Letters Settling

About this component

Letters Settling

A short word whose letters begin scattered and slightly turned, then drift home on a soft spring one after another, like type settling onto a page.

Usage

The import and the props worth knowing about, in one place.

import { Text14 } from "@/components/beste/component/text14";

<Text14 as="h1" text="settle" className="font-serif text-9xl" />

<Text14
  text="Altair"
  spread={1.4}        // how far the letters start from home, in em
  stagger={0.08}
  trigger="mount"
/>

Playground

Turn the props on the right; the snippet under them is what you would write to get what you see.

Usage
import { Text14 } from "@/components/beste/component/text14";

<Text14
  text="settle"
  as="h2"
  className="px-6 font-serif text-5xl font-normal leading-none tracking-[-0.03em] text-foreground md:text-6xl"
/>

Props

Read from the component's own type, so this cannot drift from what it accepts.

Notheard.

Strike and Replace

A sentence that corrects itself: a line is drawn through the old word from left to right, and the better word settles in beside it out of a soft blur.

Breathe

Photo Fill

Large serif letters filled with a photograph that drifts slowly inside them as the page scrolls, the picture showing through the type.

Letter Cascade

Short text whose characters arrive one by one out of a light blur, for eyebrows, labels and single words. The element keeps the whole string as its accessible name.

Slow Wave

A word whose letters rise and fall on one slow, continuous swell, each a beat behind the last, like a line of type resting on water. Stays still when reduced motion is preferred.

Slow,onpurpose.

Ink Drying

Words that begin as soft, spread blots of ink, wide-set and out of focus, and dry into crisp, tightly set type one after another.

Roomtobreathe.

Turning Word

A sentence whose one word takes turns: each candidate blurs up into place as the last blurs out, on a timer that stops when reduced motion is preferred.
