Unpin an element after gsap animation

Hi,

    I have created a gsap animation in my website. Inorder for it to autoplay i have not specified the duration while creating the scrollmagic scene. Now the animation is autoplaying (which is the intended effect if was going for) but now the section stays locked in place since there is no duration to tell the animation that it is over. So currently, the next elements are being overlapped by the pinned element. How can i fix this ? How can i unpin the element after the animation ?

Hey Heinek and welcome to the GreenSock forums!

 

ScrollMagic isn't a GreenSock product and we don't really support it here. But we'd like to help if we can - you likely don't need ScrollMagic for this sort of thing. 

 

What's the end goal/behavior that you're wanting? From your description I can't really tell.

Hi, 

      The effect i am going for is, i want the animation to stay pinned and to autoplay on reaching that element. Here, what is happening is, i'm using scrollmagic to pin the element in place till the animation is over. But since im not specifying the duration in scrollmagic, it stays pinned in place, even after the animation is over. Thanks for the speedy reply.

So you want:

  1. User to scroll to where the top of "TEXT 2" is at the top of their viewport.
  2. "TEXT 2" element pins to the top.
  3. "TEXT 2" element animates somehow.
  4. When the animation is finished, it unpins and goes back to it's original position.

Is this correct? There are several unknown parts and I want to understand your goal before writing code.
