Animation
In flux The animation system is actively developed. Steps may differ slightly in recent builds.
Animate a block
Section titled “Animate a block”- Select a block on the canvas.
- In the right sidebar, open the Settings tab.
- Scroll to the Animation section at the bottom.
- Choose an Effect from the dropdown (e.g. Fade In Up).
Optionally set a Trigger (e.g. On scroll into view), Delay, and Easing.
Available effects
Section titled “Available effects”| Effect | Description |
|---|---|
| Fade In | Opacity 0 → 1 |
| Fade In Up / Down / Left / Right | Fade + translate |
| Zoom In / Zoom In Up | Scale + opacity |
| Slide In (4 directions) | Translate only |
| Rotate In | Rotate + opacity |
| Bounce In | Overshoot spring |
| Spin (loop) | Continuous rotation |
| Pulse (loop) | Continuous scale pulse |
Copy & paste animation
Section titled “Copy & paste animation”To apply the same animation to multiple blocks:
- Configure the animation on one block.
- In the Settings tab header, click Copy animation (the copy icon).
- Select another block.
- Click Paste animation (the clipboard icon).
Use the Clear animation (minus icon) button to remove the animation from a block.
Site-wide animation defaults
Section titled “Site-wide animation defaults”Set the default duration, easing, and once behavior in Settings → Theme → Animation. Any block you drop onto the canvas inherits these defaults until you override them per-block.
- Duration — how long the animation plays (e.g.
500ms) - Easing — timing function (
ease-out,ease-in-out, or a customcubic-bezier(…)) - Once — when enabled, the animation plays once per page load; disable to replay on every scroll re-entry
Block is invisible after paste — the animation may have started in an opacity:0 state and not replayed. Click away and back to re-trigger the animation, or use Clear animation and re-apply.
Animation plays in the editor but not in preview — some entrance effects require the trigger to fire. In preview mode, scroll the block into view to confirm scroll-triggered animations work.
