Marquee space between elements is not working and marquee dissapears in safari browser 13.1.3

Dear Lay-Team,

your Work is so great and i love all the features you offer! Thanks a lot!

I have a Problem with a marquee text element. When I use Safari, the space between the text-elements is too narrow and the elements overlap. This is only in the first 10 seconds, then everything is displayed normally. Then after a while the marquee dissapears or is flickering and dissapears afterward …
On Firefox everything works fine.
I removed all Plugins and CSS but the problem still exists …

It would be great if you could have a look.

thanks!!

mmh for me it works on safari!
which safari version are u using?

mh i think there might be problems with it flickering because its on top of a carousel and its also using a y coffset

maybe try this css:

.lay-marquee{
transform: translate3d(0,0,0);
}

@arminunruh thank you for your reply.
The Problem appears on Safari Version 13.1.3 (15609.4.1) on Mac OSX Catalina 10.15.7.

I tried the code, but the flickering still exists. It starts after a while.

Right now I did the latest update of Lay Theme and a new issue came on top. The z-index (or something similar) of the carousel changed. It overlays the navigation and so on …
I tried to change the z-index of the carousel but it was not working?

thank you for your help!

I can confirm there is a flicker issue on Safari, as well as on Chrome, so it's not browser specific.

The marquee works fine for about 40 seconds, then starts flickering. I have Unicode characters in the marquee Text elements, removed them to see if that was the problem, but apparently not.

My marquee is on the top border as a 1rst section and the page then has a 2nd section with Text bloc which acts as a collapse button for the 3rd section, and the 4rth section is a project index.

There also seemed to be a bug with top and bottom outlines of the marquee. Even when set to same values (i.e. 1px each), the bottom one seemed a lot thicker.

Hope you can figure it out, I would love visitors to stay more than 40 seconds on my website 😅

@arminunruh Hi Armin, thank you for your replay. Does it mean I should wait with the update, or should I update?
I am not shure, if I understood it right?

Best

I took an image instead of text now and it works. This fixed it for me until there will be a better solution.

[arminunruh]
