Image doesn't repeat - html

I was wondering why my background image is not repeating when I have background repeat set to repeat. I am using bootstrap, that is why there is a col-lg-6 there. I am a new to coding and I wanted to test my skills by making an exact copy of another website. This is the website. If you go to that, you can see exactly want I want.
.image-div {
overflow: hidden;
}
#float {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
background:url(https://assets.maccarianagency.com/the-front/web-screens/home/home-hero-bg-dark.png);
background-repeat: repeat;
-webkit-animation: moving-img 7s infinite linear;
animation: moving-img 7s infinite linear;
}
#keyframes moving-img {
0% {
transform: translate(0px, 0px) rotate(-15deg) scale(1);
}
100% {
transform: translate(-400px, -600px) rotate(-15deg) scale(1);
}
}
<div class="col-lg-6 image-div" style="height: 80vh; width: 50vw;">
<div id="image"></div>
</div>

One way of thinking of this is that there is a continuous scroll upwards on the image div, and then we rotate that div 15%.
First therefore we need to get a continuous scroll. This can be achieved by putting both a before and after pseudo element on the image div which have the required background. These then both get animated upwards, one starting at top: 0 one starting at top: 100%. That way the scroll is continuous - the after pseudo element follows up immediately after the before one.
So far so good, but when we rotate the image div, there are gaps where the parent div shows through. So we make the before and after pseudo elements twice the size in both directions, get their background images repeated and adjust their positions so they always cover the parent div. The parent is also given overflow: hidden so we don't see the extra bits.
Here is a working snippet. Note that the choice of having the background images 30% of width is arbitrary - change it to what you want.
Note also that the website that is to be copied has a bug, though minor. Every so often you see a slight jerk in the scrolling. We have overcome that problem here by having the two sets of background animate independently so as the second one gets to the top, the first takes on opacity 0 for a split second as it repositions itself back to the top. This fools us into thinking it's all continuous. That website has also put a 'sloping' white over part of the div but that was not part of the question asked here.
.container {
}
.image-div {
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
#image {
position: absolute;
transform: rotate(-15deg) translateX(-25%) translateY(-25%);
height: 200%;
width: 200%;
overflow: hidden;
}
#image::before, #image::after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
background-size: 30% auto;
background-image:url(https://assets.maccarianagency.com/the-front/web-screens/home/home-hero-bg-dark.png);
background-repeat: repeat repeat;
-webkit-animation: moving-img 7s infinite linear;
animation: moving-img 7s infinite linear;
z-index: 1;
}
#image::after {
top:100%;
}
#keyframes moving-img {
0% {
transform: translate(0px, 0px);
opacity: 1;
}
99.95% {
transform: translateY(-100%);
opacity: 1;
}
100% {
transform: translate(0, 0);
opacity: 0;
}
}
<div class="col-lg-6 image-div" style="height: 80vh; width: 50vw;">
<div id="image"></div>
</div>

Try below code. Let me know if you succeed.
<style>
.image-div {
overflow: hidden;
}
#float {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
background:url(https://assets.maccarianagency.com/the-front/web-screens/home/home-hero-bg-dark.png);
background-repeat: repeat;
-webkit-animation: moving-img 7s infinite linear;

}
#keyframes moving-img {
0% {
transform: translate(0px, 0px) rotate(-15deg) scale(1);
}
100% {
transform: translate(-400px, -600px) rotate(-15deg) scale(1);
}
}
</style>
<div class="col-lg-6 image-div" style="height: 80vh; width: 50vw;">
<div id="float"></div>

Problem: Getting a seamless marquee effect with an img to work, but it restarts visibly

I've been trying to get a marquee effect with a fog image to work for several days now. I tried several tutorials (videos and written ones), but the effect keeps visibly skipping/restarting and the effect is not seamless. The image itself is 1000px wide and is loopable. The two fog images are different and move at a different speed to have a better effect.
I did manage to get it to work with text, with the help of another tutorial, but the img version still poses problems. To clarify: The images are displayed, they move properly, but at some point the animation restarts/skips/jumps instead of seamlessly repeating the images.
My current version looks like the following (its a vue project):
.fog-container {
top: 0;
height: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
z-index: 0;
}
.fog-img {
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
width: 300vw;
}
.fog-img-first {
animation: marquee 120s linear infinite;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-size: contain;
}
.fog-img-second {
animation: marquee 60s linear infinite;
background-position: center;
background-size: contain;
background-repeat: repeat;
}
#keyframes marquee {
0% {
transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
}
100% {
transform: translate3d(-200vw, 0, 0);
}
}
<v-main>
<div class="fog-container">
<div
:style="{'background-image':
`url(${require('./assets/pictures/background/fog_1.png')})`}"
class="fog-img fog-img-first"
/>
<div
:style="{'background-image':
`url(${require('./assets/pictures/background/fog_2.png')})`}"
class="fog-img fog-img-second"
/>
</div>
</v-main>

