## Description
Shift8 ScrollShot turns a tall image into a scrolling screenshot preview. Add the
wrapper and image classes, then adjust the behavior with data attributes. It works
in regular templates, block markup, and most page builders.
**Features:**
* Automatic loop or scroll-linked movement
* Configurable pause timing
* Optional browser-style frame with traffic-light dots
* Per-instance configuration via data attributes
* Multiple independent instances on one page
* Respects `prefers-reduced-motion`
* No jQuery dependency
### Usage
1. Add a container element and give it the CSS class `s8-scrollshot`.
2. Add an image inside that container and give the image the CSS class `s8-scrollshot__image`.
3. (Optional) Add data attributes to the container or image to configure the behavior.
Data attributes can be placed on either the wrapper or the image. If the same attribute
appears on both, the wrapper value takes priority.
#### Page Builder Setup
In visual builders such as Bricks or Elementor:
1. Add a container or section element and apply the CSS class `s8-scrollshot`.
2. Add an image element inside it and apply the CSS class `s8-scrollshot__image`.
3. Use the builder’s custom attributes panel to add any `data-*` attributes.
#### Plain HTML Example
```
Data Attributes
```
All configuration is done through HTML data attributes on the `.s8-scrollshot` container
or the `.s8-scrollshot__image` element. Wrapper values take priority over image
values.
* `data-mode` – `auto` or `scroll` (default: `auto`)
* `data-duration` – Total cycle time in milliseconds (default: `12000`)
* `data-end-pause` – Hold time at top and bottom in milliseconds (default: `1500`)
* `data-pause-on-hover` – `true` or `false` (default: `true`)
* `data-reverse` – `true` or `false`, controls bounce direction (default: `true`)
* `data-frame` – `none` or `browser` (default: `none`)
* `data-viewport-height` – Visible area height in pixels (default: `700`)
* `data-viewport-width` – Viewport width in pixels, `0` for auto (default: `0`)
* `data-easing` – Any CSS easing string (default: `ease-in-out`)

## FAQ
### Does it require a specific page builder?
No. The plugin scans the DOM for `.s8-scrollshot` and `.s8-scrollshot__image` classes
regardless of which theme or page builder rendered them. It works with Bricks, Elementor,
Gutenberg blocks, hand-coded HTML, or any other setup.
### Can I have multiple instances on one page?
Yes. Each `.s8-scrollshot` instance is independent.
### What happens if my image is shorter than the viewport?
The image stays static.
### How do I control the width?
Set a width on the container element, or use the `data-viewport-width` attribute
with a pixel value. The image fills the viewport width by default.
### How do I make the scroll slower?
Increase `data-duration`. For a slow scroll, try `15000` or `20000` (15-20 seconds
per cycle). Also increase `data-end-pause` for longer holds at each end.
