How can I delay the playback of 4 separate infinite looping lottie animations in Webflow so that they all start at the same time once the page has finished loading?
To delay the playback of multiple Lottie animations in Webflow so that they all start at the same time once the page has finished loading, you can follow these steps:
Prepare your Lottie animations: Make sure you have the four separate Lottie animation files ready for use in your Webflow project. Each animation should be set up to loop infinitely.
Add the Lottie animations to your Webflow project: Drag and drop the Lottie component onto your Webflow canvas for each of the four animations. Go to the "Settings" panel for each Lottie component and upload the respective animation files.
Nest the Lottie animations: To ensure that the animations start at the same time, you can nest all four Lottie components inside a container element. This container will act as the parent element for all the animations.
Set up the interactions: With all the Lottie animations nested inside the container, you can now set up interactions to delay the playback.
- Select the container element and go to the Interaction panel.
- Create a new interaction and choose a trigger that suits your needs (e.g., page load).
- Add a separate action for each Lottie animation.
- For each action, set a delay that corresponds to the desired delay between animations (e.g., if you want a delay of 1 second, set a delay of 1000 milliseconds for each subsequent animation).
- Test and preview: Once you've set up the interactions, use the Webflow Preview mode or publish the site to see the delayed playback of the Lottie animations starting at the same time.
By using this method, you can ensure that the playback of your Lottie animations in Webflow is synchronized and starts after the page finished loading.
Additional Tips:
- If you want to make adjustments to the timing or speed of the animations, you can play around with the animation settings in the Lottie component or modify the interaction delays.
- Remember to optimize your Lottie animation files for web by exporting them with smaller file sizes to improve page loading times.
