I'm trying to make a kinda widget that has the icon rolling from one side to the other, with an arc filling the same path. So I tried Bezier Easing plugin to make it similar to the css cubic-bezier but there's still discrepancy

 

I wonder if there's a way to track the path and make the icon move along with the progress?

Bezier easing and a Bezier motion path are two totally different things. As it is, your ease value of [0,0,1,1] isn't doing anything. That's just a linear ease.

 

The problem is you're using CSS to do the job of the DrawSVGPlugin, which will calculate the correct length of the stroke. Also, your paths seem to be reversed so I flipped them using scaleX = -1.

Thank you so much for saving me tons of time looking though the docs
