Split Text

Hi, i try to use SplitText but it don't work.

I made a simple page and i can animate the first text block

 

var $Test0  = $('#test0');

var Test0Tl = new TimelineMax();

Test0Tl.from($Test0, 0.28, {x:100, delay:0.5, opacity:0, ease:Power1.easeOut});  

 

But if i try to use SplitText with the second block it don't work

 

var tl = new TimelineLite, 
    mySplitText = new SplitText("#test", {type:"words,chars"}), 
    chars = mySplitText.chars; //an array of all the divs that wrap each character

TweenLite.set("#test", {perspective:400});

tl.staggerFrom(chars, 0.8, {opacity:0, scale:0, y:80, rotationX:180, transformOrigin:"0% 50% -50",  ease:Back.easeOut}, 0.01, "+=0");

 

in my page there is

 

<div id="scroll-container" class="scroll-container">	
	<div id="test0" style="margin-top: 100px; margin-left: 100px;margin-bottom: 100px;">
		Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aliquam ac lorem lectus. Aliquam placerat dignissim augue. Donec eleifend nibh lorem, ac porttitor erat porta eget. Vestibulum tempor ultrices massa, at aliquam metus sodales consectetur. Aliquam a accumsan tellus. Donec ac sem vitae metus condimentum efficitur. Nulla volutpat cursus ante, id facilisis dui euismod et. Suspendisse hendrerit, ante ac accumsan fermentum, libero magna vestibulum augue, vitae vehicula nulla nisl nec neque. Quisque lectus nisl, aliquet id pulvinar eu, tristique id lacus. Mauris egestas ipsum vel elit sodales faucibus. Duis aliquet tempus ullamcorper. Sed vitae porta erat, et suscipit tellus.

It looks like you're loading the ES module version of SplitText, directly in the browser (without declaring it as a module in the script tag). I'd recommend loading the regular ES5 SplitText file which is in your downloads, in the "minified/utils" folder.

Thank's! It works!

 

I included the file in "bonus-files-for-npm-users" folder instead "minified/utils"
