momo12 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Guys. I have a question. Is it possible to tell GSAP to resize elements from one edge? I know GSAP is not After Effects but was wondering :)) Like change the Scale Y of an element from the top edge and vice versa. Normally with CSS, you must play with the top and bottom values to do such a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSock Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Are you talking about transformOrigin maybe? Like...when it scales down to zero, for example, you want it to act like its top left (or bottom right or whatever) is "pinned"? If so, yeah, like transformOrigin: "top left" would make it scale as if the top left corner of the element itself is "pinned". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there an easier way to resize elements from one edge? The left rectangle will get scaled down from top edge and the right, from the bottom edge.

Solution GreenSock Posted October 1, 2022 Solution Share Posted October 1, 2022 That's exactly what I just described. transformOrigin. See the Pen NWMMpEP?editors=0110 by GreenSock (@GreenSock) on CodePen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbourne Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Hi this is close to what I’m looking for. Is there a way to scale the top or bottom edge to a specific size? Basically I have a box that I want to scale along one dimension only to make room for another box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSAP Helper Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Hi @cbourne, It's pretty tough to troubleshoot without a minimal demo - the issue could be caused by CSS, markup, a third party library, your browser, an external script that's totally unrelated to GSAP, etc. Would you please provide a very simple CodePen or CodeSandbox that demonstrates the issue? Please don't include your whole project. Just some colored <div> elements and the GSAP code is best (avoid frameworks if possible). See if you can recreate the issue with as few dependancies as possible. If not, incrementally add code bit by bit until it breaks. Usually people solve their own issues during this process! If not, then at least we have a reduced test case which greatly increases your chances of getting a relevant answer. Here's a starter CodePen that loads all the plugins. Just click "fork" at the bottom right and make your minimal demo: See the Pen aYYOdN by GreenSock (@GreenSock) on CodePen If you're using something like React/Next/Vue/Nuxt or some other framework, you may find StackBlitz easier to use. We have a series of collections with different templates for you to get started on these different frameworks: React/Next/Vue/Nuxt. Once we see an isolated demo, we'll do our best to jump in and help with your GSAP-specific questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
