First off, I love this library and have been using it forever! Just took the plunge on a membership to support your efforts. Now on to the problem.

 

I'm trying to animate the offset values of a gradient but I'm not able to for some reason? I successfully used the same method to animate stopColor, but no dice on offset. I've tried using a few methods but the example is using cycle. What am I doing wrong here?

 

Please see the codepen below:

Welcome! Nice to hear from a long-time user. 

 

It looks like the problem is twofold: 

  1. "offset" is an attribute. Thus, you need to use the AttrPlugin
  2. The cycling doesn't work in a nested fashion, like inside the AttrPlugin. But that's easy to work around (see demo below)

Here's a forked version that seems to work. I just use a function-based value to spit back the appropriate value.

Does that help?
