hi guys, the guy in this video say it give the interactive demo to play and understand the timeline https://greensock.com/position-parameter but i cant found the link ? and the demo on page are not interactive and i cant edit the code ! I'm afraid to look a little idiot but someone could provide me the link from this demo, because that's guy does not give a solution about the issue from 6:40 So i need the demo to try understand how solve this issue i also get in my engine , thanks and sorry if is a misunderstand from my English.

hi guys , what the good way to do this in a timeline ? .from([item1,item2,item3], 1, {rotation:Math.randomFrom(1,4), ease: Power4.easeOut },'#item') My arrays items are dynamic and never same, and i want to dispatch the random value in properties for each items in the array ? what the best way to proceed and for keep a good readable structure in the timeline. I can maybe do something like this , but it kind weird ! and ugly code. tl.call(() => { items.forEach(it => {tl.from(it, 0.2, {rotation:Math.randomFrom(1,4), ease: Power4.easeOut },'#item') }) },null,null,'#item') If you have some suggest, i take it

With the demise of Adobe Edge, it looks like I am going to focus on using Google Web Designer as a central GUI animation tool. Having coded using GS in Flash for some time, I am glad that GSAP is easy to bring into GWD, especially since it is hosted on their CDN. I personally preferred Edge but never used GS in it, as I was able to make what I needed most of the time without it. My question is about how I could trigger GS functions/effects using events on GWD timeline. I've tried creating events and calling functions that have TweenLite calls in them, I've tried calling TweenLite directly in the event function and neither one works. If anyone has some guidance on this, it would be very welcome. Here's an example of the code generated for a timeline event that is currently not firing the tween at 2.1 seconds <script type="text/javascript" gwd-events="handlers"> window.gwd = window.gwd || {}; gwd.scaleCTA = function(event) { TweenMax.to(redCTA, 0.5, { scale: 1, ease: Back.easeOut.config(4) }); }; </script> I've tried also replacing this with the function call that currently works on rollover to bump the CTA up.

Am trying experiment fake physic correlation with math random and bouncing tween. But am not realy satisfying from the result . Do existe some codePen example where poeple emulate fake physic bouncing on ground with timeLine ? I can not get a dynamic result that will more naturally lead to the percussion of the ground. this is how i approche the timeline animation for now. const tl = new TimelineLite({paused:true}); const speed = 1; //? need sync with spine2d need study? if(items){ const ih = 75; // constante items height from size : help math performance tl.addLabel('#itemFocus', 0 ) // start item move and focus to source .addLabel( '#HitItem', 0.6 ) // source hit items and project to target .addLabel( '#TargetHitItem', 0.7 ) // target Hit by items .addLabel( '#ItemFall', 1 ) // items start falling .addLabel( '#ItemHitGround', 2 ) // items hits grounds and bouncing tl.call(() => { source.s.state.setAnimation(1, "atk2", false) }) .to(items.map(it => it.position), 0.5, {x:'+=150', y:(i,it)=>`-=${100+ih*i}`, ease: Back.easeOut.config(1.4) },'#itemFocus') .to(items.map(it => it.scale), 0.5, {x:'+=1', y:'+=1', ease: Back.easeOut.config(1.4) },'#itemFocus') .to(items.map(it => it.scale), 0.3, {x:1, y:1, ease: Back.easeOut.config(4) }) .fromTo(items, 1, {rotation:Math.PI*2},{rotation:()=>Math.randomFrom(0,2,2), ease: Back.easeOut.config(1.4) },'#itemFocus') //HitItem .to(items.map(it => it.position), 0.1, {x:target.p.x ,y:target.p.y-(target.p.height/2), ease: Back.easeIn.config(1) },'#HitItem' ) .to(items.map(it => it.scale), 1, {x:'+=1' ,y:'+=1', ease: Elastic.easeOut.config(1, 0.3) },'#TargetHitItem' ) .to(items.map(it => it.position), 1, {x:(i,it)=>`-=${ih*i}`, y:`-=${target.p.height}`, ease: Expo.easeOut },'#TargetHitItem+=0.1' ) .to(items.map(it => it.scale), 1, {x:1 ,y:1, ease: Expo.easeIn },'#ItemFall' ) .to(items.map(it => it.position), 1, {y:target.p.y, ease: Expo.easeIn },'#ItemFall' ) // fall down // bouncing ground items.forEach(it => { const rx = Math.randomFrom(-20,50); tl.to(it.position, 0.3, {x:(i)=>`+=${rx}`, y:'-=50', ease: Power2.easeOut } ,'#ItemHitGround' ) // items hit gound and start fake Physic .to(it.position, 0.6, {y:target.p.y, ease: Bounce.easeOut },'#ItemHitGround+=0.3' ) // Y .to(it.position, 0.6, {x:`+=${rx*0.6}`,ease: Power2.easeInOut },'#ItemHitGround+=0.3' ) // X }); The physic bouncing start at label `#ItemHitGround`. Maybe i do something wrong with math ? note: am not using any physics engine in my projet, i just want simulate fake physic with easing when i need. thanks

