Animated SVGs in Notion - Mind-blowing discovery!
Hey folks! I stumbled upon something awesome in Notion today. Did you know we can use animated SVGs? It’s like bringing our pages to life!
I was playing around with some design elements and BAM! Animated SVGs work perfectly. It’s so cool to see little animations popping up in my notes and project plans.
Has anyone else tried this out? What kind of animated SVGs are you using? I’d love to hear about your experiences and maybe swap some ideas.
This feature is seriously upping my Notion game. Can’t wait to see what else we can do with it!
Absolutely, I’ve been experimenting with animated SVGs in Notion for a while now, and it’s been a game-changer for my workspace aesthetics. I found that they’re particularly effective for creating visual cues in project timelines and process diagrams. One trick I discovered is using animated loading icons for sections that are works in progress - it adds a nice dynamic touch.
As for sourcing them, I usually create custom ones tailored to my needs using Adobe After Effects and exporting as SVG. It takes some practice, but the results are worth it. For those not into creating their own, sites like LottieFiles have a decent selection of pre-made animated SVGs that work well in Notion.
Just be mindful of file sizes to keep your pages loading quickly. And remember, while they look great, it’s important not to overdo it - strategic placement is key for maintaining a professional look.
woah dude, i had no idea! thats so sick. i’ve been usin static svgs but animated ones sound way cooler. gonna have to try that out asap. any tips on where to find good animated svgs? or do u make ur own?
I’ve been incorporating animated SVGs into my Notion workspace for a few months now, and it’s truly enhanced my productivity. They’re particularly useful for creating visual cues in task lists and project overviews. I’ve found that simple, subtle animations work best - they add a touch of dynamism without being distracting.
For those interested, there are numerous online tools that allow you to create basic animated SVGs without extensive design knowledge. However, it’s crucial to optimize these files for web use to prevent slow loading times. Also, consider accessibility - some users might find excessive animation disorienting, so use them judiciously.
Overall, animated SVGs are a powerful tool when used strategically in Notion. They can significantly improve information hierarchy and user engagement in your workspace.
