Hello GSAP community, I am trying to play 2 timelines one after the other. when timeline 1 finishes, immediately play timeline 2. After lots of trying and reading the forum, I still haven't found a solution yet. My problem is when I get some panels open and I click on the menu button, I want the open panels to slide back then immediately animating all the panel to go offscreen So far I need to click twice on the menu button for this to happen I am using a master timeline, as i understand is the way to do such things. what do I do wrong in the master timeline? why are the timelines not chaining? Sorry the code is a bit messy but I’ll work on refactoring soon, however, any tips will be welcome Thanks a lot

Hi, I've hit an interesting problem using delayedCall/killDelayedCall I've got a number of classes which, typically should run consecutively, but, can run concurrently. The classes are loading a video, and then when this fires its complete event, a delayedCall is used to activate the next part (usually loading an associated MP3). But, as the class/video can be skipped and should that happen I won't wont the next part to be activated, I use killDelayedCall to stop it. What I've found is that not only will the delayed call be stopped from the first class, but from any other that are running that delayedCall. I've not gone through the GSAP source, but, I expect that killDelayedCall is removing all references because it's using the name of the function rather than some unique reference. So, is there a way to avoid this? (I have a fix, it's just a bit ugly.) <edit> I just checked and I'm using v1.19 - not sure if upgrading to v1.2 would help? </edit>

Hi everybody! I am completely new to GSAP. First of all I´d like to notice that I really have a hard time to get into this stuff. The documentation isn't that good for a beginner. I neither don't know what kind of plugins or other 3rd party java stuff is needed to use the gsap plugins, nor I really do not get it how to call up funtion to do something with gsap. So, how did I get here? I already programmed a little website for a geocache listing, but on mobile devices the site is kind of slow. Somebody told me to "do the trick" with gsap because it is much faster than jquery. My goal is to change the colors of pictures, borders and text when a checkbox is clicked. Here you can see what I mean: My example website I removed the images (actual code not in the example page) and now want to draw one corner image in 4 canvas. Here is what I got so far. <script> window.onload = function() { var canvas = document.getElementsByClassName("edge_can"); // I gave the canvas a class named "edge_can" / not on the example page! var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d"); var img = new Image(); img.src = "https://www.tissi-solutions.de/caches/matrix/edge.jpg"; ctx.drawImage(img,0,0,100,100); }; </script> Do the canvas need all one "id" or can I use a class to draw 1 picture in multiple canvas? How do I do that? Do I really need canvas for this or can I manipulate the colors by just calling a gsap funtion? Which plugins are needed to change all mentioned colors? Do I need PixiJS for the Pixi plugin? Am I on a right approach or do you think that the speed won´t improve by changing to gsap? Any suggestions are welcomed! Thanks in advance! Tissi

I've created an animated landing page for my portfolio using GSAP and ScrollMagic.js, but it's pretty resource intensive and I know my code isn't the most efficient. How can I modify the code to create a smoother and more robust animation? And how can my JavaScript be condensed and more efficiently written to avoid repetition? function pageScroll(e) { var clicked = e.currentTarget.id; if (clicked == "navWelcome") { TweenMax.to($('#mainNav'), 0.4, {x:windowWidth}); TweenMax.to(window, 0.8, {scrollTo:{y:"header"}, delay:0.3}); }else if (clicked == "arrow") { TweenMax.to(window, 3.5, {scrollTo:{y:"#aboutMeFull"}}); }else if (clicked == "navAbout") { TweenMax.to($('#mainNav'), 0.4, {x:windowWidth}); TweenMax.to(window, 0.8, {scrollTo:{y:"#aboutMeFull"}, delay:0.3}); }else if (clicked == "navServices") { TweenMax.to($('#mainNav'), 0.4, {x:windowWidth}); TweenMax.to(window, 0.8, {scrollTo:{y:"#servicesConBg"}, delay:0.4}); }else if (clicked == "navPortfolio") { TweenMax.to($('#mainNav'), 0.4, {x:windowWidth}); TweenMax.to(window, 0.8, {scrollTo:{y:"#portfolio"}, delay:0.3}); }else if (clicked == "portfolioBut") { TweenMax.to(window, 0.8, {scrollTo:{y:"#portfolio"}}); }else if (clicked == "navContact") { TweenMax.to($('#mainNav'), 0.4, {x:windowWidth}); TweenMax.to(window, 0.8, {scrollTo:{y:"#contact"}, delay:0.3}); } } for (var i=0; i<navBut.length; i++) { navBut[i].addEventListener('click', pageScroll, false); } for (var i=0; i<navItem.length; i++) { navItem[i].addEventListener('click', pageScroll, false); } document.querySelector('#arrow').addEventListener('click', pageScroll, false); //Landing Page $(function() { var xTo = 1.15*window.innerWidth; var yTo = 0.5*window.innerHeight; var rocketTween = new TimelineMax().add([ TweenMax.from("#parallaxContainer #bg", 1, {backgroundPosition:"0 100%", ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.from("#parallaxContainer #starsSmall", 1, {backgroundPosition:"0 12%", ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.from("#parallaxContainer #starsLarge", 1, {backgroundPosition:"0 6%", ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.to("#parallaxContainer #rocket", 1, {y:0, ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.to("#parallaxContainer #cloudsFront", 1, {y:0, ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.to("#parallaxContainer #cloudsBack", 1, {y:0, ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.to("#parallaxContainer #comet", 0.5, {x:-xTo, y:yTo, delay:0.5, ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.to("#parallaxContainer #logo", 0.8, {opacity:0, ease: Linear.easeNone}), TweenMax.to("#parallaxContainer #arrow", 0.07, {opacity:0}) ]);

