Hi to the In5 team,

I am looking for a way to integrate a lot of projects in a continuous scroll page, in a way that they can unfold to display more information when the viewer is interested in knowing more.

I found this seemingly simple and elegant example (here):

Is there a way to replicate this effect where content unfolds by "pushing down" whatever sits afterwards?

Thank you!

You can create an accordion menu with InDesign and in5 using buttons and multi-state objects (MSOs). Here's a video where I show how to set it up:

However, this type of accordion menu won't dynamically adjust to the expanded content. To get that functionality, you would need to add custom code.

Here's a tutorial for building a dynamic accordion using JavaScript:
