Fixes #1316

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Prevented top and bottom fades from appearing on scrolling elements in browsers that don’t support scroll-driven animations. In those browsers, scrolling elements now display without the fade effect at either edge. This fallback keeps the visible presentation consistent with the browser’s animation support and avoids showing fades where scroll-driven animation timelines are unavailable.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Zero the horizontal fade variables for .fade-y.

When animation-timeline: scroll() is unsupported, tw-fade sets all four directional variables to 1. The added rule resets only the vertical variables, so .fade-y can retain its horizontal fade values and render a horizontal fade.

Suggested fix
   .fade-y {
     --tw-fade-t: 0 !important;
     --tw-fade-b: 0 !important;
+    --tw-fade-l: 0 !important;
+    --tw-fade-r: 0 !important;
   }

Thanks for this. The vertical reset does handle the sidebar fade. The horizontal-fade warning does not appear to apply to the version of tw-fade currently on main.

AI review notes:
Tested the installed tw-fade 0.8.0 CSS in an isolated Chromium page, forcing its unsupported-timeline branch by substituting the feature query. The baseline showed the persistent vertical fades. With this PR’s two-variable reset, both disappeared; the computed mask matched a four-variable reset exactly.
Although the fallback sets all four variables to 1, .fade-y uses solid identity masks for its horizontal edges. The unused left/right values do not create a horizontal fade in this version. This corrects the earlier source-only assessment.
This was a simulated unsupported branch, not Firefox or a full application build. The exact PR head is still 16a0392; only the two Socket checks are currently reported, so application CI and native-browser verification remain outstanding.

The native Firefox check agrees with the earlier isolated test, the two-variable reset removes the persistent vertical fades.

AI review notes:
Ran the unmodified installed tw-fade 0.8.0 stylesheet in headless Firefox with the PR's feature-gated top/bottom override. Firefox reported animation-timeline: scroll() unsupported without changing its feature query. The baseline visibly faded both edges; the candidate removed both, and its computed mask matched the four-variable control. The screenshot was inspected. This is an isolated CSS fixture, not the full application.

Head 16a0392 is unchanged. Only Socket and CodeRabbit checks are currently reported; application CI is still missing, so this is not ready to merge yet.
