First check this link in Chrome, Firefox and Safari:

 

Jug Bug

 

Notice in Chrome and Firefox it animates the scent on rollover... But in Safari it only animates a portion of the tweens. Specifically, the transforms do not work in Safari when calling TweenMax.fromTo().

 

Interestingly, if you create a simple TweenMax.to() tween, it functions fine. But if you use TweenMax.fromTo() or try to use TweenMax.set() right before calling TweenMax.to() then Safari will not animate the transforms... just standard properties.

 

I assume this is due to the special SVG browser handling in TweenMax... Most likely it's a bug with TweenMax.set() because I assume TweenMax.fromTo() is just a helper method that actually calls TweenMax.set() before calling TweenMax.to(). Right?

Hi Elliot,

 

Thanks for the demo.

If you look in Safaris element inspector you will see that GSAP is in fact animating the opacity and all transforms:

We have recently been alerted to some bugs in Safari when animating css transforms and opacity on SVG elements.

Safari does not render the updates.

 

Try adding this line of code to your demo:

CSSPlugin.useSVGTransformAttr = true

** use version 1.15.1 **

 

 

This will force CSSPlugin to alter the transform attribute on the svg instead of using inline styles. We have seen this work for this particular issue.

 

In the future, please provide a CodePen (or similar) so that we can test our theories easily. Thanks.
