"Exploring the Dynamic Duo of AngularJS ngAnimate and animate.css

I've been working on getting my animation to function correctly with AngularJS and animate.css. In order to achieve this, I set up the SASS in the following way:

.slide-animate {
    &.ng-enter, 
    &.ng-leave{
    }

    &.ng-enter {
        -webkit-animation: bounceIn 1s;
           -moz-animation: bounceIn 1s;
             -o-animation: bounceIn 1s;
                animation: bounceIn 1s;

        &.ng-enter-active {
        }
    }

    &.ng-leave {    
        -webkit-animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;
           -moz-animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;
             -o-animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;
                animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;

        &.ng-leave-active {
        }
    }
 }

Upon loading the page, I receive the bounceIn animation. However, when clicking a link, the zoomOutLeft animation is triggered, yet the subsequent view lacks any animation. Interestingly, if I reload that particular view when the browser is refreshed, it does execute the bounceIn animation.

Considering this brief overview, can anyone suggest what might be causing this issue?

The HTML structure is quite simple:

<html>
<head>
    <link href="Content/foundation/normalize.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <link href="Content/foundation/foundation.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <link href="Content/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <link href="Content/animate.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <link href="Content/core.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
<body ng-app="sapphire">
    <section class="slide-animate" ng-view></section>

    <script src="scripts/angular.min.js"></script>
    <script src="scripts/angular-cookies.min.js"></script>
    <script src="scripts/angular-route.min.js"></script>
    <script src="scripts/angular-touch.min.js"></script>
    <script src="Scripts/angular-animate.js"></script>

    <script src="scripts/app/app.js"></script>
    <script src="scripts/app/controllers.js"></script>
    <script src="scripts/app/services.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

Answer №1

After some experimentation, I was able to solve this issue. By applying background colors to .ng-enter and .ng-leave, I noticed that the content for entering was getting covered by the content for leaving. To address this, I made some adjustments and here is what I came up with:

.slide-animate {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;

    &.ng-enter, 
    &.ng-leave{
    }

    &.ng-enter {
        -webkit-animation: fadeIn 2s;
           -moz-animation: fadeIn 2s;
             -o-animation: fadeIn 2s;
                animation: fadeIn 2s;

        &.ng-enter-active {
        }
    }

    &.ng-leave {    
        z-index: -1;
        -webkit-animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;
           -moz-animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;
             -o-animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;
                animation: zoomOutLeft 1s;

        &.ng-leave-active {
        }
    }
 }

By setting the z-index to -1, I positioned it below the enter frame. The main .slide-animate was set to absolute and filled the screen because angular seemed to create a duplicate view when loading new content and only removed the old one once everything was done. Setting the position to absolute allowed the content to overlap properly.
