Effects / Radar

FreeRadar sonar scanning effect with rings, spokes, and sweep beam.

A headline sits on top of the background
This is where your own content goes. The canvas never blocks clicks, so buttons and links stay usable.
Call to actionUse this look on your site
- Click Copy look above. The settings you see here go to your clipboard.
- In WordPress, open Animation Kit → Background Animation.
- Press Ctrl/⌘+V on that screen — or open the Looks tab and click Paste a copied look. On Animation Kit 0.5.0 and older, click the clipboard icon (Paste look) at the top right of the settings panel instead.
- Click Apply look, then Save changes.
For one section only: select a Group or Cover block, switch on Animated background and paste into Paste a look in its panel. Where a background runs and how its layer stacks are never part of a look, so pasting never re-targets anything.
