How do i make a CSS animation run infinitely - css

I'm tryin to make a infinte animation but at some point it seems to hop back to the start.
Thats the code
h1 {
background: url(Pepesad.png) repeat-x;
width: 90%;
margin: 1em auto;
max-width: 600px;
height: 512px;
animation: flybirds 1s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes flybirds {
from {
background-position: 0px 0px
}
to {
background-position: 300px 0px
}
}

Some of the CSS rules you mentioned for h1 seems unnecessary for your purpose. Mentioning the width gives the animation very less space. Consider providing the h1 a container/ wrapper and set appropriate width for it.
h1 {
background: url(Pepesad.png) repeat-x;
height: 512px;
width: 5076px;
animation: flybirds 1s linear infinite;
}
Also in the keyframes you have mentioned the x-axis to 300px which cause the breaking effect during the animation. I suggest you update it
#keyframes flybirds {
from {
background-position: 0px 0px
}
to {
background-position: -100% 0px
}
}
Another alternative you could use is :
#keyframes flybirds {
0% {
transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
}
100% {
transform: translate3d(-1692px, 0, 0);
}
}
Note: the reason why I suggest to use an additional at all, rather than animating background-position on h1, is so that we can use an animated transform to do the movement, which is much more performant.

#extend class animations cancel each other out

I'm trying to create a loading animation where the outer ring spins to the right, while the inner one spins to the left.
This is all the CSS code:
html {
height: 100%;
}
.loadingCircle {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
border: solid 5px transparent;
border-top: solid 5px blue;
border-radius: 50%;
transform-origin: center center;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: auto;
}
.loadingCircleOuter {
#extend .loadingCircle;
animation: circleSpinOuter 2s linear infinite;
}
.loadingCircleInner {
#extend .loadingCircle;
height: 80px;
width: 80px;
animation: circleSpinInner 2s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes circleSpinOuter {
0% {
transform: rotateZ(0deg);
}
100% {
transform: rotateZ(360deg);
}
}
#keyframes circleSpinInner {
0% {
transform: rotateZ(0deg);
}
100% {
transform: rotateZ(-360deg);
}
}
Doing this results in the inner circle not spinning at all.
If I comment out the animation of the outer circle the inner one spins properly and making the inner circle spin twice as fast is enough to cancel the out the spin of the outer animation and add the proper spin to the left to it (oddly enough, only to it and not to the outer one, that one is still spinning correctly to the right).
It's clear that the outer animation is applied to both circles, but why?
I don't understand why it's behaving like that, changing the color of the outer circle does not apply the change to both circles, why does it alter the animation for both though?
Am I doing something horribly wrong?

css animation sprite sheet

I have a spritesheet with a dice in it; 6 faces.
its face is 70 x 70 pixels
total sprite image is 70 x 420 pixels
now I want to make a CSS animation that goes from 1 to 6 (that's simple)
additionally I want to change the size; at 50% double it size and at 100% back to normal.
:local(.mydice)
{
width: 70px;
height: 70px;
background: url('/images/dices.png');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: 0px 0px;
background-size: 100% 600%;
animation: dicemove1 5s steps(6, end) infinite;
}
and then use keyframes to make the alterations:
#keyframes dicemove1
{
0% { background-position: 0px 0px;}
100% { background-position: 0px -420px; }
}
the above CSS snippet works.
but now adding the code to make it grows fails:
50% { width: 140px; height: 140px; margin-top: -35px; margin-left: -35px; background-position: 0px ???? }
I know background-position must be changed to support the bigger size but problem is I use steps because I don't want to scroll through the image but see it change from face to face (1,2,3,4,5,6)
dividing 100 by 6 doesn't result in a nice round integer which makes the 50% alteration a bit difficult.
Have been looking for keyframes that could handle steps as well but have not found such a thing.
Anyone knows a way to do this?
I found the solution.
transform: scale(2,2);
This will grow the dice.
Now I can use 2 animations simultaneously; 1 changing the face other resizing
animation: anim1 1s steps(6, end) infinite, anim2 1s steps(36, end) infinite;
#keyframes anim1
{
0% { background-position: 0px 0px; }
100% { background-position: 0px -600px; }
}
#keyframes anim2
{
50% { transform: scale(2,2); }
}

