Bricks Version: 1.2.2(missing since 1.2) Browser: Chrome 90 OS: macOS / Windows / Linux / etc. URL: https://local.jtdkitchen.com (no Parallax Effect or Fixed Background in use here)
Hi Bricks Team,
I don’t think it is a feature request, so I report it as a bug because this option was available and worked fine before Bricks 1.2.
Since Bricks 1.2, I noticed that the Parallax Effect for the background image is no longer available. But, I saw a small note that says choosing “fixed” for Parallax Effect. So, I chose “Fixed”. But, I don’t see my background image is scrolling with the Parallax Effect(it’s just fixed position). Then I check in the setting, and I can’t find the field that allows me to choose this option. Is this option missing accidentally, or I missed any step for the Parallax Effect?
To view the Parallax Effect → https://kitchencabinet.my/ (it’s currently with Bricks 1.1.3)
*The Parallax Effect is in use for the first section.
*I will only update it to the latest when this Parallax Effect is back.
[Please describe in as much detail as possible how we can replicate this bug]
We decided to remove the parallax feature that was present in Bricks1.1.3 as there were a few issues with it and also lacking support for mobile devices.
We are currently looking for a more suitable alternative that will address the issues we were present with the previous parallax library.
Thank you for your continued patience while we address this.
@Zansus Okay!
I look forward to seeing the coming Parallax Effect. I don’t mind this does not work with the mobile view(I don’t like too). It’s good for some elements in desktop view as it makes the entire website a different taste.
I don’t see any possibilities for this to be added back to the builder anytime soon. If you need it urgently, you can consider BricksExtras(if you don’t have it).
Is it a joke from Bricks that they are not able to create a Parallax on the background-attachment?
How other third party developers can do it but you can’t?
It is a thing that is simply must have.
Idea board? I’m new to Bricks as of two days ago, but have been creating parallax elements in web design for over 10 years, always including mobile. Am I to understand that Bricks has no feature to create parallax elements of 3-9 layers of images and text?
Hi Derek, welcome to the forum! Correct, there is currently no parallax feature - but as I said, there is already a request on the idea board, where any user can submit new feature requests, which may then make it onto the roadmap. Here you’ll find more information on our user-driven development process.
Nevertheless, you can of course already integrate and use any parallax library via custom code. Just because feature x or y does not yet exist does not mean that it is not possible
I was just looking for a way to create a parallax effect as well when I found this thread. Imo this is rlly a MUST in a pagebuilder. And what I don´t understand is:
If it was there before in an earlier version of Bricks (which seems to be the case) then this shouldn´t be put on the idea board again cause people expected to have it already in Bricks. This is not a new feature that now has to be upvoted and MAYBE find its way in the builder but an old feature which was removed and never came back.
And ye, I agree that this can be done with custom code but it´s still a bummer that a pretty basic feature like this isn´t available in Bricks anymore even though it was already there.
(Sorry if this sounded a bit harsh. I´m a huge fan of Bricks! )
