I've been trying to understand the CSS animation property, I've got this sprite gridsheet I need to run through, I've seen examples of Animations both in row and grid style, but when I try to apply and adapt to my sprite sheet I'm having issues with the display.
Here is my current CSS & Html:
.logo {
width: 120px;
height: 100px;
margin: 2% auto;
background: url('http://res.cloudinary.com/df0nhzq7v/image/upload/v1484325835/bvd2_1024_fxwhvl.png') left top;
-webkit-animation: playv .6s steps(6) infinite, playh 1s steps(6) infinite;
}
#-webkit-keyframes playv {
0% { background-position-y: 0px; }
100% { background-position-y: 100%; }
}
#-webkit-keyframes playh {
0% { background-position-x: 0px; }
100% { background-position-x: 100%; }
}
<div class="logo"></div>
Codepen: http://codepen.io/BenSagiStuff/pen/ZLOJKM
There's a couple issues at play here. The first is that your animation property has the incorrect values. You need to change it from:
animation:
playv .6s steps(6) infinite,
playh 1s steps(6) infinite;
to:
animation:
playv 5s steps(5) infinite,
playh 1s steps(7) infinite;
It's important that the steps function takes in the correct parameters, such that playv is contains the number of sprites there are in the y direction and playh contains the number of sprites there are in the x direction. The timing for playv also needs to be slow enough to animate the grid properly and is actually equivalent to being your duration multiplied by the amount of rows in the sprite grid. This can be simplified into the following formula:
animation:
playv (duration * rows) steps(rows) infinite,
playh duration steps(cols) infinite;
Secondly, the image you have provided as the sprite grid is too large. It contains blank space/padding to the right and bottom of the image. As a result of this, the following lines are calculated incorrectly:
#-webkit-keyframes playv {
0% { background-position-y: 0px; }
100% { background-position-y: 100%; }
}
#-webkit-keyframes playh {
0% { background-position-x: 0px; }
100% { background-position-x: 100%; }
}
You either need to update the sprite grid so that it matches perfectly, or specify the pixels exactly like so:
#-webkit-keyframes playv {
0% { background-position-y: 0; }
100% { background-position-y: -550px; }
}
#-webkit-keyframes playh {
0% { background-position-x: 0; }
100% { background-position-x: -903px; }
}
Here's the working codepen.
I'm creating a loading spinner and having issues with the animation.
The sprite sheet runs through 22 steps. I'd like to use an easing effect at the start and end of the animation. When I add easing, the animation goes static.
jsfiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/Flignats/aaaaaf6h/3/
.hi {
width: 68px;
height: 68px;
background-image: url("data:image/png;base64, ... ");
-webkit-animation: play 1s steps(23) infinite;
-moz-animation: play 1s steps(23) infinite;
-ms-animation: play 1s steps(23) infinite;
-o-animation: play 1s steps(23) infinite;
animation: play 1s steps(23) infinite;
}
#-webkit-keyframes play {
from { background-position: 0px; }
to { background-position: -1564px; }
}
#-moz-keyframes play {
from { background-position: 0px; }
to { background-position: -1564px; }
}
#-ms-keyframes play {
from { background-position: 0px; }
to { background-position: -1564px; }
}
#-o-keyframes play {
from { background-position: 0px; }
to { background-position: -1564px; }
}
#keyframes play {
from { background-position: 0px; }
to { background-position: -1564px; }
}
The steps is one of the timing(easing) functions available (and you cannot use multiple easing functions).
Read the docs about The steps() class of timing-functions
The steps() functional notation defines a step function dividing the domain of output values in equidistant steps.
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>
I try to make an animation that run every 3 seconds without JavaScript. My animation's duration is 1 second.
I'm only able to wait 3seconds the first occurence then it's a loop of 1s animation.