Hello , Im new to GreenSock fourm . the question is I have a target using Timeline in forloop and the target's position changed to where the first loop started . I want it to be the same position to go . How can i fix it ? Any help would be appreciated . thanks ! let tl = new TimelineLite() for (let i = 0; i < this.restoreInnerStone.length; i++) { tl.from(".stoneDestination", 1, { left: this.restoreInnerStone[i].xx, top: this.restoreInnerStone[i].yy, });

I've prepared animations for two objects in js, how should i set up the TimeLine so that it executes flipCards() function after let's say 2 seconds from window load? Additionaly it would be nice if I could adjust delays between animations of each object.

Hello everyone. It's my first post here and i really like this library. Before talking just note that i'm french and I'll probaly do somme grammar faults. So, my problem is that I've created a Timeline and then paused it (You can look the Codepen). Then i've created a SetTimeOut to play it after 2s. When the Timeline play after the pause, the H1 and H2 won't work. Then if we remove the pause and the settimeout, the H1 and H2 animation will work. I've worked on it for few hours and it's driving me crazy. I didn't found any post related to this so i'm asking you a little hand for me! ? (you maybe need to go to CodePen to scroll and see the h1 and h2 ;).

Ok. This one is killing me. I've spent two days on it already. I think I just need to know more about nested timelines and labels. But here it is: -When the mouse pointer enters the "Hover Button" I'd like the playhead to play until 50% of the animation has completed, then stop. -If the mouse pointer leaves the "Hover Button" before the playhead reaches 50%, then the playhead should reverse, heading back towards the start of the timeline. -If the mouse pointer leaves the "Hover Button" after the playhead has reached 50%, the the playhead should reverse back to the 50% position, NOT all the way back to the start of the timeline. This much so far I've got, although I used two separate timelines back to back with a number of "if" statements using the progress() method to accomplish this. I'm sure there is a more elegant solution using only one timeline, I just can't seem to find it at the moment. The problems come when the timeline reaches 100%. -After the playhead reaches 100%, I need everything to reset back to it's initial state on load. So, in other words, after the playhead reaches 100%, it should snap back to the very start of the timeline and all of the above described behavior should repeat itself all over again. This is whats giving me trouble. I have tried using pause(0), seek(0), time(0). None of those seem to be resetting things without adding extra unwanted stuff to the hover behavior. By the way, when I say timeline here I am referring to the red line on the codepen demo. Not either of the two separate back to back timelines I used to get what I've got so far. Any ideas? This one is frying my brain. Lol. Thanks for any help! Here is the codepen:

Hi! I have two videos on the timeline: After some seconds of the playing of the second video, it calls dispose() of the first one. But the dispose free the memory from the first one so fast that the play of the second video gives a small "bottleneck" in playback at the time of the dispose(). A "bottleneck" of half a second, but ideally it would not "bottleneck" anything and the playback would be 100% fluid. Is there a way of the dispose() free the memory more slowly? Thanks a lot.

I'm creating a landing page and using GSAP to animate some text according the the user's scroll position. How can I keep the landing page in full view and only start scrolling down the page once the text animation has reached its end?

Hello, I was trying to make a hover function with GSAP with timelinemax. In this, there are lists of elements which on hover will take up an x position and moves back to original position on mouse out. But, here, when I move the cursor in between lists items, the animation doesn't stop, but instead, it waits for the previous one to finish. Traditionally in jQuery, this is achieved through stop() method. What can we do here? and how do we do it? Thanks

Good evening, I want span one and two to rotate inward causing the cross menu effect however they are just disappearing entirely on click, but I would like this button to remain visible on the right side of the screen while showing the navigation menu , also when the screen is resized to mobile you will notice a black space on top of the image full screen background, how can I fix these issues? any advice appreciate. thank you.

