A text string will form a wave and then scrolled in defined area.

Displaying area

The wave will be formed and displayed in area X from - X to on the page. Out of this area the text string will be randomly deformed and animated in such way that letters will move towards their positions in the wave. Amplitude will be gradually changed in range Amplitude from - to and calculated amplitude will be added to Y offset position to produce final position of each letter at the page.

Wave settings

Displaying text
