I'm trying to make a "fade-in fade-out" effect using the CSS transition. But I can't get this to work with the background image...
The CSS:
.title a {
display: block;
width: 340px;
height: 338px;
color: black;
background: transparent;
/* TRANSITION */
-webkit-transition: background 1s;
-moz-transition: background 1s;
-o-transition: background 1s;
transition: background 1s;
}
.title a:hover {
background: transparent;
background: url(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-p1nr1fkWKUo/T0zUp5CLO3I/AAAAAAAAAWg/jDiQ0cUBuKA/s800/red-pattern.png) repeat;
/* TRANSITION */
-webkit-transition: background 1s;
-moz-transition: background 1s;
-o-transition: background 1s;
transition: background 1s;
}
Take a look: http://jsfiddle.net/AK3La/
You can transition background-image. Use the CSS below on the img element:
-webkit-transition: background-image 0.2s ease-in-out;
transition: background-image 0.2s ease-in-out;
This is supported natively by Chrome, Opera and Safari. Firefox hasn't implemented it yet (bugzil.la). Not sure about IE.
The solution (that I found by myself) is a ninja trick, I can offer you two ways:
first you need to make a "container" for the <img>, it will contain normal and hover states at the same time:
<div class="images-container">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/400/200/animals/9/">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/400/200/animals/10/">
</div>
with CSS3 selectors http://jsfiddle.net/eD2zL/1/ (if you use this one, "normal" state will be first child your container, or change the nth-child() order)
CSS2 solution http://jsfiddle.net/eD2zL/2/ (differences between are just a few selectors)
Basically, you need to hide "normal" state and show their "hover" when you hover it
and that's it, I hope somebody find it useful.
Unfortunately you can't use transition on background-image, see the w3c list of animatable properties.
You may want to do some tricks with background-position.
I've figured out a solution that worked for me...
If you have a list item (or div) containing only the link, and let's say this is for social links on your page to facebook, twitter, ect. and you're using a sprite image you can do this:
<li id="facebook"></li>
Make the "li"s background your button image
#facebook {
width:30px;
height:30px;
background:url(images/social) no-repeat 0px 0px;
}
Then make the link's background image the hover state of the button. Also add the opacity attribute to this and set it to 0.
#facebook a {
display:inline-block;
background:url(images/social) no-repeat 0px -30px;
opacity:0;
}
Now all you need is "opacity" under "a:hover" and set this to 1.
#facebook a:hover {
opacity:1;
}
Add the opacity transition attributes for each browser to "a" and "a:hover" so the the final css will look something like this:
#facebook {
width:30px;
height:30px;
background:url(images/social) no-repeat 0px 0px;
}
#facebook a {
display:inline-block;
background:url(images/social) no-repeat 0px -30px;
opacity:0;
-webkit-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
-moz-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
-o-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
-ms-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
transition: opacity 200ms linear;
}
#facebook a:hover {
opacity:1;
-webkit-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
-moz-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
-o-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
-ms-transition: opacity 200ms linear;
transition: opacity 200ms linear;
}
If I explained it correctly that should let you have a fading background image button, hope it helps at least!
You can use pseudo element to get the effect you want like I did in that Fiddle.
CSS:
.title a {
display: block;
width: 340px;
height: 338px;
color: black;
position: relative;
}
.title a:after {
background: url(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-p1nr1fkWKUo/T0zUp5CLO3I/AAAAAAAAAWg/jDiQ0cUBuKA/s800/red-pattern.png) repeat;
content: "";
opacity: 0;
width: inherit;
height: inherit;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
/* TRANSISITION */
transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
-webkit-transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: opacity 1s ease-in-out;
}
.title a:hover:after{
opacity: 1;
}
HTML:
<div class="title">
HYPERLINK
</div>
If you can use jQuery, you can try BgSwitcher plugin to switch the background-image with effects, it's very easy to use.
For example :
$('.bgSwitch').bgswitcher({
images: ["style/img/bg0.jpg","style/img/bg1.jpg","style/img/bg2.jpg"],
effect: "fade",
interval: 10000
});
And add your own effect, see adding an effect types
Try this, will make the background animated worked on web but hybrid mobile app
not working
#-webkit-keyframes breath {
0% { background-size: 110% auto; }
50% { background-size: 140% auto; }
100% { background-size: 110% auto; }
}
body {
-webkit-animation: breath 15s linear infinite;
background-image: url(images/login.png);
background-size: cover;
}
Considering background-images can't be animated,
I created a little SCSS mixin allowing to transition between 2 different background-images using pseudo selectors before and after. They are at different z-index layers. The one that is ahead starts with opacity 0 and becomes visible with hover.
