How Does It Work?

Step 1. Create a design and duplicate the artboard.

Select the artboard and press Command + D.

Step 2. On the duplicated artboard, resize the Machu Picchu image to fit the entire artboard.

Important: Layers must keep the same names in both artboards in order to auto- animate correctly.

Resize Machu Picchu image

Step 3. Move elements to their end position

Move the text box to the lower-left corner
Slide down the Social symbol and Slider Ovals. (Make sure they do not slide outside the artboard).
Slide Facts (hidden) in from the right

Move elements to their end position

Step 4. Modify the elements’ properties

Change the white Rectangle opacity to 0%
Change the text color to white
Change the Social symbol and Slider Ovals opacity to 0%
Change Facts group opacity to 100%

Anima will calculate the position, color, and opacity changes and generate a fluid transition between the two artboards.

Step 5. Link Artboards

Select the Read More button in the original artboard, then go to Anima Plugin>Prototype> Flow> Links and point the purple arrow towards destination artboard and click it.
