Trigger events and animations while scrolling your page.

Usage

The scrollspy component listens to page scrolling and triggers events based on the scroll position. For example, if you scroll down a page and an element appears the first time in the viewport you can trigger a smooth animation to fade in the element.

Data attribute Description
data-uk-scrollspy="{cls:'MY-CLASS'}" Applies the class only the first time the element appears in the viewport.
data-uk-scrollspy="{cls:'MY-CLASS', repeat: true}" Applies the class everytime the element appears in the viewport.
data-uk-scrollspy="{cls:'MY-CLASS', delay:600}" Adds a delay in milliseconds to the animation.

Typically, classes from the Animation component are used together with the scrollspy.

Examples

This example uses the repeat: true option. Scroll up and down to see the triggered animations.

Scrollspy Nav

To automatically update the active menu item in a menu depending on the scroll position of your site, just add the data attribute data-uk-scrollspy-nav to any navigation. Each menu item must link to the ID of its corresponding part of the site.

Data attribute Description
data-uk-scrollspy-nav Triggers the JavaScript necessary for the functionality of the scrollspy nav.
data-uk-scrollspy-nav="{closest:'MY-SELECTOR'}" Looks for the closest element that matches the selector by testing the element itself and traversing up through its ancestors in the DOM tree.
data-uk-scrollspy-nav="{smoothscroll:true}" Applies the Smooth scroll component when skipping between different sections of the site.
data-uk-scrollspy-nav="{cls:'MY-CLASS'}" By default ScrollspyNav toggles the uk-active class. Use the cls option to use your own class name.

Markup

<ul class="uk-nav uk-nav-side" data-uk-scrollspy-nav="{closest:'li', smoothscroll:true}">
    <li><a href="#MY-ID">...</a></li>
    <li><a href="#MY-ID2">...</a></li>
</ul>

<div id="MY-ID">...</div>
<div id="MY-ID2">...</div>

JavaScript options
