Version 2.0 has been recently released. It is mostly backwards compatible, if you have any issue first check this link.
If your problem is not solved then go ahead and report the issue.
jQuery.scrollTo's signature is designed to resemble $().animate().
`js`
$(element).scrollTo(target[,duration][,settings]);
This must be a scrollable element, to scroll the whole window use $(window).
This defines the position to where element must be scrolled. The plugin supports all these formats:250
* A number with a fixed position:
* A string with a fixed position with px:
* A string with a percentage (of container's size):
* A string with a relative step:
* An object with and top containining any of the aforementioned: {left:250, top:"50px"}
* The string to scroll to the end.".section:eq(2)"
* A string selector that will be relative to the element to scroll:
* A DOM element, probably a child of the element to scroll:
* A jQuery object with a DOM element:
The duration parameter is a shortcut to the setting with the same name.xy
These are the supported settings:
* __axis__: The axes to animate: (default), x, y, yx
* __interrupt__: If will cancel the animation if the user scrolls. Default is false
* __limit__: If the plugin will not scroll beyond the container's size. Default is true
* __margin__: If , subtracts the margin and border of the target element. Default is false
* __offset__: Added to the final position, can be a number or an object with and top
* __over__: Adds a % of the dimensions: {left:0.5, top:0.5}
* __queue__: If will scroll one axis and then the other. Default is false
* __onAfter(target, settings)__: A callback triggered when the animation ends (jQuery's )
* __onAfterFirst(target, settings)__: A callback triggered after the first axis scrolls when queueing
You can add any setting supported by $().animate() as well:
* __duration__: Duration of the animation, default is 0 which makes it instantaneousswing
* __easing__: Name of an easing equation, you must register the easing function:
* __fail()__: A callback triggered when the animation is stopped (f.e via )
* __step()__: A callback triggered for every animated property on every frame
* __progress()__: A callback triggered on every frame
* And more, check jQuery's documentation
You can use $.scrollTo(...) as a shorthand for $(window).scrollTo(...).
As with most plugins, the default settings are exposed so they can be changed.
`js`
$.extend($.scrollTo.defaults, {
axis: 'y',
duration: 800
});
jQuery.scrollTo ends up creating ordinary animations which can be stopped by calling $().stop() or $().finish() on the same element you called $().scrollTo(), including the window.fail()
Remember you can pass a callback to be called when the animation is stopped.
jQuery.scrollTo has a onAfter callback for work that runs after the animation finishes. It will be called before the scroll event fires. To combat this you can use requestAnimationFrame to do work on the next tick. It is available in many browsers, but you may want to polyfill for the few it does not support.`js``
$.scrollTo(100, {
onAfter: function() {
requestAnimationFrame(function() {
$(".result").addClass("selected");
});
}
});
Check the demo to see every option in action.
There are two plugins, also created by me that depend on jQuery.scrollTo and aim to simplify certain use cases.
This plugin makes it very easy to implement anchor navigation.
If you don't want to include another plugin, you can try using something like this minimalistic gist.
This plugin simplifies the creation of scrolling slideshows.
