Animations
H5mag features an easy to use animation system.
How to add an animation
- Click the element you want to animate.
- Click the animation halo-button
- Select the animation type you want
- Optional: you can customize the duration, and delay of the animation. You can also choose to animate the element at the same time with the previous element or after a previous element's animation is done. There is also an option to start the animation after a feedback form has been submitted.

Pop | Pops in and out (enlarges and shrinks a few times). | ||
Pulsation | Three times Bigger/harder |
Scales the element slightly before returning to its original position. It can also pulse three times (more attention) and pulse bigger/harder (enlarge more between pulses). | |
Swinging | Swings the element. | ||
Tada | Tada! | ||
Wobbling | Wobble, wobble. | ||
Subtle | From left From right |
Fade | The element has a very subtle movement and scales slightly, similar to the Ken Burns effect. Good for large photography to give some depth to your publication. |
Float | Float to left Float to right Play infinitely Bigger/harder |
The element floats a little bit up and down, left or right according to the direction. |
Animation clipping
*) The Dispense and Wipe animations use clipping to create these effects. Please keep this in mind when using these animation types, as content that sticks out of an animating section will not be visible during or after animations
