Variables
Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you want to change on the element:| Variable | Default | Accepts | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
result | A7K | string | Characters the reels land on, one reel column per character. Whitespace is stripped and every reel starts on a zero. |
direction | up | up, down | Which way the reels roll: up lifts the zero out through the top, down drops it out through the bottom. |
size | standard | small, standard, large | Reel height and type size. The roll distance scales with it so the reel always lands exactly one row on. |
tone | ink | ink, paper, accent | Character colour: ink for light frames, paper for dark ones, accent rides —brand. |
data-variable-values on the element that mounts it. These are the
defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:
<div
data-composition-id="slot-machine-roll"
data-composition-src="compositions/components/slot-machine-roll.html"
data-variable-values='{"result":"A7K","direction":"up","size":"standard","tone":"ink"}'

Slot Machine Roll - remocn typography primitive for HyperFrames.
Paste the markup, CSS and script into a composition. Drive the timeline
integration from a paused GSAP timeline so renders remain deterministic.
Variables. The script reads each one, falls back to the declared default on
anything missing or unrecognised, and writes the result as a custom property
the CSS below consumes. The timeline recipe stays untouched by them: it keeps
driving one vertical offset of exactly one row, and these decide how tall that
row is, which way it travels and what it lands on.
- result (text, default "A7K"): the characters the reels land on, one reel
column per character. Whitespace is stripped, and blank or non-text input
falls back to the default three. Every reel starts on a zero.
- direction (up | down, default up): which way the reels roll. up lifts the
zero out through the top, down drops it out through the bottom.
- size (small | standard | large, default standard): reel height and type
size, 48px, 74px or 104px. The roll distance is scaled by the same factor,
so whatever the size the reel still lands exactly one row on.
- tone (ink | paper | accent, default ink): character colour. ink is
near-black for light frames, paper near-white for dark ones, accent rides
--brand.
On every default the result is identical to the original: three 74px reels in
near-black rolling 0 up to A, 7 and K.
