How to Add Scrolling Blur Effect to Elements using JupiterX
Adding a dynamic blur effect to elements on your website can create a visually engaging experience for your visitors. Let’s go through how to apply scrolling effects in JupiterX, particularly the blur effect, so you can easily implement this feature onto your pages.
Getting Started with Blur Effect
To add a blur effect to elements as the user scrolls, follow these steps:
- Open your page with Elementor Page Builder by clicking on 'Edit with Elementor'.
- Select the element to which you want to add the motion effect.
- In the 'Advanced' section, expand the 'Motion Effects' panel.
Configuring Scrolling Effect - Blur
- Enable Scrolling Effects: Slide the 'Scrolling Effects' switch to 'ON'.
- Blur: Click the pencil edit icon next to 'Blur'.
- Direction: You have four options:
- Fade In – Makes the element go from blurry to clear.
- Fade Out – Turns the element from clear to blurry.
- Fade Out In – The element becomes clear, goes blurry, then clear again.
- Fade In Out – The element starts blurry, becomes clear, then blurry again.
- Level: Set the peak blur intensity with a range from 0 to 10.
- Viewport: Adjust the beginning and end points of the blur effect based on the height of the visible part of the device screen (viewport).
Additional Settings
- Apply Effects On: Here, you can choose whether the effect will apply on Desktop, Tablet, and/or Mobile devices.
- Effects Relative To: Decide whether the effect will be relative to the 'Default' setting, the 'Viewport', or the 'Entire Page'.
Pro Tip: For an interesting interaction, try setting the Direction as 'Fade In Out' with the viewport settings from 30 to 60. You'll see the element start sharply, turn blurry as it hits 30% of the viewport, maintain that level until 60%, and then sharpen up as you continue scrolling.
Testing Your Settings
Always make sure to preview your work by clicking the 'Preview' button on the bottom panel and scrolling the page to observe the effect. Make adjustments as necessary, and don’t forget to save your changes!
Remember, the key to a successful motion effect is subtlety. Too much blur or a very high level can be overwhelming for your visitors. Play around with settings, and keep the user experience in mind.
Lastly, incorporating motion effects can dramatically change the way users interact with your website, so use them smartly to enhance engagement.
By following these simple steps, you can create beautiful, interactive elements with blur effects in JupiterX that respond to user scrolling. It's a great way to make your website stand out and deliver a professional, polished look. Enjoy experimenting with these effects to see what works best for your design!
