Scroll animations are a great way to add some extra flair to your web designs. In this article, we’ll show you how to create scroll animations in Figma.

First, let’s take a look at how to create a basic scroll animation. In Figma, go to the “Frames” panel and click on the “+” icon.

This will create a new frame. Name this frame “Animation 1”.

Next, go to the “Layers” panel and click on the “+” icon. This will create a new layer. Name this layer “Text 1”.

Click on the “Text 1” layer and add some text. We’re going to animate this text so it looks like it’s scrolling up from the bottom of the screen.

To do this, select the “Text 1” layer and go to the “Animations” panel. Click on the “+” icon and select “Scroll Up”.

Now, play the animation by clicking on the “Play” button in the “Animations” panel. You should see your text scroll up!

You can also add multiple scroll animations to the same frame. To do this, create another frame and name it “Animation 2”.

Then, create another layer and name it “Text 2”. Add some text to this layer and animate it using the “Scroll Up” animation.

Now, when you play both animations at the same time, you should see both pieces of text scrolling up!

You can also change the speed of your scroll animations. To do this, select the animation in the “Animations” panel and click on the “Speed” drop-down menu.

You can choose from a variety of speeds, from slow to fast. Experiment with different speeds to find one that looks best for your design.

You can also add a delay to your scroll animation. To do this, select the animation in the “Animations” panel and click on the “Delay” drop-down menu.

This will add a delay before your animation starts playing. You can use this to create a more dramatic effect or to make sure your text doesn’t start scrolling until after other elements have finished animating.

Finally, you can loop your scroll animation so it plays over and over again. To do this, select the animation in the “Animations” panel and click on the “Loop” toggle. This will make your animation loop indefinitely until you stop it manually.

That’s all there is to know about creating scroll animations in Figma! With these tips, you should be able to add some extra flair to your web designs.
