Is Performance Degraded By Widgets, Fonts, Or Icons When They Aren』t In Use?

Is Performance Degraded By Widgets, Fonts, Or Icons When They Aren』t In Use?

No. Performance is not degraded by widgets that are not in use on a page. 

Elementor does not load widget-specific assets in pages where the widget is not in use, except for a small amount of basic CSS and javascript that should not be fragmented. Likewise, Elementor does not load assets for fonts or icons on pages where they are not in use. Thus, there is no need to disable any native Elementor widgets, fonts or icons as they will only load their assets if they are actually in use on a page. 

Some third-party plugins may allow disabling of their widgets, but that is a different scenario, as they may require actively disabling to prevent them from loading assets even when not in use. Elementor, however, does not have this issue, therefore, no disabling is needed. 

In summary, Elementor eliminates unnecessary asset-loading bloat, allowing your site to load faster, by only loading those assets necessary for the specific page being loaded.

Scrolling Effects – Horizontal Scroll

Scrolling Effects – Horizontal Scroll

The Horizontal Scroll effect moves elements right and left when the visitor scrolls the page up and down accordingly. For example, a section with a heading title that moves to the right when the visitor scrolls down, and back to the left when the visitor scrolls back up. Multiple elements can be moved independently, at different rates of speed.

Motion Effects

Scrolling Effects: Slide to ONHorizontal Scroll: Click pencil edit iconDirection: Choose To Left or To RightSpeed: Set motion speed of horizontal scroll from 0 to 10Viewport: Determine when to begin the movement, based on viewport height (the visible size of the device screen). For example, if the viewport value is set between 50 – 100, the movement starts only after you scroll half the viewport height.Apply Effects On: Select to apply the motion effects on Desktop, Tablet, and/or Mobile devicesEffects Relative To: Choose from Default, Viewport, or Entire Page

Note: The viewport value is calculated according to the height of the viewport (meaning the visible size of the screen), and not to the height of the full page. This is true in all situations, except for elements with a fixed position. See image below:
