: "power4.out" }, }), animationType = itemFound.dataset.reveal; switch (animationType) { case "multi-element-reveal": const childElements = itemFound.querySelectorAll(childSelector); gsap.set(childElements, { opacity: 0, y: 115, willChange: "transform, translateY", }); elementTimeline.to( childElements, { opacity: 1, y: 0, stagger: 0.2, ease: "power4.out", onComplete: () => { gsap.set(childElements, { willChange: "auto" }); }, }, "+=0.3" ); break; case "element-reveal": gsap.set(itemFound, { opacity: 0, y: 115, willChange: "transform, translateY", }); elementTimeline.to( itemFound, { opacity: 1, y: 0, duration: 1, ease: "power4.out", stagger: 0.15, onComplete: () => { gsap.set(itemFound, { willChange: "auto" }); }, }, "+=0.3" ); break; case "title-reveal": let elementText = new SplitType(itemFound, { types: "lines", lineClass: "title-line", tagName: "span", }); gsap.set(elementText.lines, { opacity: 0, y: 115, willChange: "transform, translateY", }); elementTimeline.to( elementText.lines, { opacity: 1, y: 0, duration: 1, stagger: 0.15, ease: "power4.out", onComplete: () => { gsap.set(elementText.lines, { willChange: "auto" }); elementText.revert(); }, }, "+=0.3" ); break; case "image-reveal": const image = itemFound.querySelector("img"); const innerWrapper = image.closest(".image-animation-wrapper"); gsap.set(innerWrapper, { scale: 1.15, "--reveal-scale": 1, force3D: true, willChange: "scale, transform, translateY", }); elementTimeline.to( innerWrapper, { "--reveal-scale": 0, scale: 1, duration: 1.5, ease: "power4.out", onComplete: () => { gsap.set(innerWrapper, { willChange: "auto" }); }, }, "+=0.3" ); break; } //Controls the distance from the screen when the item gets revealed on scroll const revealOffset = itemFound.dataset.offset || 84; // Create the ScrollTrigger instance ScrollTrigger.create({ trigger: itemFound, animation: elementTimeline, start: `top ${revealOffset}%`, end: "bottom 35%", refreshPriority: -1, }); }); }

I want vertical progress bar in content section that will be completely filled when user reaches at the end of the content section.

Greetings everyone, I have recently started to work as a Shopify Developer and I have a task to tackle. The developer before me used ScrollTrigger to animate the Home page. It would display one div (slide) that would cover the full size, and when scrolling, the next div coming from the bottom would overlap the existing one, continuing the scroll this animation would repeat until there were no more slides left. Now the client requested that I have this same animation but in reverse, when scrolling, slides would appear from the top and overlap the existing one. Is this possible with this current JS code, or do I need to make this from scratch? I've managed to find a Post here that has CodePen that shows what is my current animation.

Hi Everyone, Hope everyone is doing good. I am facing a small problem that I cant seem to solve. issue is that while i scroll vertically there a section that scroll horizontally (like a image carousel) then unpin and continou scrolling vertically. ISSUE: the issue is where the trigger should unpin. now it unpin when the left side of last image has touched the left side of parent div leaving a big white space. Example From Images. What I want: when the last image is shown, just stop the horizontal scrolling and unpin the section don't drag the last image to the right side https://codepen.io/Fawad4real/pen/abMRqLZ

Hello! I'm trying to create an animated content using ScrollTrigger. I have 4 sections that fade in/out on scroll and I have a progress bar that animates when each section fades in. The issue that I'm having is trying to animate a curved SVG line and trying to match the start and end animation with the fading in of the first section. Any help would be much appreciated!
