Timeline

.repeat()

.repeat( value:Number ) : *

Gets or sets the number of times that the timeline should repeat after its first iteration.

Parameters

value: Number

(default = 0) — Omitting the parameter returns the current value (getter), whereas defining the parameter sets the value (setter) and returns the instance itself for easier chaining.

Returns : *

Omitting the parameter returns the current value (getter), whereas defining the parameter sets the value (setter) and returns the instance itself for easier chaining.

Details

Gets or sets the number of times that the timeline should repeat after its first iteration.

For example, if repeat is 1, the timeline will play a total of twice (the initial play plus 1 repeat). To repeat indefinitely, use -1. repeat should always be an integer.

To cause the repeats to alternate between forward and backward, set yoyo to true. To add a time gap between repeats, use repeatDelay. You can set the initial repeat value via the vars parameter, like:

  1. var tl = gsap.timeline({repeat: 2});

This method serves as both a getter and setter. Omitting the parameter returns the current value (getter), whereas defining the parameter sets the value (setter) and returns the instance itself for easier chaining, like myTimeline.repeat(2).yoyo(true).play();

  1. var repeat = myTimeline.repeat(); //gets current repeat value
  2. myTimeline.repeat(2); //sets repeat to 2
