Take your designs to another level by applying scroll effects to your module.

In this post, we will show you how to enlarge your map module on scroll with Divi’s scroll effects.

Let’s get started!

Layout 1

Create a New Page with a Premade Layout

Let’s start by using a premade layout from the Divi library. For this design, we will use the Acai Bowl Landing Page from the Acai Bowl Layout Pack.

Add a new page to your website and give it a title, then select the option to Use Divi Builder.

Enable Scaling Up and Down. This will allow our map module to increase in size as you scroll down the page.

Let’s fine-tune the scaling settings. Adjust the starting, mid, and ending scale. You can achieve a more subtle scale effect by keeping the numbers relatively close together. If there is a big difference between the numbers, you will achieve a more drastic scale effect.

  • Starting Scale: 80%
  • Mid Scale: 90%
  • Ending Scale: 100%