You can use it the same approach for creating animations with linear-gradients too.
scss
#mixin bkg-img-transition( $bkg1, $bkg2, $transTime:0.5s ){
position: relative;
z-index: 100;
&:before, &:after {
background-size: cover;
content: '';
display: block;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0; left: 0;
width: 100%;
transition: opacity $transTime;
}
&:before {
z-index: -101;
background-image: url("#{$bkg1}");
}
&:after {
z-index: -100;
opacity: 0;
background-image: url("#{$bkg2}");
}
&:hover {
&:after{
opacity: 1;
}
}
}
Now you can simply use it with
#include bkg-img-transition("https://picsum.photos/300/300/?random","https://picsum.photos/g/300/300");
You can check it out here:
https://jsfiddle.net/pablosgpacheco/01rmg0qL/
If animating opacity is not an option, you can also animate background-size.
For example, I used this CSS to set a backgound-image with a delay.
.before {
background-size: 0;
}
.after {
transition: background 0.1s step-end;
background-image: $path-to-image;
background-size: 20px 20px;
}
Salam, this answer works only in Chrome, cause IE and FF support color transition.
There is no need to make your HTML elements opacity:0, cause some times they contain text, and no need to double your elements!.
The question with link to an example in jsfiddle needed a small change, that is to put an empty image in .title a like background:url(link to an empty image); same as you put it in .title a:hover but make it empty image, and the code will work.
.title a {
display: block;
width: 340px;
height: 338px;
color: black;
background: url(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/59/Empty.png) repeat;
/* TRANSISITION */
transition: background 1s;
-webkit-transition: background 1s;
-moz-transition: background 1s;
-o-transition: background 1s;
}
.title a:hover{ background: transparent;
background: url(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-p1nr1fkWKUo/T0zUp5CLO3I/AAAAAAAAAWg/jDiQ0cUBuKA/s800/red-pattern.png) repeat;
/* TRANSISITION */
transition: background 1s;
-webkit-transition: background 1s;
-moz-transition: background 1s;
-o-transition: background 1s;
}

With Chris's inspiring post here:
https://css-tricks.com/different-transitions-for-hover-on-hover-off/
I managed to come up with this:
#banner
{
display:block;
width:100%;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center bottom;
background-image:url(../images/image1.jpg);
/* HOVER OFF */
#include transition(background-image 0.5s ease-in-out);
&:hover
{
background-image:url(../images/image2.jpg);
/* HOVER ON */
#include transition(background-image 0.5s ease-in-out);
}
}
This can be achieved with greater cross-browser support than the accepted answer by using pseudo-elements as exemplified by this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/19818268/2602816
I was struggling with this for a bit, I first used a stack of images on top of each other and every three seconds, I was trying to animate to the next image in the stack and throwing the current image to the bottom of the stack. At the same time I was using animations as shown above. I couldn't get it to work for the life of me.
You can use this library which allows for **dynamically-resized, slideshow-capable background image ** using jquery-backstretch.

I am transitioning a couple of background images. However, I am noticing that when if the user acts before the transition has fully taken affect, the transition is instant.
For example, I hover over the div and the image takes 1 second to completely transition. However, I remove the cursor .5s into the transition. So it transitions back to the original image but instead of smoothly transitioning, it changes instantly. How do I make it smooth at all times?
.class {
width:500px;
height:500px;
background-image:url("http://activite-paranormale.net/extended/photo/news/nature-harmony-girl.jpg");
-webkit-transition: all 1s ease 0;
-moz-transition: all 1s ease 0;
-o-transition: all 1s ease 0;
transition: all 1s ease 0;
}
.class:hover {
background-image:url("http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/22700000/Spring-beautiful-nature-22727146-500-500.jpg");
}
<div class="class"></div>
http://codepen.io/john84/pen/vEdPEW
fiddle
I changed ease to ease-in-out
edit: Firefox doesn't support this, but there are many workarounds, example:
fiddle
HTML:
<div class="class"></div>
<div class="class2"></div>
CSS:
.class {
position:absolute;
width:500px;
transition:all 500ms;
height:500px;
background-image:url("http://activite-paranormale.net/extended/photo/news/nature-harmony-girl.jpg");
}
.class2{
width:500px;
height:500px;
background-image:url("http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/22700000/Spring-beautiful-nature-22727146-500-500.jpg");
}
.class:hover {
opacity:0;
}
My work so far is here - http://jsfiddle.net/WDz6R/.
I'm trying to make each section of the accordion have an automatic height, but when i use 'height:auto' or a percentage instead of a pixel based height the sections are the correct height, but the transitions break.
Does a fixed height have to be used in order to use css transitions or is there another workaround?
