Hi guys,

 

Just quickly (I haven't got time atm to slap an example codepen together), is there a way to toggle the CSS className attribute?

 

 

I have an object that's being manipulated a lot, and one of the tweens is removing a class from an element, and animating it's new position accordingly.

className: '-=responsive-example_small'

This works fine, until I reverse the timeline... At which point the class isn't re-added to object, and obviously, no animation occurs, resulting in a broken reverse animation.

 

I know I can remove the "-=", but that overwrites all the classes on the element in question as well, which is again, undesirable and dangerous to maintain.

 

Is there a toggle for ClassName that I simply haven't come across before? Much like JQuery's $(e).toggleClass('someClass')?

 

If not, is it a possibility for the future?

 

 

Thanks a lot! :)

Hi kez1304  :)

 

I don't know why it wouldn't work on reverse. Without a CodePen it's a hard to troubleshoot.

 

Here's a simple example of the timeline reversing after removing a class on play() and it all works correctly.

 

See the Pen wgwmOV by PointC (@PointC) on CodePen

 

Without seeing the problem, I'm not sure what else we can offer you for a solution.

 

Happy tweening.

We'd have to see why you're animating via a class change rather than animating the properties in the tween and the reason for the invalidate(). 

 

Feel free to fork my pen from above and recreate a simplified version of the problem you're experiencing. Without code and a desired behavior, it's tough to give the best advice.

 

Happy tweening.
