Note; Start and End range will depend on the number of images you have in your sequence.

Start Animation – You can add different start animations to the element.

End Animation –  You can add different end animations to the element as well.

Related Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my sticky sections are not appearing in the image scroll sequence?

If your sticky sections are not showing, ensure that the Z-index of the content widget is set higher than the Scroll Sequence widget, which defaults to 1. This is crucial because a lower Z-index can cause your sticky sections to be hidden behind other elements. Additionally, check that you've correctly set the Section ID in the sticky section settings to match the content widget's ID.

What is the best way to position sticky sections in my image scroll sequence?

To effectively position sticky sections, use the Top (%) setting to manage their vertical placement. This allows you to control how far from the top of the viewport the sticky content appears. Setting a minimum height for the section or container with the Scroll Sequence widget is also important if your content is not long enough, ensuring that the sticky sections behave as expected during scrolling.

Are there any limitations when using sticky sections with the Scroll Sequence widget?

One limitation is that the Start and End range for sticky sections must correspond to the number of images in your scroll sequence. If the range exceeds the available images, the sticky sections may not function as intended. Additionally, ensure that the Scroll Sequence widget is installed and activated as part of The Plus Addons for Elementor to access these features.

What happens if I forget to set the Section ID for my sticky sections?

If you forget to set the Section ID for your sticky sections, they will not be able to link to the corresponding content widget, resulting in the sticky sections not appearing at the correct times during the scroll sequence. Always ensure that the Section ID matches the ID used in the content widget to maintain proper functionality.
