I have a typewriting effect on my webpage but it has a little problem. After the text finished typing the blinking cursor keeps moving to the end of the line. How do I make it stay after the last letter?
It's basic but maybe I need to add something more or modify it?
.typewriter h1{
position: relative;
top: 7em;
width: fit-content;
overflow: hidden;
border-right: .15em solid white;
white-space: nowrap;
margin: 0 auto;
letter-spacing: .15em;
animation: typing 3.5s steps(100, end),
blink-caret .75s step-end infinite;
}
@keyframes typing{
from {width: 0}
to {width: 100%}
}
@keyframes blink-caret{
from, to {border-color: transparent}
50% {border-color: white}
}
<div class="typewriter">
<h1>Welcome to my website</h1>
</div>
It's because the width of your .typewriter h1
is set to 100%.
Use max-width
and set the width
to auto
and display
to inline-block
.
.typewriter h1{
width: auto;
display: inline-block;
overflow: hidden;
border-right: .15em solid white;
white-space: nowrap;
margin: 0 auto;
letter-spacing: .15em;
animation: typing 3.5s steps(100, end),
blink-caret .75s step-end infinite;
}
@keyframes typing{
from {max-width: 0}
to {max-width: 100%}
}
@keyframes blink-caret{
from, to {border-color: transparent}
50% {border-color: black}
}
<div class="typewriter">
<h1>Welcome to my website</h1>
</div>
