I'm trying to come up with a "better" way to write these morphSVG animations. The issue is that I have about 100+ paths I want to animated all at once. Everything works fine but I'm assuming there must be a more efficient way to do this, maybe with some sort of loop and an array? Then a function that gets called each time it loops? As of right now my project has like 2000 lines of JavaScript and I'm not even finished! In the codepenn you will find a small example with six different elements I'm morphing at the same trigger point. Thanks in advance and have a great day everyone! Kind regards, -Bruno

Hi, Is there a better way to do this? I want to load about 15 different videos all up for a portfolio type site. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Phil

Hey there! First time poster here, just got my membership and I'd love to get some help on an animation I'm trying to merge with scrollmagic! I made this little SVG animation of a tree growing using TweenMax and it worked out pretty well. Now I'm trying to integrate it with scrollmagic and I'm having a hard time figuring out what's wrong in the process. I have the 8 different stages (paths) and I wanted them to occur based on scroll position. I have a simple codepenn linked and if anyone could check it out and give me some pointers on what's missing or what needs to be changed in order for the animations to happen. My JS experience is fairly limited but don't go easy on me I'm here to learn! Thanks in advance and have a great day everyone! Kind regards, Bruno

hi, I made ​​an animation with the fingers of the characters , as you can see from my codepen . I used TweenMax.staggerFrom so you can move each finger with a small delay . but I have a problem, how can I say that the animation should begin from the beginning all together ? Now the animation starts from an hand per time , but I would to say that all the hands they need to start the animation of the fingers at the same time , without any delay. maybe it is better don't use staggerFrom for my scope? any help, suggestion or advice? many thanks

I'm half afraid to suggest this because it probably exists and it just didn't read the docs close enough, but I think it'd be really useful to have an overwrite mode that checks the assigned value of a tweened property, and doesn't overwrite if the value of one tween matches the value of another conflicting tween. For example, if you have 1 sec tween to Y position "10", and during that tween you call another 1 sec tween, also to Y position "10", the second tween could be ignored with this proposed overwrite mode. Could be useful when multiple UI elements effect the same targets and you don't want a stutter caused by successive tweens with unchanged property values. Hope that all makes sense.

Hi All, I need some help to use Waving 3d shaded flag example. I want to filp left flag and bezier animation direction. Anybody can help me? Thanks in advance.

I have this issue where I'm tweening a solid element and while the tween is animation there's a weird white line on the right bottom of the element. Once the Tween is complete the white border disappears. The weird part is that it's only visible on safari (mobile and desktop). Please see the code pen for simplified example. PLEASE HELP!!!

My son needed a way to record the data his weather station collected. This is the start of the interface I wrote for him. http://codepen.io/dotComb/pen/Gqdydw Hope this helps someone! -Dan

Hey folks, This is my first every question on the forum, so I hope to get some answers from some of you who are veterans and much more expert than I am. I've been using Greensock recently, specifically the TweenMax version. I have to say, GREENSOCK IS AMAZING! On to my question, this will be quick and should be fairly simple to answer, so here goes: How do I get an object to rotate in place after a button it is clicked, and then get it to reset and get ready to rotate again before the button is clicked again? I would really appreciate some help on this, and I have to re-emphasize that I really think GREENSOCK IS AMAZING! Thanks again folks!

Hey, I would like to create a matrix style code rain with GSAP using the SplitText Utility, but I've encountered an error when following your tutorial video. not sure what I'm doing wrong... any advice would be appreciated.

hi, I am trying to tween width and height with TweenMax in Adobe Animate CC: First frame script (in Animate CC): var root = this; // TweenMax.to(root.myBox, 1.25, {scaleX:2.0, scaleY:2.0, ease:Elastic.easeOut}); // --> works // TweenMax.to(root.myBox, 1.25, {width:"500px"}); // --> NOT WORKS TweenMax.to(root.myBox, 1.25, {left:"12px"}); // --> ALSO NOT WORKS ("myBox" is a name of movie clip on stage). Using: Animate CC Version: 15.1.0.210. TweenMax.min.js Version: 1.19.0 (also tried 1.18.2). createjs-2015.11.26.min.js. Thanks.

