Elastic / Gooey Animation Effect with GSAP?

[jackb87 3 Likes (Newbie)]

Hi,

I'm new to using GSAP and was wondering whether it was possible to create  elastic SVG animations such as the ones in this Codrops article http://tympanus.net/Development/ElasticSVGElements. They're using SnapSVG which i've heard a lot about but never used. Can this kind of effect be achieved with GSAP alone or is there a plugin to integrate some of the Snap functionality? 

Thanks in advance, 
Jack

Hi jackb87 

 

There isn't any GSAP plugin for this type of SVG animation , but actually you don't need any plugin , you just need to tween SVG path points with Elastic ease .

 

pls check this out for more info about SVG paths : http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/paths.html

Hi Diaco.AW, 

 

Thanks for the reply! That's great news. Do you know of an example Codepen where someone has done something similar? I'm having some trouble achieving this in practice. 

 

Kind Regards, 
Jack
