I would like my reveal of text enter from the left on desktop and enter from the right on mobile. Can this be done? I don’t see a dot to override on the direction setting. ![Screenshot 2025-05-31 at 2.48.09 PM](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/6/d/6d593d57999d3ec68df85d93cff1ccc477c9a1f6.png) ---

Thanks @upssjw. I’ll review your file later. ---

I got it working. It’s a bit tricky to figure out what to hide and where to hide it. This should get easier for me once I get further along building my site in [Elements](https://elementsapp.io/). ---

I just created 2 one on top of each other then hid and show them at the different break points for change of direction ---

I too would prefer an override option for different breakpoints. @dan ? ---

The reveal animation settings can’t support different values at the different breakpoints. You’d need to hide and show different components based on the breakpoint (as @upssjw suggests), it’s a bit messy, but it works. When I’m using the reveal component, I try to ensure the same motion works at all breakpoints. ---

You could integrate reveal with the responsive breakpoints using [gsap.matchmedia](https://gsap.com/docs/v3/GSAP/gsap.matchMedia()/) feature the same way when working within breakpoints as other features in the app if desired.