Hi, i have problem with smooth SVG elements animation controlled by draggable. Its not working properly, pls check codepen http://codepen.io/mkurdziel/pen/XKEzxm. First thing is that not every element in animating, whats more, some of them are not coming back after animating. I think that TweenMax.ticker.addEventListener("tick", updateVelocity); is not working properly, pls check console. As you can see, its not registering all of the "move" there are gaps between numbers e.g. 100, 105, 107. It should be 100, 101, 102, 103 etc. Do you have any idea to resolve this problem?

I've been using GSAP for a few months now. I'm currently using TweenMax in a project that allows users to set entrance/exit animations for HTML elements. I've written the code that adds each entrance/exit timeline to parent timelines. What I'm wondering, though, is whether there's a way to export all timeline/tween properties to JavaScript Objects or JSON, store the data, and subsequently import the data after reloading the webpage? In theory, this would prevent the need to create each timeline on the fly with each web request. Thanks to anyone who can help me out. I'm currently using TimelineMax together with CSSPlugin.

Hello! I'm trying to create a particle animation, something like this: http://i.imgur.com/OGpHy9m.gif The only thing difference is that i want each bubble to move a bit sideways as well. I found most of what i needed on the forum but now I'm stuck. As you can see in the codepen the bubbles move a bit but when the animation restarts it looks like a glitch, as i understand it, the bubbles start at their original x and y positions which is why that happen. I tried with yoyo set to true but that did nothing. I'm fairly new to Javascript so the code might not be best practice, feel free to correct me on this , always good to learn. Any help is much appreciated! Thank you

TL;DR I upgraded our project to use 1.19.0 after using 1.18.2 and requirejs couldn't find TweenLite unless I defined it explicitly in the require config paths object. Is it the expected behavior? We do amd with requirejs. My GSAP section in the paths object looks like this (there is also a base url defined of our external libs server): paths: { // ... TweenMax: {min: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/minified/TweenMax.min'), source: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/uncompressed/TweenMax')}, TimelineMax: {min: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/minified/TweenMax.min'), source: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/uncompressed/TweenMax')}, ScrollToPlugin: {min: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/minified/plugins/ScrollToPlugin.min'), source: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/uncompressed/plugins/ScrollToPlugin')}, DrawSVGPlugin: {min: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/minified/plugins/DrawSVGPlugin.min'), source: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/uncompressed/plugins/DrawSVGPlugin')}, // ... } This setup worked for a long time now without changing anything but version numbers up until 1.18.2. After changing the paths to 1.19.0 I got a console error by reuirejs saying it got 404 on TweenLite because it tried to load it from localhost - require.min.js:34 GET http://localhost/TweenLite.js The way to overcome it was to add a line in paths for TweenLite too TweenLite: {min: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/minified/TweenMax.min'), source: serviceURL('tweenmax/1.19.0/uncompressed/TweenMax')}, Is it an expected behavior? Is it a bug? Am I missing something in the require config? Thanks. Tom.

Hello all - I would love some help figuring out the z-index. I have everything like I want, however; the black Nike check is not moving to the front (over top of the yellow check on hover). Take a peek at my codepen, any help is much appreciated! Thank you! nick

