Also called Spotlight Text Reveal
Moving the pointer across a card uncovers hidden text underneath a mask edge or spotlight.
Add a "Text Reveal Card" effect (also called spotlight text reveal) to [where].
As the pointer moves across the card, a vertical edge should follow it closely and uncover hidden text on one side, smooth and direct with no lag.
On touch devices, where there is no pointer to follow, let a drag or tap reveal the hidden text, and make the hidden text available to screen readers.
Also called Draw In Text, Animated Stroke Text
Letter outlines are drawn as a stroke before the fill appears.
Add a "Stroke Text Draw" effect (also called draw in text or animated stroke text) to [where].
The letter outlines should draw themselves in smoothly, and once the outlines are complete the fill should fade in.
Play it once on load, keep the word accessible as real text, and show the filled text straight away for users who prefer reduced motion.
Also called Water Fill Text
Letters fill with a rising, waving liquid.
Use for
Loaders, playful titles
Add a "Liquid Fill Text" effect (also called water fill text) to [where].
The outlined letters should fill with liquid whose wavy surface rolls sideways while the level slowly rises and falls, in a soft, continuous loop.
Keep the word available as real text for screen readers, and hold the liquid at a still level for users who prefer reduced motion.
