Replace [where] with the part of your page and paste the prompt into your AI agent. Each prompt includes the name of the motion, so next time you can simply ask for it by name.
Add a "Text 3D Flip" hover effect (also called 3D flip text reveal) to [where].
When the pointer is over the text, each letter should roll over on its horizontal axis in 3D to show a new letter on its other side, one after another in a quick, smooth sweep, and roll back when the pointer leaves.
Keep the text box the same size during the flip, and show the same effect on keyboard focus.

Also calledText Flipping Board, Flip Board, Vestaboard display
Characters flip like an airport departure board until they land on the target letter.
Use for
Status boards, retro displays
Add a "Split-Flap Text" effect (also called a text flipping board or flip board) to [where].
Each character tile should flip quickly through the alphabet until it lands on its target letter, with the tiles settling one after another from left to right.
Run it once each time the text appears or changes, announce only the final text to screen readers, and show the final text without flipping for users who prefer reduced motion.
Also calledRotating Words, Flip Words, Container Text Flip, Layout Text Flip, Rotating Text Wheel
One word in a sentence is swapped for the next word in a list with a slide, flip or fade.
Use for
Hero taglines
Add a "Word Rotate" effect (also called rotating words or flip words) to [where].
One word in the line should slide up and out while the next word from a list slides in from below, pausing on each word before the next change.
Keep the rest of the line from jumping when the words have different widths, don't make screen readers announce every change, and stop rotating for users who prefer reduced motion.
The element rotates in 3D around its horizontal or vertical axis from edge-on to facing the viewer.
Use for
Card and tile reveals
Add a "Flip In" entrance animation (also called flip in X or flip in Y) to [where].
The element should start edge-on and rotate around its horizontal axis to face the viewer, swinging slightly past and back before it settles: quick, with a small wobble.
Give it perspective so the rotation reads as depth, and show it facing forward without motion when the user prefers reduced motion (prefers-reduced-motion).
Also calledFlip card, Card flip 3D, 3D flip on hover
A card rotates 180 degrees around an axis to reveal its back face.
Use for
Team cards, flash cards, pricing details
Add a "Card Flip" effect (also called a flip card or card flip 3D) to [where].
When the pointer is over the card, it should turn over around its vertical axis in perspective to show its back face, and turn back when the pointer leaves: smooth and steady.
Hide each face's back side so the two never show through each other, and make the flip work on keyboard focus and with a tap on touch devices.
Text warps and ripples organically, driven by scrolling or pointer movement.
Use for
Experimental portfolios
Add a "Text Distortion" effect (also called organic text distortion) to [where].
A row of text should flow sideways endlessly and warp and ripple organically as it moves, as if seen through moving water, with the flow driven by the user's scrolling.
Keep the distortion light enough that the text stays legible, keep it smooth on slower devices, and turn it off for users who prefer reduced motion.
Words fade in sequentially on page load, often with a blur clearing, as if being generated.
Use for
AI-style intro copy
Add a "Text Generate" effect to [where].
The words should fade in one after another while a soft blur clears from each, as if the text is being generated: steady and calm.
Play it once on load, let screen readers read the full text right away, and show it without motion for users who prefer reduced motion.
Also calledHighlight Marker, Marker Underline, Hero Highlight
A marker-style colour band draws across a phrase to emphasise it.
Use for
Emphasising key phrases
Add a "Text Highlighter" effect (also called highlight marker or marker underline) to [where].
A marker-style color band should sweep smoothly behind the key phrase from left to right, like someone highlighting it with a pen.
Play it once when the phrase scrolls into view, keep the text readable on top of the band, and let the band follow the phrase correctly when it wraps onto two lines.
