Play by Scroll

    I use layerslider with Enfold. I purchased and configured layerslider so I can use "play by scroll" and it works, but not quite the way I want it to.

    The play by scroll functionality does not "immediately work". When you first scroll upon page load, you actually scroll a few pixels (which I want to avoid) before the layerslider seems to "activate" the play by scroll function and "rearranges" on the screen. You can see for yourself here: https://b35omk.myraidbox.de/

    However, I want the play to scroll to work immediately. To mimic what has been implemented here: https://www.bcg.com/de-de/default.aspx On this page there is no scrolling whatsoever - if you scroll upon pageload, the slide transition kicks in directly.

    Any idea?

    Hello Jens Wagner,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us. My name is Attila and I'm happy to assist you today. I appreciate your patience while we've been working towards your ticket.

    To eliminate unnecessary wait times with the play by scroll feature, you could use the Start immediately and Skip Slide Breaks options in the Slider Settings of the slider. You could also set the keyframes in a way where they do not interfere with the slider's start.

    Hi Attila,

    thank you for your answer. Maybe I was not describing the issue precise enough. 

    The slider starts immediately in the sense that all layers enter their opening transitions. No problem here.


    But when the user starts scrolling down, the screen actually starts scrolling. This is what I dont want.

    It is only when the user continues scrolling, that the play by scroll functionality kicks in and slides start to transition.

    I want the slides to start their transition upon the first scroll motion. So that the screen does not scroll at all.


    Do you know what I mean?


    I will send you login credentials in the next post, maybe you can have a look?

    Thank you for the feedback. This is how the play by scroll feature works currently, unfortunately there might be a small initial 'jump'. The play by scroll effect only initiates when the page scrolling reaches a certain point compared to the slider's position. Even if you put the slider at the top of the page, an extra scrolling might be needed to start it.

    Can we code something on our end to trigger the play by scroll feature upon pageload?

  • [deleted] replied

    At the moment there is no option to change this behavior. But we are planning to improve the play by scroll feature as well as adding new settings to it in future updates.

  • Jens Wagner replied

    Okay that also means play by scroll does not work if there is no space to scroll to beneath the layer (i.e. no scroll bar to the right on desktop computers).

    As mentioned in your other ticket, the dev team is currently working on improving certain elements of the play by scroll feature, and should be included to the next update if all goes well.
