Interlace revealPro

The image arrives like a progressive PNG: Adam7 passes, or every 8th, 4th and 2nd line, each pass filling top to bottom.

ProSeven Adam7 passes or every 8th, 4th and 2nd line, each filling top to bottom.

Installation

$ pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add @chatcn-pro/interlace-reveal

Usage

tsx
import { InterlaceReveal } from "@/components/ui/chatcn/pro/interlace-reveal"

<InterlaceReveal src={image.url} alt={image.prompt} pattern="adam7" progress={download.progress} />

Every pixel copies the top left pixel of its block until a finer pass arrives, exactly how a progressive decoder fills the gaps. pixelSize sets how many CSS px one image pixel covers, so the passes stay visible on dense screens.

Examples

States

Waiting for the image, running at 40%, running with no numbers, held by revealed={false}, revealed, a missing file, a timer and right to left.

ProEvery state of the interlace reveal.

Accessibility

  • The effect layer is aria-hidden. The real <img> with your alt is always there, and the frame is aria-busy until the reveal ends.
  • A polite live region says Image ready: <alt> once, when the plain image shows. Progress ticks are never announced.
  • Under forced-colors: active the effect hides and the plain image shows with system colors.
  • A broken file shows what happened and a Reload image button that retries the download.

Motion

  • Each pass fills top to bottom over an equal share of 88% of the run; a short resolve to full resolution closes it.
  • Under reduced motion one still frame holds while the job runs, then the image crossfades in over 200 ms. Nothing moves.
  • The timer only runs on screen in a visible tab; offscreen it waits where it was.
