How can I trigger a Webflow animation using IX2 and JavaScript after an AJAX call finishes?
To trigger a Webflow animation using IX2 and JavaScript after an AJAX call finishes, you can follow these steps:
Set up your animation in Webflow: Start by creating your desired animation using the Interactions panel in Webflow. To trigger this animation using JavaScript, select the element you want to animate and add an interaction to it. Configure the animation properties such as duration and easing.
Create a JavaScript function: Write a JavaScript function that will be triggered after the AJAX call finishes. This function will be responsible for triggering the Webflow animation.
Trigger the animation: Inside your JavaScript function, you can use the
Webflow
namespace provided by the Webflow library to trigger the animation. You can use theWebflow.require
method to ensure that the Webflow library has loaded before triggering the animation.Add the JavaScript function to the AJAX callback: In the AJAX callback (the function that gets executed after the AJAX call completes), invoke the JavaScript function that triggers the Webflow animation. This will ensure that the animation is triggered only after the AJAX call finishes.
Here's an example of how the code might look:
function ajaxCallback() { // AJAX call completed // Trigger the Webflow animation triggerWebflowAnimation();}function triggerWebflowAnimation() { // Make sure the Webflow library has loaded Webflow.require('ix2').init(); // Trigger the animation using Webflow's API var animation = Webflow.require('ix2').createAnimation(); animation.start();}// Make your AJAX call$.ajax({ // AJAX configurations here success: ajaxCallback});
By following these steps, you can trigger a Webflow animation using IX2 and JavaScript after an AJAX call finishes.
