Question

How to make a Video or Lottie to stop when on Hover state and continue when on Default?

Hello everyone!

 

First of all, I want to say I LOVE the Adobe XD tool, it's amazing all the capabilities and possibilities you get with this tool. Thank you for building it!

 

Now with that out of the way. Just like the title explaines, I want to know if it is possible to make a Video or Lottie animation to stop when is on Hover state and to continue when it changes to Default state? it keeps its consistency and doesn't seems like a clumsy jump. I want the video / lottie to continue straight from the same frame where it stopped when the user hovered it so that it maintains its consistency and doesn't look like a clumsy jump back.

 

So far, i think this capability is not possible with AdobeXD (I can imagine some easy ways this could be achieved with code but not with adobexd). If it is not yet something we can do, I will like to suggest this feature as an improvement for future upgrades. Thank you 🙂

Hi @HARSHIKA_VERMA 

 

I checked the source you referenced in your answer, and although the proposed solution seems to be geared towards what I want to achieve, it is still not effective for what I want to do. The proposed method makes the video / lottie play when scrolling, but the motion interruption in the video or animation is too drastic when the user moves the mouse pointer out, jumping back to the first frame.

 

I want the video / lottie to continue straight from the same frame where it stopped when the user hovered it so that it maintains its consistency (just as is shown in my attached example in the discussion) and doesn't look like a clumsy jump back. So, I should say no, that is not the same thing I am looking for 😕😕

 

Thank you for your help!