Slide long image horizontally (full screen)

Could do with some help.
I need to slide a long image horizontally once and then back... I've followed a tutorial here https://css-tricks.com/creating-a-css-sliding-background-effect/ and its all working. My problem is I want the sliding image to be fullscreen (the image height needs to fit the browser viewpoint). Current image is 7676 x 3939. background-size: cover was an option but image is too large so it doesn't fit height-wise. So I'd like half the image (3838px - fullscreen) to show initially then slide to the other half and then back.
Would appreciate some assistance. Below is my code. Thanks.
.wrapper {
overflow: hidden;
}
.sliding-background {
background: url("long-image.jpg") center;
height: 100vh;
width: 7676px;
animation: slide 3s linear 1;
}
#keyframes slide {
0%{
transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
}
50%{
transform: translate3d(-3838px, 0, 0);
}
100%{
transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
}
}
Try add position relative or absolute to .sliding-background
You could also try animating the background position instead of the element itself. Then you should make your container full screen, like this:
body,
html {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#wrapper {
overflow: hidden;
}
.sliding-background {
background-image: url("https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/93/Denali_National_Park_Polychrome_Mountains_Wide_17350px.jpg");
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-size: cover;
height: 100vh;
width: 100vw;
animation: slide 45s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes slide {
0% {
background-position: 0 0;
}
50% {
background-position: 100% 0;
}
100% {
background-position: 0 0;
}
}

CSS resizes inconsistently when browser zoomed

I'm working on a simple CSS animation and came across a curious problem.
When animating several small divs, if I zoom in or out on Chrome/Firefox the heights of the divs becomes inconsistent - despite them all sharing the same size styles.
Is there any way to address this using CSS? I want the bars to maintain a consistent height without regard to the zoom level. I realize this is something of an edge case, but want to cover as many bases as possible!
Example is here.
HTML
<div class='animation-box animate'>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
</div>
CSS
.animation-box {
width: 100px;
}
.animation-bar {
animation-duration: 3s;
animation-iteration-count: infinite;
animation-name: bargraph;
animation-timing-function: linear;
background-color: #0d97c1;
height: 3px;
margin: 2px;
}
#keyframes bargraph {
0% {
width: 100%;
}
50% {
width: 10%;
}
100% {
width: 100%;
}
}
What about a simplification with only one element and less of code:
.animation-bar {
animation: bargraph 1.5s infinite linear alternate;
width: 100px;
height: 25px;
background-image: linear-gradient(#0d97c1 50%, transparent 50%);
background-position:0 0;
background-size: 100% 5px;
background-repeat: repeat-y;
}
#keyframes bargraph {
0% {
background-size: 100% 5px;
}
100% {
background-size: 10% 5px;
}
}
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
This is a problem of subpixel rendering. The issue here is that when you are zooming, the space between two bars will have to snap to a given pixel on your screen.
If you have a 3px margin # 150% zoom, the computed space is 4,5px. Meaning that the zoomed space on screen will be inconsistently rendered at 4 or 5px.
On a regular CPU computed dom, your bar will be placed at the closest value, producing those weird gaps.
What you could do to minimize the effect is applying some GPU rendered CSS (opposed to the regular CPU rendering) which is way better at rendering subpixel graphics.
One way of doing that is applying transforms.
.animation-box {
width: 55px;
margin: 0 15px 0 -5px;
}
.animation-bar {
animation: bargraph 1s infinite linear;
transform-origin: top left;
height: 3px;
background-color: #0d97c1;
margin-bottom: 3px;
}
#keyframes bargraph {
0% {
transform: scaleX(1);
}
25% {
transform: scaleX(.8);
}
50% {
transform: scaleX(.6);
}
75% {
transform: scaleX(.8);
}
100% {
transform: scaleX(1);
}
}
<div class='animation-box animate'>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
<div class="animation-bar"></div>
</div>
I recommend an excellent article on Smashing Magazine on that topic : CSS GPU Animation: Doing It Right

