Fade the edges of a Ticker in Framer
Learn how to fade the edges of a Ticker in Framer. In this quick tip, you will build a ticker that fades out into the edges. You will configure the relevant effect, trigger, and transition, then preview the interaction across breakpoints.
Lesson details
Place the Ticker inside a Frame that clips overflow, then add gradient masks or overlay Frames at the left and right edges. Match the gradient color to the page background so items appear to fade as they enter and leave the visible area.
Keep the fade wide enough to soften the edge without hiding too much content. Preview the loop at different speeds and widths, and make sure interactive Ticker items remain readable and clickable.
Preview the effect as part of the full page sequence. Timing that feels right in isolation can become slow or noisy when several sections animate during the same scroll.

Adjust the layout or effect when the animation obscures content or moves an interactive element away from its expected position.
