Pixel trail hover effect for WooCommerce products

A trail of little square lenses opens behind the moving pointer. Move quickly and it reaches far. Stop and it closes.

Pointer

These are the block's own settings, on this page working live. All Pro.

This one is for delight rather than inspection, and it works on a card or a hero. It only happens in motion, so a shopper who stops to read the price sees a clean picture again.

What the sliders do

Size
The size of a square. Small squares look like glitter, and big ones like a contact sheet.
Strength
How much closer each square shows its part. High values make the trail look less like the photo and more like a pattern.

Where we started

The values we started this page on: Size 50, Strength 65.

Questions

Why does it disappear when I stop?

Its reach follows the pointer's speed. With no speed there is no trail, so the product is visible whenever someone stops to look at it.

Which products suit it?

Anything with lots of fine detail, like sequins, stones and mosaics. It is less suitable for faces.
