Limited availability during the holidays
Another busy year is coming to its end, and an exciting year lies ahead. In order to get ready for a fresh new start, our team will spend a few days' rest during the winter holidays. Over the holiday break, we will have reduced staffing from December 20th, 2025, to January 4th, 2026, so please be patient if you do not receive a response as quickly as you normally would.
We send our warmest wishes for happiness, health, and success throughout the coming year. Thank you for your continued support, and may you have a peaceful and blessed Happy Holidays!
I am trying to create my first project / slide.
Here is basically what I am trying to do — this was done in another plugin that just didn't cut it.

One of your support representatives helped me when I was trying to decide whether or not to purchase LayerSlider. He suggested I would be best to implement this as a single scroll scene.
Would it be one scroll scene or one slide? Or both?
I am struggling a bit and not sure where to start with questions but here is what I am confused about right now.
1. I have 3 elements that should be there as soon as the presentation scrolls into view ("process" "Spanning all three dimensions" and the first pagination image, I don’t want these elements to transition in, I just want them to be there. How do I do that?
2. One those elements should just always be there, it shouldn’t transition out at all and should still be there when you transition past the slideshow altogether. How do I do that?
3. Within a slide timeline, I only seem to have a few time “anchors” for transitions: opening transition starts, opening transition completes, loop starts, loop completes, opening and loop transitions complete. Thankfully, the presentations I am putting together only have 2 or 3 “stages”. If I had more, would I need to use another slide?
4. Since the size of the canvas appears to be in pixels, I am completely confused about how this presentation will adapt to other screen sizes. Does the plugin just kind of ad lib that?
I will probably have more questions. I don’t want to pepper you with two many tickets, especially over a long weekend, so I will try to figure this out on my own until I hear from you.
Thank you so much
Will
Hello Will,
I’ve created a test Scroll Scene for you — you can import it into LayerSlider and take a look at the settings I used to see how everything is configured.

Thank you George. I will try to move forward with these answers but I was unable to successfully import the demo you sent.
It seems that it was created with a newer version of LayerSlider so I got a warning. Is it possible you are working with an update that has not been released?
Thank you so much
Will
Hi again George
Thank you for you answers. I am afraid you didn't mention how to do a simple "fade out" transition. There is no simple preset for either fade out or fade in without adding a "swing" or a "bounce" or some such addition and I can't figure out how to do it manually.
After that there is the question of timing but it is hard to make sense of the timing if I cannot make layers "disappear" on command. So please let me know how to configure a simple "fade-out".
I have created a temporary login link for you https://staging.mikaelmeir.com/wp-admin/?wtlwp_token=570f34c1c059c14b4d4ce9d212cd72989b67a85178c963671695d88c572189a7ec40c8840bcf933cd2621dbd56fd434d418c0439f5e2413b38cb78b9bab9ba7e
If you are looking into one of these slideshows, or helping me move it along. Please look at the one that says "do not touch" (that note was for someone else). If you do make changes, please do let me know exactly what you have done so I can learn how to use your plugin. Maybe a Loom video of any changes would be helpful.
Here is the link to the Figma file I am working from: https://www.figma.com/design/UN4WpMIZkv41la01iXuDgX/Mikael-Meir-Website?node-id=12-138&t=ngxRf7VjQKFNr0Vo-1 (it is on the Website panel)
This first slideshow is in the Figma file on the Leaders page and you will see it's 3 "stages" there (you can also reference the Loom I sent earlier) https://www.loom.com/share/b511693a3d7149d79dd65beb97de8c6a
I am hopeful we can implement at least one of these in the next couple of days and that the remaining ones will be easier after the first one is done.
Thank you so much
Will
Hello Will,
By default, any newly added layer will already fade in, as long as the Fade option is enabled in the Opening Transition. The easing setting (like “swing” or “bounce”) only defines how the animation progresses over time — not whether it’s a fade or something else. For scroll-driven scenes, I’d recommend using simpler easing types like linear or easeInOutSine for more controlled, subtle animations.
Now, for a simple fade-out, you’ll need to configure the Ending Transition of the layer:
Do not change the layer’s properties (like position or size) — this way only the opacity will animate.
Set the easing to linear or easeInOutSine for a smooth effect.
Make sure the Ending Transition is not set to trigger on slide change, but rather to run after the Opening Transition completes (especially important in Scroll Scene workflows).
This setup will ensure the layer fades out cleanly and predictably when its scene ends.

Thanks again for the access. I was able to log in to the wp-admin area, but unfortunately the admin interface is extremely slow on my end — to the point where even the LayerSlider editor isn’t loading properly.
Because of this, I’m currently unable to make the necessary changes or review the slider setup in detail.

Hi George
Yes, I noticed some terrible performance on my server this afternoon. It should be resolved by now, please try to access the admin again.
Thank you so much
Will
Hi Will,
I’ve duplicated your project and applied the requested settings. Let me know if everything looks good to you.
