I am not finding the Animation Icon you mention in your help section when selecting the menu container page element, nor is it accessible through clicking on the hamburger menu icon.

How can I change the animation of the menu container after clicking on the hamburger menu ?

Please see this photo :

Hey @Noam_Konig!

Not sure why I didn’t see this 🤔

Have you got a link to the support article you mention?

Click on the Hamburger Menu icon, open menu and click on the ? question mark.

I did a bit of digging, and it appears the support article linked in the “?” is linked to an Editor X article.

Since you’re using Wix Studio, there are a few differences. It appears on the Menu Container itself, it’s not possible to add an interaction or animation. I’ll be sure to check in with the team about this.

In the meantime, a potential workaround is to make the Menu Container transparent and stretch a normal container to the size of the Menu Container.

This way, you can add an interaction to the Normal container using the interactions tab in Inspector panel on the right (the Lightning icon).

Hope that helps 🙂

This problem still exists. Can’t find the animation of the menu container page. It’s not there in wix studio.

</div>

Why would you not be able to change the animation of the container when an animation is clearly already set somewhere? On the template I’m trying to edit, the menu animates by sliding in from the right, but this function is not set anywhere in Wix Studio. Very frustrating and needs fixed.

Found this thread after experiencing the same issue a year later. Have there been any fixes to this? I’m surprised there isn’t the option to animate/change the pre-set animation of the menu container as it seems like a fairly basic feature.

I’ve also had issues with the close button not working and not being able to change the colour of the icon (despite there being an option to change the icon colour in the editor panel—any changes just don’t apply for some reason)

Three years and this is still a problem.
