Let’s select Section/Row here.

From the **Flip Divider** toggle, you can flip the shape divider.

4. After that set an appropriate height for the shape divider from the **Shape Height** section.

5. Then from the **Wave Loop** section, you can add multiple animated wave shapes. By default, you’ll find two items here, open one item.

From the **Shape Color Type** section, you can add a solid or gradient color to the shape.

Then from the **Height** section, you can set the wave animation height. The higher the height the lower will be the animation wave height.

> *Note: This height will correspond to the height set in the Shape Height section.*

In the **Bones** section, you can set the number of wave curves in the animation.

Then from the **Amplitude** section, you can set wave movement. The higher the number the higher will be the wave movement.

You can control the animation speed from the **Speed** section. The higher the number the slower the animation will be.

Following this process, you can edit the other item. By setting different values and color for the wave you can create interesting wave animation.

You can click on the **+ Add Item** button to add more waves.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: What if the animated shape divider doesn't display correctly?**
A: If the animated shape divider isn't showing as expected, ensure that the Advanced Separators widget from The Plus Addons for Elementor is installed and activated. This widget is essential for adding animated section dividers. Also, check your settings for the Divider Position and Shape Height, as incorrect values can affect visibility.

**Q: Can I use the animated shape divider to enhance a specific section of my page?**
A: Yes, the animated shape divider is great for breaking up sections of your page, adding dynamism and movement. Using the Advanced Separators widget from The Plus Addons for Elementor, you can select the Section/Row option to add a horizontal divider or the Column option for a vertical divider, tailoring the effect to your design needs.

**Q: What settings work best for creating a smooth wave animation?**
A: For a smooth wave animation, adjust the Amplitude and Speed settings in the Advanced Separators widget. A higher Amplitude increases wave movement, while a higher Speed value slows down the animation. This balance is crucial for achieving a visually appealing effect without overwhelming users.

**Q: Are there any limitations when using the animated shape divider?**
A: One limitation to note is that the Advanced Separators widget can only be used with Elementor. It does not work with other page builders like Gutenberg, Beaver Builder, or Divi. Ensure you are using Elementor to take full advantage of this feature.

**Q: How can I customize the colors of my animated shape divider?**
A: You can customize the colors of your animated shape divider by selecting the Shape Color Type in the Advanced Separators widget. You have the option to choose either a solid or gradient color. This flexibility allows you to match the divider to your site's overall color scheme, enhancing visual cohesion.

**Q: What happens if I set the wave height too high?**
A: Setting the wave animation height too high can lead to an exaggerated effect that may not look good on your page. It's important to balance the height with the Shape Height you've set. A good practice is to keep the wave height proportional to ensure a smooth and visually appealing animation.
