Delete Fade In/Fade Out animation in the NewsFeed Module

[sdetweil]

@victorjim the animationSpeed setting (default 2.5 seconds) determines how quickly the content changes

see the documentation link in the header

maybe make it 100 milliseconds, or 0, no delay

@sdetweil
Thanks for your reply, but I’ve already given several values ​​to the animationSpeed ​​variable and I haven’t gotten the desired results.
Would it be possible to remove the animation completely?
Thanks

[sdetweil]

@victorjim can you show me the config.js for newsfeed

[victorjim]

@sdetweil Hello
This is my code, I use a single screen to display 4 news.

/* Config Sample

 * You can use environment variables using a `config.js.template` file instead of `config.js`

if (typeof module !== "undefined") { module.exports = config; }

I hope I haven´t written this code wrong.
The reason for putting the 4 modules separately is so that I can control the space between them a bit since, I have no experience with CSS.
Thank you.

@victorjim

    reloadInterval: 60000,
    animationSpeed: 5*1000,

those two properties are for the module, not MagicMirror, so they should be inside the config:{ section, here is the doc for module parameters for MagicMirror,
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/configuration.html#example

	animationSpeed: 5*1000,

means 5 seconds for each news item to appear and disappear. longer animation

you want it to be shorter or not at all

	animationSpeed: 0,

[victorjim]

@sdetweil
I changed the animationSpeed: value to 0, and it still does the Fade In/Fade Out animation.
Nothing has changed. What I would like is to remove the animation and leave the text fixed.
Thanks.

@victorjim said in Delete Fade In/Fade Out animation in the NewsFeed Module:

I changed the animationSpeed: value to 0, and it still does the Fade In/Fade Out animation.

did you MOVE the animationSpeed:0, INSIDE the config:{} section of the module definition??

otherwise the module will not see that setting

[victorjim]

@sdetweil

I don’t understand well, I have changed the variable animationSpeed: 0 in the config.js file inside the /MagicMirror/config/ folder

Like this code:

modules: [
		
		{
			module: "newsfeed",
			position: "top_bar",
			reloadInterval: 60000,
			animationSpeed: 0,  //  In this position
			config: {
				feeds: [
				{
					title: "Portada Periodico de Aragon",
					url: "https://www.elperiodicodearagon.com/rss/section/23500"
				}
				],
				showSourceTitle: true,
				showPublishDate: true,
				showDescription: true,
				broadcastNewsFeeds: true,
				broadcastNewsUpdates: true
			}
		},

@sdetweil said in Delete Fade In/Fade Out animation in the NewsFeed Module:

in a prior post I said

those two properties are for the module, not MagicMirror, so they should be inside the config:{ section, here is the doc for module parameters for MagicMirror,

so

		{
			module: "newsfeed",
			position: "top_bar",
// move These TWO parameters
			reloadInterval: 60000,   
			animationSpeed: 0,
// INSIDE the config:{ section 

			config: {
				feeds: [
				{
					title: "Portada Periodico de Aragon",
					url: "https://www.elperiodicodearagon.com/rss/section/23500"
				}
				],
				showSourceTitle: true,
				showPublishDate: true,
				showDescription: true,
				broadcastNewsFeeds: true,
				broadcastNewsUpdates: true,
// like this 
		        	reloadInterval: 60000,   
			        animationSpeed: 0
			}
		},

module: …to config: { belong to MagicMirror, NOT the module
config: {… } belong to the module

[victorjim]

@sdetweil

Ok
Now I understand.
The 2 variables must be set in the configuration of each news.
Now it is corrected and works.
Thank you very much.
