Angular 11, :enter and:leave animation 不能与 *ngIf 一起使用

Question

I just started with Angular animations. And wan't to animate a *ngIf with it. Sadly it does't work:(. I don't get an error message. I tried several solutions from here, nothing worked. Also removing one of the animations doesn't change anything or removing one of the *ngIf-blocks entirely doesn't change anything. It just doesn't work, and there is also no error in the terminal or in the devtools visible.

Here the animations definition from the typescript.

animations: [
  trigger('inOutPaneAnimation', [
    state('true', style({ opacity: 1, transform: 'translateX(0)' })),
  state('void', style({ opacity: 0, transform: 'translateX(-100%)' })),
  transition(':enter', [animate('750ms ease-in-out')]),
  transition(':leave', [animate('600ms ease-in-out')]),
]),
trigger('inOutActiveItemAnimation', [
    state('true', style({ opacity: 1, transform: 'translateX(0)' })),
  state('void', style({ opacity: 0, transform: 'translateX(100%)' })),
  transition(':enter', [animate('600ms ease-in-out')]),
  transition(':leave', [animate('750ms ease-in-out')]),
]),

The HTML looks like this:

<div
  *ngIf="activeItem"
  [@inOutActiveItemAnimation]
  class="bt3-locations__active-item"
>
  <app-location-active-item
    [isSingleLocation]="isSingleLocation"
    [location]="activeItem"
    [showRouteLabel]="showRouteLabel"
  ></app-location-active-item>
</div>
<div *ngIf="!activeItem" [@inOutPaneAnimation] #paneContent>
  <div
    *ngTemplateOutlet="
      locations.data.length > 1 ? multipleGroups : group;
      context: { data: getGroups(), group: 0 }
    "
  ></div>
</div>

The BrowserAnimationsModule is imported, into the the parent module.

import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common';
import { CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA, Injector, NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { createCustomElement } from '@angular/elements';
import { LocationItemComponent } from './location-item/location-item.component'; 
import { LocationsComponent } from './locations/locations.component';
import { LocationActiveItemComponent } from './location-active-item/location-active- 
item.component';
import { AccordionModule } from '../accordion/accordion.module';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';

@NgModule({
    declarations: [
      LocationsComponent,
    LocationItemComponent,
    LocationActiveItemComponent,
  ],
  imports: [CommonModule, AccordionModule, BrowserAnimationsModule],
  exports: [],
  providers: [],
  schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
})

This is how you create :enter and :leave animation

trigger("inOutPaneAnimation", [
    transition(":enter", [
        style({ opacity: 0, transform: "translateX(-100%)" }), //apply default styles before animation starts
        animate(
            "750ms ease-in-out",
            style({ opacity: 1, transform: "translateX(0)" })
        )
    ]),
    transition(":leave", [
        style({ opacity: 1, transform: "translateX(0)" }), //apply default styles before animation starts
        animate(
            "600ms ease-in-out",
            style({ opacity: 0, transform: "translateX(-100%)" })
        )
    ])
])

You don't even need property binding [] , this is enough @inOutPaneAnimation

<div *ngIf="!activeItem" @inOutPaneAnimation #paneContent>
...
</div>

Here is a working stackblitz example

Note: Make sure to import BrowserAnimationsModule in main module.

The solution, was fairly simple.

Make sure the ViewEncapsulation of your component is not set to ShadowDom. Then it is not working.

And also make sure to check @Sameer's answer. It is the right way to implement it.
