Hello,

Just a question, even if it looks like from a newbie :)

I would like to know if GSAP is the required tool, if I want to have moves in a responsive website ?

A very simple example :
I have a box, aligned on my left side....

 

If I write this :

var $box = $('#box');
TweenLite.to($box, 5, {left:1280} );
 
My box will cross the screen from left to right (if my screen is 1280x800) !

Now, What if I resize my window ?
How could I get a move from left to the right border of my window, even if the size of my browser changes ...?

I hope it is not a stupid question  :mrgreen:

No. That's not a stupid question. You should check out this blog post to learn about some of the responsive features of GSAP. Two really powerful properties are xPercent and yPercent, which will offset your element based on its size.

So by using xPercent with a left percentage, we can make your element stick to the right side like this.

TweenLite.set(box, { left: "100%", xPercent: -100 });

Here's a couple different ways you could animate it to that side. Option 2 uses "x" instead of "left", which is a transform, so it will perform and look smoother than "left".

// Option 1
TweenLite.to(box1, 3, { left: "100%", xPercent: -100 });

// Option 2
var x = -document.body.offsetWidth + box2.offsetWidth;
TweenLite.set(box2, { left: "100%", xPercent: -100, x: x });
TweenLite.to(box2, 3, { x: 0 });