Hi, so I'm currently trying to make the dashed trail rotate around the globe clockwise. However I keep getting an error saying that the tl, or "trail" has not been defined even though it looks like it is. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hi guys, So I've only done pretty basic stuff with GSAP at the minute but i've been set the task of building something similar to menu section on this link. http://www.johos.at The scroll timeline thing with changing background / text I just want to know if it's possible to build something similar using Scroll Magic and GSAP? I don't fancy investing a couple of days trying to do it to find out it's not possible.

Hi I'm fairly new to greensock, and I'm loving it. I'm making a 3D timeline(or track) that I'm moving eggs forward and backward when scrolling. I've used perspective to get the '3D' effect. But, I've run into problems, getting the egg to 'fall off'/disappear when it reaches the end. I want to make the whole egg disappear/re-appear when it reaches the end, not portions of it as it moves out of the view-box. Is there some cool way greensock can help me do this? Here's the link to the codepen Any comments would be appreciated.

Greetings, I'm new at GreenSock ( first project ) and as you may guess, I do have some struggles, I want to group the tweens in the timeline, rather than going individually, first two goes at the same time and then the second two and so on... I really try to figure out by myself, I add a minus delay but it's not working properly with ScrollMagic or I can't make it work. Here is my code: let controllerPerspectiveFirst = new ScrollMagic.Controller(); perspectiveTimeline = new TimelineMax(); perspectiveTimeline .to( '#as-perspective-bg--mountain--01', .4, { autoAlpha: .72, scaleY: .8, scaleX: .8, ease: Power4.easeOut } ) .from( '#as-perspective-bg--mountain--02', .4, { scaleY: 1.4, scaleX: 1.4, autoAlpha: 0, ease: Power4.easeOut } ) .to( '#as-perspective-bg--mountain--01', .4, { autoAlpha: 0, scaleY: 0, scaleX: 0, ease: Power4.easeOut } ) .to( '#as-perspective-bg--mountain--02', .4, { width: '180vw', scaleY: .6, scaleX: .6, ease: Power4.easeOut } ) .from( '#as-perspective-bg--desert', .4, { scaleY: 1.4, scaleX: 1.4, autoAlpha: 0, ease: Power4.easeOut } ); Thanks much.

Demo: https://codesandbox.io/s/n34pvjxyxj Hi, fellow GSAP'ers! The topic of playing a timeline in reverse keeps troubling me. The Demo above is one, where, within Vue, a parent component calls function on a child component (using $refs). As the console output shows, the functions are indeed called, but the animation is not played in reverse. I do not understand why, because: - the timeline is returned to a var, right? - the staggered animations use `staggerFromTo` , even though I assume that using any of the other two should eventually work, too What am I doing wrong here (again)? Do I misunderstand the idea of having the timeline saved to a variable (here: animateLogo)? Are reverse animation on timeline using a stagger feature not possible? (I doubt that! It's GreenSock!) Thanks you in advance! PS: the actual GSAP-related code parts are kept as short as possible. Please ignore the other stuff, which is just there to wrap the letters... (no, I am still not using SplitText... shame on me!)

Hi, I'm trying to playing around with the features of GSAP, but I can't figure out how to work with timelines, I'm new to all this, any help would be appreciated. What I'm trying to do in my code- Each time the v-shaped silver svg translates away from its initial position and back, the text changes, to a different one, similarly it happens once more. Now it works well in the first iteration, but once the animation restarts, the timing gets disturbed, I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here, hopefully I was able to explain the issue, thanks in advance and hope you guys have a great day!

Hey there, this is my first time using GSAP. I'd like to play my animation backwards on hover. The only thing I can't figure out jet is how i can make the animation do that in 1 second. Any ideas? If this is not possible it would be also nice if the animation just jumps back to its origin position on hover. In addition to that: Is it possible to start the animation again on mouseout? Best regards Max

What's up good people I am trying to create my own TimeLine which will show the element (red box) at the random positions for 50 times. Moreover, it should change background color to random between red, green, blue everytime before the box shows up. I am not sure how to do it. Should I define TimeLine, stop it, then add there instructions via "for" loop for 50 times and then run the Timeline via play() method? I think i am doing it wrong, maybe it can be done another way...

