jquery latest Tooltip Styles

Today we’d like to share some tooltip styles and effects with you. Tooltips are normally used for providing some kind of extra information and they can be found in almost every website. Those tiny little helpers offer a great opportunity to add some subtle and unique effects to any design. So today we want to show you some possibilities of showing those elements in style.

We only use CSS transitions via hover and also some SVGs to create unique shapes. Icons are from Font Awesome and the profile pictures are from the Random User Generator.

Please note that we use some modern CSS properties, like 3D transforms, which only work in modern browsers.

There seems to be an issue with using a percentage-based transform-origin value for SVG paths in Firefox. You might not be able to see the correct transform effect, so we recommend using Google Chrome to see all the examples working correctly.

jQuery Latest dialog box (POPUP)

Last year we posted some inspiration for modal window effects and today we’d like to share some fresh ideas with you. Styles and trends change and this calls for different effects that fit to a modern UI. This new set contains some subtle animations and also some more fancy SVG morphing techniques for dialogs.

Please note that this was tested in latest browser versions only.

Please also note that IE11 does not seem to support vieport units in calc() which we use in some of the animation transforms.

jQuery Latest Drag and Drop

Sometimes we wonder how to pack all those possible actions into a UI. From buttons to drop-downs to menus—there are certainly many possibilities. Another idea is to employ some kind of drag and drop interaction. Today we want to share some explorations in these kind of interactions with you. The idea is to allow to drag an item and then show some droppable area that stands for certain actions. This saves a lot of UI space and gives an interesting dynamic to interactions. There are many applicable scenarios; think of categorizing and organizing content (i.e. like the Pinterest boards) or performing any type of actions (like in mail apps or in content management systems).
The demos are just some experimental ideas of how these kind of interactions can be imagined. We’ve based our demo script on Draggabilly by David DeSandro, and extended some of the behavior, i.e. allowing to scroll and treating drop actions. There are also other libraries out there, like for example jQuery UI but Draggabilly is very solid and it supports touch and multi-touch, which is really great. We’re also using Font Awesome for the icons and based the box-shadow expansion effect in the icon demo on the one seen in Palettab, an awesome Chrome extension that will give you color inspiration with every fresh tab.

jQuery latest Sliding Header Layout

Today we’d like to show you how to create a simple grid layout with a special header effect. The idea is to initially show a fullscreen image with a title and a toggle button that allows to change the view to a grid. The header with the fullscreen image animates upwards and reveals a grid of image anchors with a title. We’ll be using some techniques like Flexbox and CSS Transitions for modern browsers. For the trigger button that toggles the views, we’ll create a vector graphic with two groups, one containing a little grid and the other one containing a cross. These two groups will have their visibility toggled according to the current view (fullsreen header or grid).

Latest jQuery Image hover effects

We’ve updated and added some more effects to the Hover Effect Ideas. The second set contains some fresh styles that include the Font Awesome icon font and SVG backgrounds for some effects. The structure of the demos was a fullscreen grid before, but now we’ve adjusted it to contain single rows of figures where it’s easier to see how an effect looks in its normal state and when hovering.
As in the previous set, we try to make the effects as smooth as possible, not using any transition on properties that affect layout or painting. But trying out new things (like we do with SVG in the second set), there could be some glitches in Firefox on Windows (tiny border of SVG shown).
Please note that the effects have been tested in the latest versions of modern browsers. They might not work as expected in older browsers; you’ll have to provide a suitable fallback if you’d like to support those.

New jQuery Search Engine Effect

View demo     Download source

Today we’d like to share a simple morphing effect with you. The idea is to have a search input in the upper right corner of the page and once the input is clicked, the whole search element expands to a fullscreen overlay. The fullscreen overlay has a bigger search input and some elements for showing related items or the search results. Note that we just made a dummy that does not actually search dynamically.
For the morphing search effect we use several transitions that animate the dimensions of the search input, the font size and some other elements. Please note that it’s very experimental and only tested in the latests versions of modern browsers.
The background image used in the demo is from Unsplash and the icons are from Font Awesome.

jQuery Elastic SVG Menu

View demo      Download source
Today we’d like to share some inspiration for adding elasticity to elements. The idea is to integrate an SVG element into a component and then animate it from one path to another with an elastic animation. Using SVGs like this can make things like menus, buttons or other elements more interesting and make the interaction look more organic with a natural feel to it. It’s of course important to keep things subtle and not exaggerate the bounciness. The nice thing is that we can give a more “realistic” interaction feedback to the user. Especially touch feedback can benefit from using this kind of effect. Based on this idea, we’ve created some inspirational examples of contexts where a morphing shape animation enhancement could make sense.

Slider Gallery with jQuery

This tutorial is about creating a creative gallery with a slider for the thumbnails. The idea is to have an expanding thumbnails area which opens once an album is chosen. The thumbnails will scroll to the end and move back to the first image. The user can scroll through the thumbnails by using the slider controls. When a thumbnail is clicked, it moves to the center and the full image preview opens. Navigating though the images will make them slide in and out from the sides, moving the underlying thumbnails container. When the preview is closed, the full image will fade back to the thumbnail.
