I'm working on some sort of 'continuous' animation. Say a div translates from its current location 200px to the right. There's an option to change the distance of translation. While its animating, the user changes from 200px to 400px. The div should still move smoothly until it reaches its final point which is 400px from its previous location. I have done the basic moving animation, however I can't figure out how to make it continues without jumping when the distance changes.
Here's the codesandbox that I'm working on which best illustrates my point above and what I'm struggling with. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :))
Edit: Steps to reproduce the jumping problem:
Open the sandbox
Click the 'Toggle' button
Click the 'Add distance' button
While the red div animates, click 'Add distance' button again
And you should see the div jumping
There is probably a way to fix your code so that it works as you want, though I would suggest going in another direction. There are several animation libraries in React that can help you solve this problem. The resulting code is also going to be more portable.
For your specific need, I would suggest using a library called react-move. It is part of the react-tools which provides other cool libraries. I created a CodeSandbox with my take on your problem using react-move.
I only took the transform line for your code, since I wanted to focus on how you could integrate the library into your example.
To create the animation, I imported a component from react-move called Animate. It's the main component of the library. You use this component to wrap a function using the function as child pattern. This function will receive a state object with information regarding the animated element. It also consumes a start, update, enter, and leave function, that represents the state for those actions.
Inside you function as child function is where you define the animation. In our case, we want to translate the Box along its x axis, using the x value provided on the state object.
OBS: On my example the Box returns to the start (x === 0) when its offset value is bigger than the window's width.
I hope it helps.

I am stuck on implementing a UI in React.
I want to trigger a state change when an element crosses the centre of the viewport.
Here's a prototype of the design: https://cln.sh/sNhueq
In this prototype, the box on the right is sticky so it stays on the screen. And the list on the left moves as we scroll. I want to know when a list item crosses that red line so I can change the content of the box.
I am using framer-motion and react-intersection-observer.
Here's what I tried:
I tried using the viewport prop of <motion.div> but it triggers when the element enters the whole viewport. Yes, we can set root prop to an element's ref but for that the root element has to be an ancestor which the red line is not.
I tried react-intersection-observer but got the same results (because the ancestor limitation comes from the IntersectionObserver API in general).
I ultimately thought of some hacky non-performant ways like having a scroll listener, checking the bounds of root and target and finding if they collide. But I really don't want to do that heavy computing.
Is there any way with IntersectionObserver or something else that is performant?
Any help is appreciated. Thank you! :)
I try to recreate this effect with curtains-react but I can not find a shader that corresponds, and at the same time make the uniforms work ... If someone can give a lead, an article or an example with curtains-react, it would be of great help to me!
https://www.haritos.co/
It's a infinity draggable slider and when you click on a image, you access to the project, is the raison why I use curtains-react.
I also wanted to use curtains-js in my project. While browsing I found this codepen which is kind of what you need although the click-through is not implemented.
https://codepen.io/AlainBarrios/pen/bXdzmR
It uses curtains-js instead of curtains-react but I think it should be easly convertable. Put the onRender function in the useCurtainsEvent and add event listeners for the draggable events.
useCurtainsEvent("onRender", (curtains) => {})
I would first make a draggable list in react and then add each event of the example one by one. Just remember that animations like these take a lof of time and will to get right :)
I'm about to try to create a walkthrough for a web app created using React. I'm trying to think of the best way to do it, and have been thinking of using things like Material UI's modal component. I'm thinking I should also include some kind of arrow component that points the user to whichever element (button, link, etc) on my page I want them to click next. Also I will want to create a backdrop to fade the screen except for whichever element I want the users attention to be drawn to.
I feel like this must have been done many times before, but I can't find anything from searching. Obviously whenever I Google "react walkthrough/guide/intro" I just get suggestions for teaching basic React.
(NB: I'm not looking to do one of those intro sliders, as I want to provide a more detailed step-by-step)
The keyword your need to search for is 'tour'. Searching on google for 'react tour', I found 2 libraries for you:
React Joyride: https://github.com/gilbarbara/react-joyride | Live Demo
reactour: https://github.com/elrumordelaluz/reactour | Live Demo
Both seem to have similar features:
Instruction modal that explains about an element on the page.
The modal is positioned next to the highlighted element.
The window will scroll down to the highlighted element if it's outside of the viewport.
The element is highlighted to bring more attention while the rest of the page is in the backdrop.
There are steppers on the modal to indicate which step you're on.
So, I am using a similar code snippet as provided here(Material UI) :
Code sandbox
When we click on the top left menu icon, it opens the side drawer which shrinks the main body, I wanted it to be able to come on top of the main body, sort of like overlay you can say. I tried changing the z-index but that didn't seem to work. Will really appreciate some help
The official way to do this is use default value of variant (temporary) of Drawer component. In your example, variant you use is permanent.
Of course you need to change CSS a bit to adapt yourself.
API document here: https://material-ui.com/api/drawer/
Offical demo here also: https://material-ui.com/components/drawers/#temporary-drawer
swipeable navigation
Whats the best approach to make link area swipeable left and right?
Ive failed to find ready to use component that allows to do that.
Ive tried to use React Touch SyntheticEvent and transform translateX to navigation bar, but failed with calculations. So question is what are the ways to achieve that and is there any react components that can help me to make this work?
Maybe you need to have a look at there.
Although it only supports element swipeable up and down, you can refer to the code of how the author implements element swipeable with translate3d.
The main idea of swiper is to calculate the position of the element, and when to start translation. You can record scrollHeight/scrollWidth and offsetHeight/offsetWidth when you start move event, and compare the value of them when the event is end. Then you know where is the element, and you can control the transform of the element as you want.
So far as I know, maybe Iscroll is a good solution for you.