I created this demo which shows a slider with a preloader. The GSAP slider is completely out of sink and doesn't slide on time. How can I load the images and the slider together? It would be nice to have this function working together nicely. Also the fading on the images are a bit glitchy . I might have used to many alphas.

Has anyone worked with a library for scroll-based callback functions to use with GSAP in ReactJS? I've been working with a small library but I'm looking for a more robust solution and don't have the time to write my own. I'd rather not use CSS animations with popular libraries like AOS. The goal is to find a library that fires a callback function (which I would use to fire an animation function) when an element reaches a certain offset, exits/enters viewport.

I am trying to reveal the black background only after the two red and blue canvases have completed the animation. But as you can see there is "leak" and the black ground is visible during the rotation. Also I'm learning to control overflow and have found this link https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8837050/allow-specific-tag-to-override-overflowhidden , but theres something I'm doing wrong . Please Help.

I'm trying to animate all this element on the svg with a bit of sense, so the feet look like the walking:-) I'd like to achieve : - path { they should animate with delay, so I could have the feeling that they are walking. } - line {it's a stroke which should animate from 0 to 100%.} - polygon (are two arrow that should fade.) I hope it's something that you guys could quickly fix.

Hi all, I am very new to hand coding and using GSAP and have just got the hang of the basic principles of the tweens and timelines. My problem is I would like to animate a half background during the timeline and after its completed add a mouseenter that animates the same background to the full height. The issue is if the mouse enters before it gets to the timeline it animates the background in, it breaks the mouseenter and does not behave as it should. To replicate check the codepen. Mouseenter before the black half background animates in and it will complete the whole mouseenter function. To see the desired result. Refresh the codepen and do not mouseenter until the black half background animates in. Then mouseenter. Is there a way I can a. add the mouseenter mouseleave functions after a certain point in a timeline? b. use a check else if statement to see if mouse has already entered and still has not left play the rest of the mouseenter animation ? Sorry this is my first post so hope this information and the pen makes sense. Thanks for any advice or help in advance, Chris

Hello everybody I am trying to convert, refactor a jQuery animation to pure GSAP. Using gsap.jquery gave several errors. Unlike in the guide written I found one always requires jquery still. I want to convert jquery.animate() to GSAP function. What links and resources are there to help me with converting Jquery to pure GSAP?

Hi, This is broad question. How can I create something like the pen i mentioned through GSAP. (A detailed explanation would be really helpful as I'm a noob) Thank you in advance.

Hi, How do I animate this ball up and down smoothly. I'm using fromTo but i don't know where to put "repeat:-1"

hey guys, i'm new to GSAP & I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong here. the desired effect is a fade in when the menu opens & a fade out when it closes, but for some reason i can't get the fade out part to work. here is a link to my codepen. i suspect i'm making a pretty dumb mistake. here's my js: var root = document.documentElement; var body = document.body; var pages = document.querySelectorAll(".page"); var tiles = document.querySelectorAll(".tile"); for (var i = 0; i < tiles.length; i++) { addListeners(tiles[i], pages[i]); } function addListeners(tile, page, menu) { tile.addEventListener("click", function() { animateHero(tile, page); }); page.addEventListener("click", function() { animateHero(page, tile); }); } function animateHero(fromHero, toHero) { var clone = fromHero.cloneNode(true); var from = calculatePosition(fromHero); var to = calculatePosition(toHero); TweenLite.set([fromHero, toHero], { visibility: "hidden" }); TweenLite.set(clone, { position: "absolute", margin: 0 }); TweenLite.to('.k-nav-list li', 0.6, {opacity: 0}); body.appendChild(clone); var style = { x: to.left - from.left, y: to.top - from.top, width: to.width, height: to.height, autoRound: false, ease: Power1.easeOut, onComplete: onComplete }; TweenLite.set(clone, from); TweenLite.to(clone, 0.3, style) function onComplete() { TweenLite.set(toHero, { visibility: "visible" }); body.removeChild(clone); TweenLite.to('.k-nav-list li', 0.6, {opacity: 1}); } } function calculatePosition(element) { var rect = element.getBoundingClientRect(); var scrollTop = window.pageYOffset || root.scrollTop || body.scrollTop || 0; var scrollLeft = window.pageXOffset || root.scrollLeft || body.scrollLeft || 0; var clientTop = root.clientTop || body.clientTop || 0; var clientLeft = root.clientLeft || body.clientLeft || 0; return { top: Math.round(rect.top + scrollTop - clientTop), left: Math.round(rect.left + scrollLeft - clientLeft), height: rect.height, width: rect.width, }; } the part that is actually changing the opacity for the element i want is TweenLite.to('.k-nav-list li', 0.6, {opacity: 0}); and TweenLite.to('.k-nav-list li', 0.6, {opacity: 1}); but obviously i'm misunderstanding what's going on here. any help is greatly appreciated.