Pause and reverse CSS animation on hover

I have a 11 frame png spritesheet. When you hover it will play the animation until the last frame and then pause, and when you hover out it will reverse the animation back to the first frame. I have this so far:
.intern {
width: 328px;
height: 187px;
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/zNsJCnM.png");
-webkit-animation: in 0.5s steps(11);
}
.intern:hover {
-webkit-animation: out 0.5s steps(11);
}
#-webkit-keyframes in {
from {
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
to {
background-position: 0px -2057px;
}
}
#-webkit-keyframes out {
0% {
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
100% {
background-position: 0px -2057px;
}
}
<div class="intern"></div>
JS Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/os2jm4h5/
Can someone help me out? I would like to do this with CSS (no JavaScript please) and preferably should use only one div.
This is possible with a few changes to CSS:
Add background-position: 0px -1683px; to .intern:hover. This will ensure that the animation "pauses" on the final frame. Currently when the hover animation finishes background-position goes back to 0px 0px;.
Reverse background-position in from and to for #-webkit-keyframes in
Reverse background-position in 0% and 100% for#-webkit-keyframes out
.intern {
width: 328px;
height: 187px;
background-image: url("http://i.imgur.com/zNsJCnM.png");
-webkit-animation: in 0.5s steps(11);
}
.intern:hover {
-webkit-animation: out 0.5s steps(11);
background-position: 0px -1683px;
}
#-webkit-keyframes in {
from {
background-position: 0px -2057px;
}
to {
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
}
#-webkit-keyframes out {
0% {
background-position: 0px 0px;
}
100% {
background-position: 0px -2057px;
}
}
<div class="intern"></div>
Note that background-position: 0px -1683px; is used because the last image in the sprite sheet (background-position: 0px -2057px;) is actually a copy of the first frame.

CSS sprite animation timing issues

I can't seem to get the animation timing right on this
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/ZYMgqE
.spinner {
width: 36px;
height: 36px;
background: url('http://i.imgur.com/CYiaWsF.png') top center;
animation: play 1s steps(10) infinite;
}
#keyframes play {
100% { background-position: 0px -2844px; }
}
I have tried numerous combinations, but it always comes out looking like a film reel.
Am I doing something wrong? Did I misunderstand CSS sprite animations?
Your math is off..I think.
The image is, apparently, 2844 px tall...so the number of steps should be the height divided by the element height
2844 / 36 = 79
.spinner {
width: 36px;
height: 36px;
background: url('http://i.imgur.com/CYiaWsF.png') top center;
-webkit-animation: play 1s steps(79) infinite;
animation: play 1s steps(79) infinite;
}
#-webkit-keyframes play {
100% {
background-position: 0px -2844px;
}
}
#keyframes play {
100% {
background-position: 0px -2844px;
}
}
<div class="spinner"></div>

Stop CSS3 animation jumping

I have the following fiddle (Wekbit/Chrome only).
Just watch the animation for a while and you will see it "stop" for a millisecond and then continues again. Could it be the svg file itself? If that is the case, how can I fix this file so the hiccup is gone?
HTML
<div class="tile10"></div>
CSS
#-webkit-keyframes move {
0% {
background-position: 6px 0;
}
100% {
background-position: 6px 80px;
}
}
.tile10 {
width: 80px;
height: 80px;
position: absolute;
background: url(http://www.mauricederegt.nl/loopband.svg);
background-repeat: repeat-y;
-webkit-animation: move 3s linear infinite;
z-index: -1;
}
It was indeed in the image. Your rows are about 6px heigh. 80 is not dividable by 6, so there will be a little displacement. 78 however is dividable by 6.
http://jsfiddle.net/rtS5U/5/
So instead of moving it 80px down, move it 78px down.
#-webkit-keyframes move {
0% {
background-position: 6px 0;
}
100% {
background-position: 6px 78px;
}
}
