UncleMuscles Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Hi, GSAP is awesome! I have made an animated 'P' but mainly using SVG <animate> so far I using the SVG to animate strokedash-offset, dash-opacity and fill. I'm aware that I should probably use Draw for the stroke stuff but I can't afford it, I've been out of work for 10 years+ and recently I've decided to become a webdev so I've been designing my portfolio so money is tight. I was wondering how would I animate these 3 attributes as I have tried using .to() and putting {strokeOpacity: 0} as it is set to 100% initaly but this does not work. How come? I have also had the same problem with strokeDashOffset and Fill. Hoe can I animate these properties with GSap like I have with SVG below? https://stackblitz.com/edit/paulscv-2qssl8?file=src%2Fbg-components%2FletterP.js Ultimatly my goale is to animates these things with scrollMagic. But for now it would b e nice just to animate them. Is this possible? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution elegantseagulls Posted July 9, 2021 Solution Share Posted July 9, 2021 You can animate strokeDashoffset, and all other svg attributes in gsap just as you would any other property. Maybe your target isn't accurate for your animation? also make sure your case is correct strokeDashOffset strokeDashoffset See the Pen GRmqbpY by ryan_labar (@ryan_labar) on CodePen For fine tuning your strokeDashArray animation, check out the DrawSVGPlugin: https://greensock.com/docs/v3/Plugins/DrawSVGPlugin Also, we don't recommend using ScrollMagic. GSAP has ScrollTrigger: https://greensock.com/docs/v3/Plugins/ScrollTrigger 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So once I removed them it ran fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
