I’m working with react-native-reanimated-carousel in a React Native project, and I want to create a subtle animation when the page first loads. Specifically, I want the carousel to scroll slightly to reveal just a bit of the next item and then smoothly bounce back to the initial position, where only the first item is fully visible.
I’ve tried using the scrollTo method, but I can’t get the animation to look smooth. The current implementation either reveals too much of the next item or the bounce-back is too fast and abrupt or does not happen at all.
const carouselRef = useRef(null);
useEffect(() => {
const timeout = setTimeout(() => {
if (carouselRef.current) {
carouselRef.current.scrollTo({
x: 0.2,
animated: true,
animationDuration: 1200,
easing: Easing.out(Easing.quad),
});
setTimeout(() => {
if (carouselRef.current) {
carouselRef.current.scrollTo({
x: 0,
animated: true,
animationDuration: 1200,
easing: Easing.in(Easing.quad),
});
}
}, 1300);
}
}, 500);
}, []);
return (
<Animated.View style={styles.wrapper}>
<Carousel
ref={carouselRef}
panGestureHandlerProps={{
activeOffsetX: [-10, 10],
}}
pagingEnabled
width={ITEM_WIDTH}
height=HEADER_HEIGHT}
data={data}
scrollAnimationDuration={1000}
onProgressChange={onProgressChange}
renderItem={({ item, index }) => (
<Item
active={index === activeIndex}
item={item}
/>
)}
/>
</Animated.View>
);
How can I achieve the partial right scroll?
