Animation

The overlay has a built-in opening and closing animation, which is disabled until an animation duration is set. The closed properties define the state that the overlay animates from when it opens, and to when it closes. The Aura theme sets these properties for some components. Lumo has its own overlay animations, which these properties don’t affect.

While an animation runs, the component has the opening or closing state attribute, so separate values can be applied to each direction. The backdrop always fades, and only the opacity is animated when the user prefers reduced motion.

CSS Selectors

The following CSS selectors can be used in stylesheets to target the various parts and states of the component. See the Styling documentation for more details on how to style components.

Important
Not for Shadow DOM
These selectors should be used in styles.css or another stylesheet loaded with the @StyleSheet annotation or the @import CSS rule. They do not work in the shadow DOM of Vaadin components, such as in stylesheets in the components sub-folder or loaded with the @CssImport annotation’s themeFor property.
