# Fill Split (`.sds-btn-fill-split`)

Two half-fills race from opposite edges and seal mid-button with a decaying flare. Buttons animation in SDS Motion Forge v5.0.0. It loops continuously as soon as the class is applied.

- Category: Buttons (https://sds-motion-forge.netlify.app/categories/buttons/)
- Animated properties: filter, transform
- Compositor-only: yes
- Needs child elements: no
- Needs per-character spans: no
- JavaScript: none required

## Use it

```html
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@salkomdesignstudio/sds-motion-forge/dist/categories/buttons.min.css" />

<button class="sds-btn-fill-split">Button</button>
```

## How it works

Plays as soon as the class is applied, looping continuously. It animates filters (blur/brightness) and movement and scale (transform) — compositor-only, so it never causes page reflow. `--sds-duration-slower` controls the speed and `--sds-ease-standard` controls the feel — override either on the element or :root (the sds-fast/sds-slow modifier classes do exactly that).
