</div>The problem is when clicking the addInfo tab, you could find a jump in expanding the text_area, namely, the animation is not smooth.
This question is related to
jquery
twitter-bootstrap
twitter-bootstrap-3
For others like me who had a different but similar issue where the animation was not occurring at all:
From what I could find it may be something in my browser setting which preferred less motion for accessibility purposes. I could not find any setting in my browser, but I was able to get the animation working by downloading a local copy of bootstrap and commenting out this section of the CSS file:
@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
.collapsing {
-webkit-transition: none;
transition: none;
}
}
Padding around the collapsing div must be 0
Adding to @CR Rollyson answer,
In case if you have a collapsible div which has a min-height attribute, it will also cause the jerking. Try removing that attribute from directly collapsible div. Use it in the child div of the collapsible div.
<div class="form-group">
<a for="collapseOne" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseOne" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">+ Not Jerky</a>
<div class="collapse" id="collapseOne" style="padding: 0;">
<textarea class="form-control" rows="4" style="padding: 20px;">No padding on animated element. Padding on child.</textarea>
</div>
</div>
Although this has been answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/28375912/5413283, and regarding padding it is not mentioned in the original answer but here https://stackoverflow.com/a/33697157/5413283.
i am just adding here for visual presentation and a cleaner code.
Create a new parent div and add the bootstrap collapse. Remove the classes from the textarea
<div class="collapse" id="collapseOne"> <!-- bootstrap class on parent -->
<textarea class="form-control" rows="4"></textarea>
</div> <!-- // bootstrap class on parent -->
If you want to have spaces around, wrap textarea with padding. Do not add margin, it has the same issue.
<div class="collapse" id="collapseOne"> <!-- bootstrap class on parent -->
<div class="py-4"> <!-- padding for textarea -->
<textarea class="form-control" rows="4"></textarea>
</div> <!-- // padding for textarea -->
</div> <!-- // bootstrap class on parent -->
Same as bootstrap 4. Wrap the textare with collapse class.
<div class="collapse" id="collapseOne"> <!-- bootstrap class on parent -->
<textarea class="form-control" rows="4"></textarea>
</div> <!-- // bootstrap class on parent -->
And for padding Bootstrap 3 does not have p-* classes like Bootstrap 4 . So you need to create your own. Do not use padding it will not work, use margin.
#collapseOne textarea {
margin: 10px 0 10px 0;
}
Mine got smoother not by wrapping each child but wrapping whole markup with a helper div. Like this:
<div class="accordeonBigWrapper">
<div class="panel-group accordion partnersAccordeonWrapper" id="partnersAccordeon" role="tablist" aria-multiselectable="false">
accordeon markup inside...
</div>
</div>
Jerking happens when the parent div ".collapse" has padding.
Padding goes on the child div, not the parent. jQuery is animating the height, not the padding.
Example:
<div class="form-group">
<a for="collapseOne" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseOne" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">+ addInfo</a>
<div class="collapse" id="collapseOne" style="padding: 0;">
<textarea class="form-control" rows="4" style="padding: 20px;"></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<a for="collapseTwo" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseTwo" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseOne">+ subtitle</a>
<input type="text" class="form-control collapse" id="collapseTwo">
</div>
Hope this helps.
Do not set a height on the .collapse tag. It affects the animation, if the height is overridden with css; it will not animate correctly.
I think there can be several situations that cause the jerking. In my example, the issue deals with bottom margin on the non-animated child (even though the animated parent has no margin / padding). When removing the margin, the animation becomes smooth.
<div class="form-group">
<a for="collapseJerky" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseJerky" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseJerky">+ Jerky</a>
<div class="collapse" id="collapseJerky" style="margin:0; padding: 0;">
<textarea class="form-control" rows="4" style="margin-bottom: 20px;">No margin or padding on animated element. Margin on child.</textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<a data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseNotJerky" aria-expanded="true" aria-controls="collapseNotJerky">+ Not Jerky</a>
<div class="collapse" id="collapseNotJerky" style="margin:0 padding: 0;">
<textarea class="form-control" rows="4" style="margin-bottom: 0;">No margin or padding on animated element or on child.</textarea>
</div>
</div>
<p>
Moles and trolls, moles and trolls, work, work, work, work, work. We never see the light of day. This is just content below the "Not Jerky" to show that the animation is smooth.
