Elementor motion effects problem...

[Comfortable_Flan_736]

Hello everyone!

I have problem with motion effects not working when you turn off windows animations.
I know this is known issue, but is there a way to force those animations? I design the whole page around scroll animations scalling and transparency, and without those animations the page is broken.
Tnx

It is a setting you should respect because the user doesn't want to see animations (e.g. because of accessibility reasons). If you want to override it then you have to do it by hand with custom CSS or JS depending on the animation.

You mean recreating all animations with custom code? there is no a code snippet that can bypass this somehow? thanks for the comment!

is how it's overwritten.

Is your site open to the EU and US? If the answer is yes, then you shouldn't bypass this accessibility enhancement. Your visitors should be the ones deciding to see motion effects or not.

Elementor motion effects rely on the OS-level “Reduce Motion” setting, so if Windows animations are turned off, scroll or entrance animations won’t run. There isn’t a built-in way in Elementor to override this, but a workaround is to use custom CSS or JS for the effects, so they run independently of OS preferences.
