I have a menu form. To add and remove items from this menu, I use React Transition Group
ReactJS:
<TransitionGroup>
{
menu.map(meal =>
<CSSTransition
key={meal.id}
timeout={500}
classNames="meMeals"
>
<Meal meal={meal} deleteFromMenu={deleteMealFromMenu}/>
</CSSTransition>
)
}
</TransitionGroup>
CSS:
.meMeals-enter {
opacity: 0;
transform: translateY(-30px);
}
.meMeals-enter-active {
opacity: 1;
transform: translateY(0);
transition: all 500ms ease-in;
}
.meMeals-exit {
opacity: 1;
transform: translateY(0);
}
.meMeals-exit-active {
opacity: 0;
transform: translateY(-30px);
transition: all 500ms ease-in;
}
and I am completely satisfied with the behavior of the menu items. Now I want the background element (grey) as well as the add button to move smoothly as the menu item appears or disappears. How can i do this?
I solved the problem by writing a method that is not directly related to the TransitionGroup, but works in parallel. I also set my window:
transition: 0.5s;
whatever the animation Now I call this method every time the list changes....
function replaceMenuSize(value) {
const menuSize = menuEditorRef.current.getBoundingClientRect().height
if (value > 0) {
menuEditorRef.current.setAttribute("style", "height: " + (menuSize + 41) + "px")
} else {
menuEditorRef.current.setAttribute("style", "height: " + (menuSize - 41) + "px")
}
}