Hola forum... first time posting... please note I'm about 6 months new to using the JS version of TweenMax and I still am very much learning. I was a TweenMax user over in Flash for YEARS and am VERY grateful for what you've created in JS. You have created a wonderful tool! However, I've got a prob. I haven't put this in codepen as what I'm trying to get working seems to work just fine in straight HTML by itself... including in Safari, my problem browser (link below). A quick description of what I'm doing: I'm using a WP theme ('The Ken' created by Artbees) w/a fullscreen slideshow plugin. The slideshow is primarily images with the exception of one or two slides I'd like to add animated content to (all SVG). The way I load my animation is simply by placing an <iframe> in my slide content. This works beautifully in both Chrome and Firefox... but Safari and any browser in IOS renders my animation painfully choppy (nearly non-existent unless you stare at it closely... so I know it is 'working'!). This is a URL to the actual source being loaded up in the <iframe>... you'll see this runs wonderfully in any browser (including IOS browsers): http://aztacofestival.com/wp-content/themes/ken-child/main-slide-logo.html Here is the final Dev page in question: http://aztacofestival.com/arizona-taco-festival-2016/ There are four slides in the slideshow at the moment. Please click to slide 2—this is the slide in question. This page I'm developing uses TweenMax all over the place and it's working brilliantly (ie: top right 'We <3 Our Sponsors" is TweenMax. The testimonial roll in the boilerplate / footer area when the pages loads is TweenMax, and all the rollovers below the main slideshow (scroll down) are using TweenMax (again, working beautifully in all browsers). Please note that all my animations are triggered via their own functions. I've tried whittling back all my animation to just the main logo scaling and still have the issue (There is a lot going on. I figured the issue may have been that the animations combined are processor intensive... doesn't seem to be the issue as I have reduced this animation to 1 simple item and still have the issue). I'm worried this may come down to a theme issue... it's just that it's only occurring on Safari (and any IOS browser) that has me confused. Something strange you'll encounter in Safari: When you inspect the source via Safari's 'web inspector' the animations all begin to move / work. But only when in the inspector / rolling over the SVG items markup). Thank you in advance for taking a moment!

Hi All, I'm trying animate elements in an svg to fade in, once all the elements are visible, they will fade out after short delay and the animation will run again. Should I use onComplete? KJ

Just want to say that I've posted the same question on StackOverflow, but figured I would post it here too I'm really into Google's Polymer and I love GSAP - and so far I've been using the two in conjunction without a hitch. Unfortunately I have now hit a problem - how do I use GSAP (TweenMax to be specific) with custom css variables? For example: To change someCssProperty of someElement I would TweenMax.to(someElement, 1, someCssProperty: "value"); but the someCssProperty part becomes an issue when I'm trying to animate a css variable, which take on the form --some-custom-css-variable I have tried to use TweenMax.to(someElement, 1, --some-custom-css-Property: "value"); (obviously gives me errors) and I also tried to use TweenMax.to(someElement, 1, "--some-custom-css-Property": "value"); (quotes around the some-custom-Css-property) - however this results in no change/animation and an invalid tween value error message on the developer console. So the question is: how would I go about animating custom css variables with TweenMax (GSAP)? Thanks for any help EDIT: I have tried using classes through TweenMax.to("SomeElement", 5, {className:"class2"}); But this changed the element style as if I had declared it in css with a SomeElement:hover {} style (as in it does not animate, just changes immediately)

Why onRepeat function in tweenMax works only once?

Draggable.create("#myDIV", { type:"x", zIndexBoost:false, throwProps:false, onDragEnd:function() { TweenMax.to($("#myDIV"), 5,{css:{left: 0}}); console.log('DRAG END'); }, }); TweenMax.to($("#myDIV"), 5,{css:{left: 0}}); I wanted this to trigger every time drag ends, but this only animates only once and is not accurately goes to its original position

I'm getting this error when attempting to implement Draggable. I'm confused because I am able to do some of the functions that are shown in the 'Get Started' section i.e var obj = {myProp:0};TweenLite.to(obj, 2, {myProp:100}); I added a codepen - very simple representation of what I am doing. Any idea what's going wrong here?

Hello, I'm trying to scale a div containing an image. The animation is alright and does what I want, but I have a strange blur during the zoom, and after the animation is complete, the image is focused again. I've linked my codepen, I don't know where it comes from, and I try some fixes, but none of them works. Thanks for help, Arthur

Hi, I created a polyline SVG curve. I am trying to a really simple tracing from 0% to 100% but I am not sure why it isn't working? Shouldn't it be as simple as: TweenMax.fromTo("#graphing", 2, {drawSVG:"0%"}, {drawSVG: "100%"});
