HI and welcome to the GreenSock forums,

 

That's a pretty tough question. There really isn't anything in GSAP that is going to handle that for you. I suspect your best bet is to use SVG and re-draw a Bezier path based on the relative positioning of the circled word and the word with that the arrow points to. Performing those calculations could be quite a challenge from what I understand.

 

Do you have any of this in place in yet? Do you have a CodePen demo we could look at? Being that this is pretty far beyond the GSAP API, I'm really not sure how much help I can be but someone might have some suggestions. 

 

Please see the demos from @OSUblake at the end of this thread: 

They allow you to draw connecting lines between elements and then drag the elements around.  A bit similar to what you describe.
