Turn off Labeled Graphic animation

Hello, J! 

The labeled graphic markers will always animate, even if you add a continue button to the lesson. Thank you for pointing out the confusion in our documentation, and we've updated our article to clarify that!

While there isn't a way to turn off the marker animation, I'll let our team know you need that option.

Appreciate the response @Lea Agato.

A workaround I found for anyone else looking for an answer: If you are exporting the course, in the main.bundle.css file, you can search for and delete the following segment of text:

"

.labeled-graphic-marker__pin:after{animation:markerPulse 2s ease-in-out infinite alternate;border:8px solid hsla(0,0%,100%,.5);border-radius:50%;bottom:-2.4rem;content:"";left:-2.4rem;pointer-events:none;position:absolute;right:-2.4rem;top:-2.4rem}@media(min-width:48em){.labeled-graphic-marker__pin{font-size:1.8rem;height:3rem;line-height:3.2rem;text-align:center;width:3rem}}

"

That will stop the animation. Obviously not the easiest solution to interrupt your export/publish workflow with that, but it can be done if needed.

Adding my voice to the request to have the option to turn off pulsing. How many votes does it take to make such a change?

Please update us when this happens! Thanks, looking forward to it!

I too would love to see this option!

Adding my voice to this request. We had an external Accessibility evaluation done and the pulsing for the labeled graphic markers was indicated as a serious issue. In most cases, there are multiple markers so selecting one marker to stop the animation doesn't stop the rest from pulsating and does not meet WCAG accessibility requirements. 

Please update us when the pulse animation is removed or the option to opt-out is provided. Thanks

Adding my vote for this option as well for all of the stated reasons. 

Joining in to vote for the removal of pulse markers, they often over lap with other elements of your graphic making it messy and it's not accessibility friendly at all! Not in keeping with my organisations branding. Please enable this to be turned off or better yet make it so you have to turn it on. Default for accessibility shouldn't be an automated uncontrolled animated effect.

Being able to disable animation is WCAG requirement for accessibility. Has there been any update to this? Thanks.

Thanks for sharing your insight on this, Adam. We don't have updates on this yet, but we'll be sure to share in this thread if anything changes!
