set state after animation CSS3 - css

I have one question related to css3 animations, let's day I want to make a fade-in animation, so I animate from opacity: 0 to opacity: 1; so my primary state is opacity 0, and 100% is opacity 1.
So question is, after arriving to 100%; opacity state backs to 0, I want it to appear and stay, so opacity stay at 1 after animation is complete. how can I achieve this?

Best Regards!

Use animation-fill-mode with a value of forwards:
If the value for 'animation-fill-mode' is 'forwards', then the animation will apply the property values defined in its last executing keyframe after the final iteration of the animation, until the animation style is removed. The last executing keyframe is the ‘to’ or ‘100%’ keyframe, unless the animation has 'animation-direction' set to 'alternate' and both a finite and even iteration count, in which case it is the ‘from’ or ‘0%’ keyframe.
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/FvxVc/2/

I got the answer using this property:
animation-fill-mode: forwards;
It also accepts others parameters like [forwards, backwards, both, none]

Why is my keyframes animation only working one way?

I have a CSS keyframes animation that I'm using like so:
.content[docked=true] {
animation: dockContent ease var(--dock-animation-time);
animation-direction: normal;
animation-fill-mode: forwards;
}
.content[docked=false] {
animation: dockContent ease var(--dock-animation-time);
animation-direction: reverse;
animation-fill-mode: backwards;
}
When the docked attribute is set to true, it animates as expected. Afterwards, when the docked attribute is set to false, it doesn't animate and instead snaps to the initial values (0% -- it's running in backwards) as if there were no animation at all. The animation is still being run through though, because I am not setting the CSS rules back to their starting values anywhere except for the animation. After reverting the docked attribute to false, setting it to true again results in the same 'jump' with the expected end values but no transition or value interpolation. Why is this happening?
My animation is too elaborate to use transitions because it sets values in non-linear ways along its duration. That's exactly why I'd prefer not to have to make a second animation with all the values flipped.

Smooth transition to new CSS animation duration

I have a CSS-animated background position.
body {
background: linear-gradient(320deg, #000, #3ff);
background-size: 10000% !important;
animation: AnimationName 1s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes AnimationName {
0%{background-position:top left}
50%{background-position:bottom right}
100%{background-position:top left}
}
I have a range slider set up for the user to change the speed, by setting the animation-duration style property. The trouble is, the animation jerks to different parts of the animation as this property is changed. That is, if the animation-duration is 0.1s and it is changed to 5s over the course of a second or so, the background position is seemingly randomly popped around. You can see this for yourself in the fiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/x97adpe6/2/
I suspect this is happening as the browser is using some sort of time-based calculation to determine where the animation should be for the given animation duration, rather than offsetting the time based on where it is. That is, if the animation duration is changed from a long time, to a short time, and back to a long time, the effect is as if the animation was never changed from the long time.
What I would like to happen is the natural result of changing the speed of something. I don't need any tweening between speeds, but I do want the animation to continue on at the new speed from wherever it is at this moment.
Is this possible, short of re-implementing the whole animation in JavaScript?

How to make css element opacity switches from 0 to 1 in no time?

I am wondering whether there is already a way through CSS in order to make an element of opacity 0 turns to 1 without any transition time. In other words, I need to make an element which was totally unseen suddenly appears after 4 seconds. No fade-in or out. Just appear with the complete brighteness (opacity).
Use a combination of visibility and opacity:
transition:visibility 0s linear 0.5s,opacity 0.5s linear;
In this demo, hovering over the menu displays only after 0.5s.

How to start different elements on different keyframes of an animation in CSS

If I have a CSS animation and I want to create various instances of that animation but start at different stages of the animation how can I specify that.
I imagined something like this, second webkit line is pseudo code:
#cell1
{
width:100px;
height:100px;
-webkit-animation: pulse 35s infinite alternate;
-webkit-animation: pulse start at 25%;
}
As I understand the spec, a negative value for animation-delay would do the trick:
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-animations/#animation-delay
If the value for 'animation-delay' is a negative time offset then the animation will execute the moment it is applied, but will appear to have begun execution at the specified offset. That is, the animation will appear to begin part-way through its play cycle. In the case where an animation has implied starting values and a negative 'animation-delay', the starting values are taken from the moment the animation is applied.
EDIT: Indeed, this works with my chromium: http://jsfiddle.net/GvUzX/

Animating non-animatable properties with CSS3 transitions

In my app I'm animating the opacity of elements on the page with something like:
.s {
transition-property: opacity;
transition-duration: 250ms;
}
(with vendor-specific versions, of course). And then
.s.hidden {
opacity: 0;
}
So the animation starts when the hidden class is assigned. Problem is, mouse events are still detected on elements with opacity zero, which I don't want, so I need to either set visibility to hidden or display to none after the transition is finished. I would hope to be able to do something like:
.s {
transition-property: opacity, visibility;
transition-duration: 250ms;
transition-delay: 0, 250ms;
}
and then
.s.hidden {
opacity: 0;
visibility: hidden;
}
to use the CSS transition machinery to do this painlessly. As far as I can tell, that doesn't work because visibility is a non-animatable property. But other transition frameworks such as d3 do handle non-animatable properties, in the obvious way by simply setting the value when the transition starts, or when it ends.
The best I've been able to come up with is to use the transitionend event (and its browser-specific variants such as oTransitionEnd) to catch the end of the transition and set visibility at that point, but I'm wondering if there's any easier way, preferably sticking purely to CSS. Or, as the title of my question implies, are non-animatable properties just that?
visibility is an animatable property, see the spec.
Which means your .hidden class will work as you have described. Demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/ianlunn/xef3s/
Edit: the spec isn't perfectly clear:
visibility: if one of the values is ‘visible’, interpolated as a
discrete step where values of the timing function between 0 and 1 map
to ‘visible’ and other values of the timing function (which occur only
at the start/end of the transition or as a result of ‘cubic-bezier()’
functions with Y values outside of [0, 1]) map to the closer endpoint;
if neither value is ‘visible’ then not interpolable.
But this is what I believe it means:
visibility doesn't smoothly animate between a range of visible and hidden in the way that opacity animates between 1 - 0. It simply switches between visible and hidden at the start and end states of the transition.
Providing the transition is either going to or from visibility, then a transition will occur. If trying to transition between visibility: hidden and visibility: collapse for example, those values are "not interpolable" and the transition would not occur.
So in my example, opacity causes the element to fade out and then at the end of the transition, visibility snaps to hidden.
As a good alternative to display/visibility toggle, opacity:0 with pointer-events:none could be used.