My code so far: https://jsfiddle.net/belut/aojp8ozn/32/
.face.back {
-webkit-animation: BackRotate 1s linear infinite;
-webkit-animation-delay: 3s;
animation: BackRotate 1s linear infinite;
animation-delay: 3s;
}
.face.front {
-webkit-animation: Rotate 1s linear infinite;
-webkit-animation-delay: 3s;
animation: Rotate 1s linear infinite;
animation-delay: 3s;
}
#-webkit-keyframes Rotate {
from {-webkit-transform:rotateY(0deg);}
to {-webkit-transform:rotateY(360deg);}
}
#-webkit-keyframes BackRotate {
from {-webkit-transform:rotateY(180deg);}
to {-webkit-transform:rotateY(540deg);}
}
#keyframes Rotate {
from {-webkit-transform:rotateY(0deg);}
to {-webkit-transform:rotateY(360deg);}
}
#keyframes BackRotate {
from {-webkit-transform:rotateY(0deg);}
to {-webkit-transform:rotateY(360deg);}
}
I know how to do it with javascript: https://jsfiddle.net/belut/fk3f47jL/1/
I tried this answer without success: Cycling CSS3 animation with a pause period?
Can you help me please?
EDIT
Thanks great answers i'm also able to make this scenario:
wait 2s, run 1s flip, wait 2s, run 1s back_flip, wait 2s.
#f1_container {
position: relative;
margin: 10px auto;
width: 90px;
height: 90px;
z-index: 1;
}
#f1_container {
perspective: 1000;
}
#f1_card {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
img {
width: 90px;
height: 90px;
}
.face {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
backface-visibility: hidden;
}
.face.back {
display: block;
transform: rotateY(180deg);
}
.face.back {
-webkit-animation: BackRotate 5s linear infinite;
}
.face.front {
-webkit-animation: Rotate 5s linear infinite;
}
#-webkit-keyframes Rotate {
0%,40% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(0deg);}
50%,90% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(180deg);}
100% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(360deg);}
}
#-webkit-keyframes BackRotate {
0%,40% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(180deg);}
50%,90% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(360deg);}
100% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(540deg);}
}
It seems like the only way to achieve this is to extend the animation so that it lasts 4s instead of 1s. Then you could delay the animation by animating from 75% to 100% (rather than 0% to 100%).
In doing so, there is essentially an artificial delay in the animation itself. You just have to do the math to figure out how long this delay is in correlation with the total length of the animation itself.
Updated Example
.face.back {
display: block;
transform: rotateY(180deg);
}
.face.back {
-webkit-animation: BackRotate 4s linear infinite;
animation: BackRotate 4s linear infinite;
}
.face.front {
-webkit-animation: Rotate 4s linear infinite;
animation: Rotate 4s linear infinite;
}
#-webkit-keyframes Rotate {
75% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(0deg);}
100% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(360deg);}
}
#-webkit-keyframes BackRotate {
75% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(180deg);}
100% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(540deg);}
}
#keyframes Rotate {
75% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(0deg);}
100% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(360deg);}
}
#keyframes BackRotate {
75% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(180deg);}
100% {-webkit-transform:rotateY(540deg);}
}
I am not sure exactly when it was released, and it's not the most cross-browser approach (does not cover older browsers like I.E. 9) but you could use the animationPlayState style prop. Theres some documentation on this found here if you want to check it out.
animationPlayState=false
webkitAnimationPlayState=false
function pause() {
var animationElement = document.getElementById('animatedItem');
animationElement.style.animationPlayState='paused';
animationElement.style.webkitAnimationPlayState='paused';
}
As you can see this put's the items animation into a "paused"state, to put it back where it left the animation off at, you can set it to the "running" state that this prop accepts.
Here is a quick example I found when browsing Google.
I was able to do this, as #Josh mentioned, by extending the animation. For example, if you want your animation to last 0.5 seconds with a 3 second pause, you make the entire animation 3.5 seconds, and then use percentages to extend it. (0.5 seconds is about 14% of 3.5 seconds.)
In the code below, I created a DIV with transparent gradient that is the same width as the parent, and then animated it from left to right to give a shimmer effect.
