Slow scrolltrigger animation

A few things.

 

Moving your .para xPercent:100, moves it to the right by the value in offsetWidth which about 8000px.

Instead you can position it with left: "100%" to be right after the right edge — making it start immediately upon entering the trigger.

 

Additionally, if you want the animation to happen naturally you can to add that value (8000px) to the end marker of ScrollTrigger.

Hey midnightgamer. How a scrub animation's duration is calculated is explained in the docs which I recommend that you read.

 

The only things that I recommend changing about tailbreezy's demo:

  1. We recommend the condensed string form of eases - in this case ease: "power3.inOut". See the most common GSAP mistakes for more info.
  2. There's no need to do something like select(".para") as the target of your tween. Just pass in the selector string (".para") instead.
  3. If you're going to refer to the same element multiple times it probably makes sense to save it to a variable and use that variable as a reference.
  4. If all you have in your timeline is this one tween, it might make more sense to just use a GSAP tween with an attached ScrollTrigger instead of a timeline. It would have slightly less overhead.
  5. You should use a functional value for your ScrollTrigger end so that it works on resize: end: () => '+=' + select('.para').offsetWidth

Altogether:

gsap.registerPlugin(ScrollTrigger);

const select = (el) => document.querySelector(el);

const para = select(".para");
const firstSection = select(".section-one");

gsap.set(para, { left: "100%" });

gsap.to(para, {
  xPercent: -100,
  ease: "none",
  scrollTrigger: {
    trigger: firstSection,
    markers: true,
    scrub: 0.3,
    start: "top top",
    end: () => "+=" + para.offsetWidth,
    pin: firstSection
  }
});
