Stagger elements randomly

[celli]

I have a staggered effect with GSAP with a random rotationX property. The 'groups' render randomly with the random property each time I reload the page--but I am trying to get each piece to render randomly with different degrees of the rotationX property in the same animation. So, in effect each 'group' would be starting from a completely different randomX position, and they would all be flipping from different positions relative to each other.... How is this possible ?

The stagger methods were written to make it easy to animate multiple properties (to or from) the same values with offset start times.

If you want unique values for each tween, you will need to use a loop. Since you are using jQuery already, each() makes it pretty easy

 

//loop through each shape and create a tween with random values for each
shapes.each(function(index, element){
  tl.from(element, 0.9, {autoAlpha:0, scale:Math.random() * 2, rotationX:randomNumber(-80, 180),
                               transformOrigin:"bottom center"}, index * 0.02)
})

Thank You Carl! That explains it perfectly
