Understanding Motion Effects in JupiterX
Introduction to Motion Effects
Motion Effects in JupiterX are designed to add dynamic and visually appealing animations to your website. These effects provide an array of options for creating captivating experiences as users interact with your web pages. You don't need custom code or external libraries, as everything is neatly available within the Elementor editor in JupiterX.
Scrolling Effects Overview
Scrolling Effects are used to introduce animations based on the user's scrolling behavior. These range from classic parallax movements to subtle transparency changes. Here are some of the effects you can apply:
- Vertical Scroll: Elements move up or down at a different speed from the page scroll, adding depth to your layout.
Horizontal Scroll: Elements glide left or right in response to the viewer scrolling up or down, creating a dynamic horizontal movement.
Transparency: Control the opacity of elements based on scroll position. You can make elements fade in or out or even cycle between visible and invisible. The four directions available are:
- Fade in
- Fade out
- Fade out in
- Fade in out
- Blur: Similar to Transparency, Blur allows elements to become less clear and more focused as the user scrolls.
- Rotate: Have elements rotate around a set point or center as the page is scrolled, introducing a spinning effect.
- Scale: Elements can grow or shrink in size contingent upon scroll progress, ideal for engaging background effects.
Tip: Use the 'Apply effects on' setting to choose whether the motion effects apply on mobile, desktop, or tablet devices. Remember, mouse effects will only influence desktop devices.
Mouse Effects Explained
These effects are related to the user's mouse interactions:
- Mouse Track: Create interactive elements that move based on the cursor's position, adding an immersive depth effect.
- 3D Tilt: Similarly, the 3D Tilt will make elements tilt in response to mouse movement, offering a pseudo-3D experience.
Browser Compatibility for Motion Effects

Addressing User Preferences and Compatibility Issues
- JupiterX honors the user's preference for reduced motion, automatically disabling motion effects when such settings are detected on the user's device.
- Safari users may occasionally encounter issues with jQuery, leading to problems like disappearing elements or error messages. To mitigate these issues, you might need to adjust motion effects settings or remove conflicting animations.
Important: Always test your website's motion effects across different browsers and devices to ensure a seamless user experience.
