Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change the transition property of the menu?

Yes, but it's not recommended for animations other than Slide due to how other page elements are designed to move with the transition.

You can access it through the bmMenuWrap key of the styles prop:

var styles = {
  bmMenuWrap: {
    transition: ''
  }
}

<Menu styles={ styles } />

I have a fixed header, but it's scrolling with the rest of the page when I open the menu.

Unlike the rest of your content, fixed elements need to be placed outside your page-wrap element, so your layout structure will look something like this:

<div id="outer-container">
  <header>I am a fixed header!</header>
  <Menu pageWrapId={ "page-wrap" } outerContainerId={ "outer-container" } />
  <main id="page-wrap">
    .
    .
    .
  </main>
</div>

A common use for this is a fixed header, but the same applies to any elements you want to remain fixed and positioned relative to the viewport.

This package is making my Webpack bundle huge due to snapsvg-cjs.

If you're not using one of the animations that needs Snap.svg (Elastic or Bubble), then you can import the menu like this:

import Menu from 'react-burger-menu/lib/menus/slide'

This will keep Snap.svg out of your bundle.