Hi guys first time asking help here ?, I'm doing some stuff with timelinemax and trying to make animation without make another starting while the first is active, i've discovered the isActive property but even by trying it and reading some other post i didn't get any solution for my method, does anyone can help me thank you if (!tl.isActive()) { tl .add('move') .set(this.$refs.mask, { clearProps: 'all' }) .set(this.$refs.tabs, { clearProps: 'all' }) .set(icons, { clearProps: 'all' }) .set(mask, { x, y, scale, }) .to(this.$refs.picture, 0.8, { x, y, scale, ease: Power4.easeOut, }, 'move') .to(this.$refs.triggers, 0.1, { opacity: 0, ease: Power4.easeOut, }, 'move') .to(mask, 0.3, { autoAlpha: 1, }, 'move+=0.4') .to(tab, 0.3, { backgroundColor: '#F4F0E9', ease: Power4.easeOut, }, 'move+=0.2'); }

I have a group of animation that would be executed one after the other which is perfect to do with timeline and its labels but I also want to add on a single repeating animation that would be playing throughout this whole timeline and would end when the timeline ends. When I added this stand alone animation inside the timeline in the first label, everything else waited for it to finish playing. It still happened even if I put it at the top before the chain animation with labels and without using any labels to calculate the timing. Of course, I can choose not to use labels at all and calculate the time needs to be added in between all the animations manually but that would defeat the purpose of using the timeline in the first place. //want to repeat this sprite throughout the whole timeline timeline.to('.repeating-animation', 1.2, { repeat: 4, //anyway to calculate this automatically so that it stops when the timeline ends instead of giving a fixed value? backgroundPosition: "-10px 0", rotation: 0.01, ease: SteppedEase.config(5) }, "0") //starts at the beginning //followed by chained animation //but everything down below waits for the reapting animation above to be finished before executing .addLabel("label1") .from('.sample', 1, { autoAlpha: 0, ease: Sine.easeOut }, "label1+=0.5") .addLabel("label2") .from('.sample2', 1, { autoAlpha: 0, ease: Sine.easeOut }, "label2+=0.5") .addLabel("label3") .from('.sample3', 1, { autoAlpha: 0, ease: Sine.easeOut }, "label3+=0.5") //and so on I'm wondering - if there is a cleaner proper way to play this repeating animation throughout the timeline. - if there is a way to make the number of times being repeated to be dynamic to total length of the timeline? So, it stops when the timeline ends? Thanks in advance!

Hi all, First of all, thank you for the lovely community and the support given. I have spend many hours going over older topics to figure things out in the past and its been a massive help. I am working on a new project where I want to trigger animations based on a scroll position. I know this has been done many times before and after doing some research I decided that I do not want to use a plugin (like Scrollmagic for example) for performance reasons. On one of the posts here I found out that there is a newish API within JavaScript that can handle my needs called IntersectionObserver, I am using a library to make sure that I have a wide browser support for this technology (https://github.com/russellgoldenberg/scrollama). If you would look at my Codepen, you will notice that I am trying to trigger an animation on the second element based on the scroll position. I am using .progress(); to do so, where I call in a value between 0-1 based on the scroll position (taken from the Scrollama library). When you scroll down, you will notice that the box on the left moves position (as intended). The problem I am having though, is when you scroll up it does not move back. I am assuming that when using the .progress(); function, the timeline will be animated to whatever position is being fed into this? Unfortunately I can not get this to work. I have been searching on the internet for hours now and I just can't seem to find the issue. Hopefully this explains my problem clear enough, thank you in advance for any help!

Hi, I was looking for animation on scrolling and i came across this So I played with it a little. I used scrollmagic to pin the layout during the duratoin of the box animation. So now i want to create similar animation timelines, with few changes. How do i put an individual timeline into a function and call it on scroll. Ive tried this syntax, but it doesnt seem to work : jQuery('.Screen').each(function () { var currentScreen = this; new ScrollMagic.Scene({ triggerElement: currentScreen, duration: 2000, offset: iScreenSize_H }) .on('start', function () { console.log(this.triggerElement().id); }).addTo(controller); }); Thank you .

I'd like to see if there's a way to load GSAP through JavaScript and then create a timeline after it's loaded and ready. I tried to use fetch + then to achieve this, but I think there's something I'm doing wrong here. fetch('https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/gsap/1.20.3/TweenMax.min.js') .then(function() { var tl = new TimelineMax({repeat: -1}); tl.to("#square", 1, {x: 300}) .to("#square", 1, {x: 0}) ; }); Th error I'm receiving: Uncaught (in promise) ReferenceError: TimelineMax is not defined I'm not sure if this is just a JavaScript error or an error with how GSAP needs to be loaded.
