Trying to scale up a specific path from SVG

[PinkMeNow]

I'm trying to scale up specific path from SVG graphic. It's not working so I may be missing something.

 

Path definition

<symbol id="dot"><path id="smalldot" class="cls-2" d="M104.9,36a3,3,0,1,1-3-3A3,3,0,0,1,104.9,36Z"/></symbol>

 

JS

TweenMax.to("#dot", 3, { scale: 5 });

Hi @PinkMeNow 

 

I'm not sure how you're adding the symbol instance since you didn't post that part of the code, but you should be able to add it like this:

 

<use id="dotClone" xlink:href="#dot"/>

 

Then you can animate it like this:

 

// via the ID
TweenMax.to("#dotClone", 3, {scale:5});

// or use works too
TweenMax.to("use", 3, {scale:5});

 

Hopefully that helps. Happy tweening.

Hi @PinkMeNow,

 

What is your reason to use <symbol> here?
Information about <symbol> .

 

You can name this object with the id = "dot" ...

 

See the Pen aPWMrb by mikeK (@mikeK) on CodePen

Attention: You use the same id 'smalldot' for several objects. Use 'smalldot' as class! More info

 

Happy tweening ...
