I have been working on this new website project. I am using the smart animate feature in several places. Whenever I click to trigger the animation, the screen scrolls up for the amount of time set for the animation. If I set 100ms, then for that time, I am scrolled to the top of the website screen and scrolled back again. I miss my element being animated. The only thing I see is a quick glimpse of the header section of the website. I have tried to restart my Mac, restart Figma, and open my file in the browser version. I even tried to clean up the cache and nothing seems to help. I tried to use “instant” in animate, it is working fine. I have no idea of how to fix this problem.

Here is the file link, only view access. If you need editor access, I will need to generate it from my different account.
Thanks, @Azizbek!

@dvaliao sorry replying back this late, I have been busy with a task. Here is the test file with smart animation.
Figma – 9 Sep 24Animation works fine on a separate frame without any extra elements or frames. As soon as I try to use the feature on a landing page, I get this weird scroll-up-and-down effect during the animation period. Just try the animation in the file.
I am testing my previous projects where I used smart animation. The feature is working as needed in those projects. The problem started 2 months ago, I assume it started after I got the new UI. I even tried to use the smart animation in the old UI, but still no use.
Hey @Azizbek, thanks for following up!
Our team confirmed that this is a bug that they’re investigating. This is not the expected behavior, so we’ve pass your file onto the team to take a closer look. We’ll provide an update once we hear back on their progress.