This is the relevant part of the css:
#accordion section {
overflow:hidden;
height:220px;
}
#accordion section, #accordion .pointer, #accordion h1, #accordion p {
-webkit-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;
-ms-transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;
transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out;
}
Short answer, to animate it you need fixed heights. There's a sloppy max-height workaround shown here:
http://jsfiddle.net/WDz6R/3/
#accordion section.ac_hidden {
max-height:44px;
}
#accordion section {
overflow:hidden;
height:auto;
max-height: 400px;
}
Or use jQuery's slideUp() / slideDown()
I have 2 divs. When I hover the mouse over one div it expands changing the height. I want to make it display a text with fade in effect somewhere in the screen when I hover the mouse over that div and finally when I click on the div, I want to display another div or text somewhere in the screen again. This is the code I've created so far.
<style>
#container
{
width:212px;
position:fixed;
left:42.5%;
top:21.7%;
border: 0px solid red;
overflow: hidden;
}
#first
{
background-color:#fff;
width:67px;
height:212px;
-webkit-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s; /* For Safari 3.1 to 6.0 */
-moz-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
-ms-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
-o-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
transition:all 1s, transform 1s;
float:left;
}
#first:hover
{
height:354px;
}
#second
{
background-color:#fff;
width:45px;
height:212px;
-webkit-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s; /* For Safari 3.1 to 6.0 */
-moz-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
-ms-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
-o-transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
transition:all 1s, -webkit-transform 1s;
transition:all 1s, transform 1s;
float:left;
margin-left:15px;
}
#second:hover
{
height:354px;
}
</style>
<div id="container">
<div id="first"></div>
<div id="second"></div>
</div>
Any ides ? :/
Do you mean something like this?
http://jsfiddle.net/vLz3c/1/
I've created a pargraph inside the #second element, and made that show up while you hover the #second element.
It also increases the height.
EDIT:
http://jsfiddle.net/vLz3c/2/
Now i have used the jQuery function fadeIn when hovering the #second box.
EDIT 2:
http://jsfiddle.net/vLz3c/3/
Now the paragraph also fades out, when you move your mouse away from the #second box
EDIT: 3
As promised, when you click the #second element, the #third element fades in.

I'm using a very fancy webkit filter to make background-images grayscale, and on hover over the images become color.
Here's the filter
filter: none;
-webkit-filter: grayscale(0);
transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
-webkit-transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
As you can see, there's even a 'transition' property so that the image has a smooth fading transition into full color. The problem that I'm having is that the div I'm applying it to is also affecting the child text positioned inside the div, turning the text into grayscale as well. This is a problem because the text needs to be white, even when not being hovered over.
I've tried negating the filter with another one on the child text but it doesn't seem to work... Check out the fiddle
Fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/yMHm4/1/
This is not a problem of properties inheritance, as you can think.
The way filters work makes that imposible to fix changing attributes in the CSS: The element affected by the filter is rendered, all the children are rendered, and then the result (as an image) has the filter applied.
So the only alternatives left are:
1) Change the HTML, as Lowkase suggested
2) In your case, seems that all you want to make gray is the background image. In this case, you can leave the HTML as is, display the image in a pseudo element, and apply the filter to this pseudo element.
CSS
.cell{
opacity:0.7;
width:420px;
height:420px;
transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
-webkit-transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
}
.A1 {
position: relative;
}
.A1:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
background-image:url('http://i.imgur.com/NNKxZ5R.jpg');
filter: url(filters.svg#grayscale); /* Firefox 3.5+ */
filter: gray; /* IE6-9 */
-webkit-filter: blur(15px); /* Google Chrome, Safari 6+ & Opera 15+ */
z-index: -1;
}
#text {
color:#ffffff;
text-align:center;
font:18px sans serif;
text-decoration:none;
}
.cell:hover {
opacity:1.0;
}
.A1:hover:before {
filter: none;
-webkit-filter: grayscale(0);
transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
-webkit-transition: opacity .3s ease-in-out;
}
fiddle
I have also changed your filter to blur to make it more clear the the text is not affected by the filter. Since you had also some opacity set, the text still looked grayish just because you were seeing the gray under it.
Added example using brightness filter (for webkit)
demo 2
You had a couple of HTML errors with your br's, they should be br/, not /br.
The following solution takes the text container out of the image div and places it as an absolute positioned element:
http://jsfiddle.net/yMHm4/3/
#text {
position:absolute;
top:10px;
left:25%;
color:#ffffff;
text-align:center;
font:18px sans serif;
text-decoration:none;
}
<div id="container">
<div id="row">
<div class="cell A1"></div>
<div id="text">
<b>SPINDRIFT KIOSK</b>
<br/>
Digital Collage
<br/>
<i>Mikey</i>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You could probably use "not" selectors in your CSS but I am not sure how cross browser friendly they are. This solution is a more plain jane way to do it.
