One image that scrolls over the mouse allows to insert very long images that slide up when you pass the mouse over.

It is ideal to animate images much longer than wide. This makes it possible not to monopolize all the space of a page while allowing a Internet interaction.

Such animation is often found in webdesign sites. It is ideal to display the page layout home page layout and build an original portfolio...

To understand better, I have prepared a video that shows the final result.

In this article, I will explain how to achieve this with the Divi Visual Builder.

1 – Prepare the portfolio images

First, you will have to be in possession of the images. They must be in portrait format and much longer than wide. For my example, I used several image sizes to see if it was not a problem with the scrolling effect on the flyover:

  • Image 1 : 1244px * 3996px
  • Image 2: 1244px * 3633px
  • Image 3 : 800px * 2537px

I advise you to use images of at least 800px wide. As for the length, this may differ but you will have to take it into account in your CSS. We will see this later, in the chapter "understand how to modify the code".

2 - Build the layout

Go to tab Pages > All Pages and add a new page (or edit an existing page). Activate the Divi Visual Builder.

Build section for images

Next:

  1. Add a SECTION STANDARD (in blue)
  2. Add a LINE 1 column (1/1) (green). You can insert a text module. This will allow you to display a title.
  3. Add New LINE (green) whose colonization is divided into 3
  4. In each column, you will add a module IMAGE

3 – Line settings and image modules

Before you go further, you have to make some adjustments so that The image effect that slides upwards works...

3.1 – Line settings

Section settings for an image that scrolls over the mouse

Open the settings of the green line that will host your images (tone wheel icon):

  • To the tab STYLE > DIMENSION « Pass this line in full width » = YES
  • To the tab ADVANCED > CSS ID and CLASSES : enter ad-wrap in the CSS CLASS field

Complete with recording your changes.

3.2 – The parameters of image modules

image module settings

Open the settings of each IMAGE module (tone wheel icon):

  • To the tab STYLE > ALIGNMENT : choose centered alignment
  • To the tab ADVANCED > CSS ID and CLASSES : enter ad-height-img-x in the CSS CLASS field. The "x" should be replaced with 1, 2 or 3 depending on your images (ad-height-img-1, ad-height-img-2, ad-height-img-3). Thus, you will need to assign a new nuemro for each image module.

Save your changes.

4 - Add CSS to get an image that scrolls over the mouse

Now that you have set your line and modules well, you will be able to copy and paste the following code into the tab Appearance > Custom > Additional CSS :

/* image scroll up - ligne 3 colonnes */

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_1
{
overflow: hidden;
height: 300px;
border:5px solid #BBB;
box-shadow: 5px 5px #7F32D3;
}

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_2
{
overflow: hidden;
height: 300px;
border:5px solid #BBB;
box-shadow: 5px 5px #FF2A62;
}

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_3
{
overflow: hidden;
height: 300px;
border:5px solid #BBB;
box-shadow: 5px 5px #00C4AA;
}

.ad-height-img-1, .ad-height-img-2, .ad-height-img-3
{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
height: auto;
transition: top 5s ease-out 0s;
}

.ad-height-img-1:hover
{
top: -850px;
}

.ad-height-img-2:hover
{
top: -750px;
}

.ad-height-img-3:hover
{
top: -800px;
}

@media screen and (max-width: 980px) {

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_1 {
height: 500px;
}

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_2 {
height: 500px;
}

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_3 {
height: 500px;
}

.ad-height-img-1:hover {
top: -1200px;
}

.ad-height-img-2:hover {
top: -1050px;
}

.ad-height-img-3:hover {
top: -1100px;
}

}

This code is indicative because you will have to modify it according to your needs...

5 - Understand how to modify the code

5.1 – Attention to .et_pb_column_1

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_1 => en fonction du nombre de colonnes et du nombre de sections dans votre page, la classe CSS .et_pb_column_1 peut changer. Vous devrez alors modifier le numéro pour .et_pb_column_2 - .et_pb_column_3 etc. N'hésitez pas à inspecter le code dans votre navigateur pour savoir sur quelle classe CSS agir.
{
overflow: hidden; => ne pas toucher
height: 300px; => vous pouvez modifier la hauteur de la boite de votre image si vous le souhaitez.
border:5px solid #BBB; => ceci n'est que du style, vous pouvez le supprimer ou le modifier.
box-shadow: 5px 5px #7F32D3; => ceci n'est que du style, vous pouvez le supprimer ou le modifier.
}

5.2 - Class .ad-height-img-x

.ad-height-img-1, .ad-height-img-2, .ad-height-img-3
{
position: absolute; => ne pas toucher
top: 0; => ne pas toucher
width: 100%; => ne pas toucher
height: auto; => ne pas toucher
transition: top 5s ease-out 0s; => vous pouvez changer la rapidité du scroll. Si vous trouvez que 5 secondes c'est trop rapide, augmentez cette valeur. Attention, au plus votre image est longue, au plus le temps de défilement sera rapide et inversement.
}

5.3 - Adapt to image length

.ad-height-img-1:hover {
top: -850px; => modifier cette valeur en fonction de la longueur de votre image. Si l'image est très longue, augmentez cette valeur, si l'image est courte, réduisez cette valeur.
}

.ad-height-img-2:hover {
top: -750px;
}

.ad-height-img-3:hover {
top: -800px;
}

As you see in the above code, you will need to adjust the value of the "top" according to the length of your images. If you use images with the same size and ratio, it's easier.

5.4 – Adapt code for small screens (responsible):

The media queries allow you to act on the appearance of certain elements depending on the screen sizes. This is one of the ways to manage responsive.

@media screen and (max-width: 980px) {

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_1 {
height: 500px; => en version mobile, je propose de passer la hauteur à 500px au lieu de 300px dans la version de bureau
}

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_2 {
height: 500px;
}

.ad-wrap .et_pb_column_3 {
height: 500px;
}

.ad-height-img-1:hover {
top: -1200px; => augmentez la valeur du "top" pour les versions mobiles. Vous devrez adapter chaque valeur en fonction de votre image.
}

.ad-height-img-2:hover {
top: -1050px;
}

.ad-height-img-3:hover {
top: -1100px;
}

}