.shimmer {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(160deg, rgba(255,255,255,0) 0%, rgba(255,255,255,0) 25%, rgba(255,255,255,0.85) 60%, rgba(255,255,255,0) 100%); /* FF3.6+ */
background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, right top, color-stop(0%,rgba(255,255,255,0)), color-stop(25%,rgba(255,255,255,0)), color-stop(60%,rgba(255,255,255,0.85)), color-stop(100%,rgba(255,255,255,0))); /* Chrome,Safari4+ */
background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(160deg, rgba(255,255,255,0) 0%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 25%,rgba(255,255,255,0.85) 60%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 100%); /* Chrome10+,Safari5.1+ */
background-image: -o-linear-gradient(160deg, rgba(255,255,255,0) 0%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 25%,rgba(255,255,255,0.85) 60%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 100%); /* Opera11.10+ */
background-image: -ms-linear-gradient(160deg, rgba(255,255,255,0) 0%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 25%,rgba(255,255,255,0.85) 60%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 100%); /* IE10+ */
background-image: linear-gradient(160deg, rgba(255,255,255,0) 0%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 25%,rgba(255,255,255,0.85) 60%,rgba(255,255,255,0) 100%); /* W3C */
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-size: 30% 100%;
left: -100%;
z-index: 101;
animation-name: shine;
animation-duration: 3.5s;
animation-iteration-count: infinite;
animation-timing-function: ease-in-out;
}
#keyframes shine {
0% { left: -100%; }
14% { left: 100%; }
100% { left: 100%; }
}
From 14% to 100%, the DIV doesn't move, but the animation continues for additional time, giving the effect of a pause.
You can add an ending state in the animation which will play like a delay. Check the example below, simple animation that runs for 4 sec but the last 3 sec is delayed.
body {
perspective: 500px;
}
/* clear background */
h2 {
text-align: center;
padding: 16px;
margin: 0;
}
/* crops animations that exceeds one line area */
.line {
width: 100%;
height: 4rem;
overflow: hidden;
padding: 0;
margin-bottom: 16px;
}
/* flipping class and key frames*/
.flipX {
animation: 4s anim-flipX ease infinite;
}
#keyframes anim-flipX {
0% {
opacity: 0;
transform: rotateX(9def);
}
20% {
/* animate nothing to pause animation at the end */
opacity: 1;
transform: rotateX(360deg);
}
60% {
/* animate nothing to pause animation at the end */
opacity: 1;
transform: rotateX(360deg);
}
100% {
/* animate nothing to pause animation at the end */
opacity: 1;
transform: rotateX(360deg);
}
}
<body>
<div class='line'>
<h2 class='flipX'>flip vertical</h2>
</div>
</body>
I have this: http://d.pr/i/A2b3 which acts as the divider between the header and the main content.
The image is set as the background image, repeat-x, of the header container.
<header> <--- image is background of this
<div id="container"></div>
</header>
I want the image to slide across the screen slowly almost in a wave like effect. Is this possible with CCS3 animations? If so can someone help?
Thanks
I would suggest using jQuery and a simple image slider with a shortened image pause so the image keeps on switching. As far as i know its not possible to get a video to appear in a slider (not without a play button of some sort). http://www.catchmyfame.com/2009/06/04/jquery-infinite-carousel-plugin/ would be an example of what i would use.
Try this!
CSS:
header {
width: 100%;
height: 150px;
background-image: url(http://www.scottishheritageusa.org/imgs/header_separator.png); //replace with your image
background-position: 0px;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
-webkit-animation: myanim 5s infinite linear;
-moz-animation: myanim 5s infinite linear;
-o-animation: myanim 5s infinite linear;
animation: myanim 5s infinite linear;
}
#-webkit-keyframes myanim {
0% { background-position: 0px; }
100% { background-position: 100px; } /* set this to the width of the image */
}
#-moz-keyframes myanim {
0% { background-position: 0px; }
100% { background-position: 100px; } /* set this to the width of the image */
}
#-o-keyframes myanim {
0% { background-position: 0px; }
100% { background-position: 100px; } /* set this to the width of the image */
}
#keyframes myanim {
0% { background-position: 0px; }
100% { background-position: 100px; } /* set this to the width of the image */
}
