I created my portfolio a few months ago and everything was working fine. After about half a year I reopened the code again and now it is not working correctly anymore. I had text show up above a canvas with scrollmagic.js and watching it unfold in the inspector it still seems to work (as in opacity is still changing) but it is not becoming visible. I tried both in Safari and Chrome.
I will put the parts of code here, I think may be relevant for this error.
<section id="wrapper">
<canvas class="canvasScreen intro">
<h1 class="hideit hello"><span class="head1">Dream.</span><span class="head2">Create.</span></h1>
<h1 class="showme">Hi, I'm XXX. <br/>
Media & Interaction Design Student. <br/>
I want to dream new interesting ideas and create fascinating tech.
</h1>
<div class="hideit container">
<div class="chevron"></div>
<div class="chevron"></div>
<div class="chevron"></div>
</div>
</canvas>
</section>
I added the Wrapper in hopes of fixing it but then I would not be here :) I also tried adding the z-index to no avail.
.canvasScreen{
z-index: -1;
height: 100vh !important;
width: 100vw !important;
}
.hello{
z-index: 1;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;
font-weight: 700;
font-size: 10vw;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
.showme{
z-index: 1;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
font-family: Poppins, sans-serif;
font-weight: 700;
font-size: 1.5vw;
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 0;
opacity: 0;
}
#wrapper{
min-height: 350vh;
}
And if it is necessary (as it seems to work):
//TEXTANIMATION
const textAnim = TweenMax.fromTo(text, 3, {opacity: 1}, {opacity: 0});
const scene2 = new ScrollMagic.Scene({
triggerElement: wrapper,
triggerHook: 0,
duration: 800,
})
.setTween(textAnim)
.addTo(controller)
I sadly get no Error codes. Anyone has an idea?
I moved the Text out of the Canvas in HTML. Now it works like before.
Still cannot really explain why it worked before but at least it does again. Hope it helps someone else in the future :)
