I am trying to make something similar to this INDEX menu animation on [this](https://newopen.design/philipperahm/) beautiful site which was made on readymag. What I like is that the animation has a trigger to come into the window, but it has another trigger (the X) to leave. Maybe it’s custom, but if it’s possible to make something like it within ready mag, I would love to find out. Seems like ready mag animations are like light switches, functionally working on and off, but this one is closer to a three-way switch. Any thoughts on how to do this? ---

well, you can assign more then one trigger to a animation. menu opens on click on index and closes on click on index or on the X. As the X isn´t visible if the menu is closed this works well. here the menu also closes on click on any menuitem, which is done with custom code. ps: I built the website. ---

That’s a gorgeous site. Did you use a template to make it? ---

Hey, thanks. I started with a template, I think it was A-Bureau–but I altered it a ton. ---

Hiya, I am trying to do this by using click animation opacity from 0-100 with a tile as a trigger but then I want to use an X button as a trigger to make the video disappear (opacity from 100-0) but can’t seem to have two different opacity animations on the same step. Is there another way to do this? many thanks 🙂 ---

but you can have several elemnts as triggers. so first trigger is the “open video”: videoelement gets shown & cross appears. The cross is a second trigger