SVG spinner does not rotate on Origin

I am using an img tag wrapped by a div to display a svg spinner. The div has a rotate animation on it. Do you know why its not spinning on the origin and why are the inline-spinners overlapping?
I cannot use SVG animationTransform because IE does not support it. Since its a simple spinner, I was hoping to rotate just the div and get the loading effect.
Here's the plunkr demo:
https://plnkr.co/edit/jiuI4rlETsNHN1yLbG2k?p=preview
<div class="spinner">
<img src="spinner.svg" alt="">
</div>
<div class="spinner">
<img src="spinner.svg" alt="">
</div>
<h4>Inline Spinners</h4>
<div class="spinner-inline">
<img src="spinner.svg" alt="">
</div>
<div class="spinner-inline">
<img src="spinner.svg" alt="">
</div>
/* Styles go here */
body{
background: #444;
color: white;
}
.spinner{
display: block;
height: 50px;
width: 50px;
animation: spin 2s linear infinite;
transform-origin: 50% 50%;
}
.spinner-inline{
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
width: 10px;
animation: spin 2s linear infinite;
transform-origin: 50% 50%;
}
#keyframes spin{
0% {transform: rotate(0deg);}
100% {transform: rotate(360deg);}
}
Update:
.spinner *{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.spinner-inline *{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
Adding above CSS for child elements helped a little but the inline spinners still dont spin on origin.
The reason your inline-spinners have an offset in the transform origin is because the default line-height (28px) takes over your height, so resetting that you solve the origin problem:
.spinner-inline{
display: inline-block;
height: 10px;
line-height:0;/*****/
width: 10px;
animation: spin 2s linear infinite;
transform-origin: 50% 50%;
}
https://plnkr.co/edit/mW7BamvPST89ufqNyE8N?p=preview
I looked at your plunkr, although I don't believe I can answer the origin question, the inline spinners is an easy fix.
You have the width and height set to 20px (which is only half of their actual size).
Set your spinner-inline css to:
.spinner-inline{
display: inline-block;
height: 40px;
width: 40px;
animation: spin 2s linear infinite;
transform-origin: 50% 50%;
}
And they will no longer overlap.
*Alternatively, it looks like setting this does make the spinners spin on origin as well.

Css animations - animation is slow and jiggles

I wanted to ask, what is wrong with this CSS code? It is used to animate background image - zoom effect.
#media (min-width: 1000px) {
.anim-on {
background-size: 110% 110%;
background-position: center center;
animation: shrink 12s infinite alternate;
}
.anim-out {
background-size: 120% 120%;
background-position: center center;
animation: small 6s infinite alternate;
}
#keyframes shrink {
0% {
background-size: 110% 110%;
}
100% {
background-size: 100% 100%;
}
}
#keyframes small {
0% {
background-size: 100% 100%;
}
100% {
background-size: 110% 110%;
}
}
}
This code generates nice effect, but i saw, that on slower machines, affect is bad.
What is wrong? Or maybe someone has better idea, how create this effect, in better technique?
Background size is a visual property and so any change to its value would cause repainting to occur. Painting is a very expensive operation and is bound to have an impact on the performance in low end machines. One way to overcome this would be to use CSS transform (scale to be precise) instead of background-size change to produce the animation.
Snippet which will cause performance impact:
The below snippet uses the same animation as in the question. When you run this snippet and inspect it using Chrome Dev tools (by enabling "Show Paint Rects" option), you'd see that both images have a paint rect associated with them (green or red colored box) and that as the animation is happening the box keeps blinking (or stays as-is). This indicates that a repaint is happening often and thus it impacts performance.
.anim-on,
.anim-out {

width: 200px;

<div class='anim-on'></div>
<div class='anim-out'></div>
Snippet which will cause lesser performance impact:
In the below snippet, I have added the background-image to a pseudo-element and then used scale transform on it to produce the zoom-in/out effect. The parent's overflow: hidden setting prevents the animation from affecting its size. If you inspect this with Chrome Dev tools you'd see that the green or red colored box appears only once when the page is loaded and goes away. This indicates that there is no further repaint is happening during the animation itself and hence it is better from a performance point of view. You'd also notice that this animation is more smoother than the earlier one.

I edited Henry code, now css is reusable, so user can add background image to element via CMS, and css code will do the rest:
.anim {

overflow: hidden;
**background-size: 0px!important;**
}
.anim:after {
position: absolute;

background-size: cover !important;
**background: inherit;**

}
.anim:after {
animation: shrink 12s infinite alternate;
}
#keyframes shrink {
