Hi,

Right now I am trying to change the conversation images on scroll down in the same position with smooth effects. I don't know how I can make this animation very smooth so that the User can read all the conversations very effectively.
And  On scroll up conversation image animation starts from first.

- I want to change the image in the same position with a smooth effect on scroll down.
- Image should be changed without any blink.
- sometimes when scrolling down images got invisible on scroll. It should be fadeout first image and fade in the next image in the same position with smooth effect.

I don't know but how could I achieve this effect? Does anyone know?

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, or what you mean by a smooth effect, but to avoid a blink between each, you'll want to cross fade the images--basically overlap the fade-out/fade-in animations. Something like: .add('fade0').to(".chat__1", { autoAlpha: 0 }, 'fade0').to(".chat__2", { autoAlpha: 1 }, 'fade0'). You may also consider just layering all the images over each other and fading opacity of top-layer to 0 as you drill down, that way you wont have any moments where to whole opacity is less than one.
The other issue with this is you're going to see two arms/speech bubbles on page at the same time for a moment, but that's more or less unavoidable, unless you setup a sprite. I'd also consider just setting scrub to true, at least initially until you get the desired effect.

Hi, @GreenSock Thanks for the response and it works for me.

But I have one more issue. Now I reset the animation on scroll up. When I scroll Up the animation at any point I go on the first image.
But It should be started from the first images. Let's suppose If I am on image 5 and I scroll up the screen the animation goes on image 1 and on scroll down it should restart from 1 image again. 

But now animation reset from first but on scroll down, it's not working from the initial stage. I hope you got my point :(

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. When I scroll up from anywhere, it goes to the previous image properly. I cannot see any strange behavior. 

 

Are you saying you WANT it to go out of order? Like if you scroll up even a little bit from any spot, it fades back to the very FIRST image even if the scrollbar is NOT all the way back to the beginning?

I'm totally confused. What do you mean? What's the difference between "reset" and "restart"? 

 

Are you saying that if you're on image 4 and you scroll up even a little bit, you want the scrollbar to go ALL the way back to the beginning and start from the very top? You can certainly use a scrollTo tween for that if you'd like.

Oh, I didn't see your code in there. Yeah, that won't work because you're only controlling the playhead of the timeline but since you've got it directly linked to the scrollbar position (scrub: true), it'll of course jump to the appropriate spot as soon as the user starts scrolling again. 

 

I assume you intended to do something more like this?:

Sorry, but we cannot troubleshoot live sites or offer general consulting services like that for free. It looks to me like you've got your scrollTo tween set to use a VERY long duration which makes it quite annoying for the user. 

 

If you need help, you'll need to either hire someone (you can post in the "Jobs & Freelance" forum) or post a minimal demo here that clearly illustrates the issue and ask a very specific GSAP-related question - we're happy to help with those). 

 

Good luck!