I want the car to move after the bicycle has reached its end. (How to trigger a 2nd scene only after the 1st scene is completed ) Thank you in advance

I'm working on something like a full screen sections with a big menu that scrolls to left/right depending on the section but I can't get it right. Basically, when the first section ends I want the menu to translate to left and when I scroll up I want it to translate back to right. How can I achieve this? It's something like this http://en.leningrad.io/

Hey there, I'm posting as I received some great advice with my animation before. The goal is to have the car follow the route, and it seems to work perfectly on mobile. The pertinent lines of code are below, and shown in action in the codepen .set("#Car", {transformOrigin:"50% 50%", xPercent:-50, yPercent:-50}) .to("#Car", 7, {bezier:{values:MorphSVGPlugin.pathDataToBezier("#CarPath", {align:"#Car"}), type:"cubic", autoRotate:90,},ease:Linear.easeNone}) However on chrome mobile the linked codepen should produce the car doing doughnuts on the grass area offroad. I'm wondering if anyone can help me identify the code causing it. Hopefully you can replicate the issue as a couple of friends couldn't reproduce in on their devices. Thanks for taking your time to read my post. -Tom.

Hi, I tried create similar animation in right top which you can see in the picture from this website ( https://waaark.com/ ). In CodePen is my animation. Their animation start from bottom to top but my from all sides to middle. Thank you for your advice.

Hi there! I am making a png spritesheet animation. I have an animation existing of 7 frames which I want to animate back-and-forth. So: from frame 1 to frame 7 back to frame 1 again and back. Example: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,2,3 etc. I tried reversing with "yoyo:true" but i cant quite get a seamless experience as you can see from the Codepen. The animation goes back to frame 1 before getting into yoyo. I would love some advice from you. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi, I have a text slider than has two alternate text slides animating in and out within a container, and this code is animated with GSAP (Codepen link provided). I want it to trigger with a forEach function, because I have a couple of instances of this same effect on a page. So I set up a basic forEach function that will trigger the animation as it scrolls into view, but when I use this method to invoke the sliders() animation function, I get all sorts of unexpected behaviour. In my if/else statement when i just do a basic test line (i.e. item.style.background = "green";) it works, but when add put the sliders() function call in it all goes a bit haywire. Does anyone know what is happening? Or what the best solution would be? P.S if you want to see the intended behaviour of the animation, if you comment out the forEach section and re-comment in the slider() function call you'll see what the animation is meant to look like. P.P.S Any help would be hugely appreciated. function sliders () { var timerbar = document.querySelectorAll(".timerbar"); var tl1 = new TimelineMax({repeat: -1}); tl1 .from(timerbar, 2, {scaleX: 0, ease:Power0.easeNone}) .staggerTo(".js-stagger-1", .5, {y: -30, opacity: 0}, .2) .staggerTo(".js-stagger-2", .5, {y:0, opacity: 1}, .2) .to(timerbar, 0, {scaleX: 0}) .to(timerbar, 2, {scaleX: 1, ease:Power0.easeNone}) .staggerTo(".js-stagger-2", .5, {y: -30, opacity: 0}, .2) .to(".js-stagger-1", 0, {y:30, opacity: 0}) .staggerTo(".js-stagger-1", .5, {y:0, opacity: 1}, .2); } // sliders(); // FOREACH TRIGGER ON TEXT SLIDES var triggerBox = document.querySelectorAll('.one-col.js-scroll-trigger'); function scrollTrigger() { triggerBox.forEach(function(item){ var boxPosition = item.getBoundingClientRect().top; var boxPositionPercent = (boxPosition / window.innerHeight) * 100; if (boxPositionPercent <= 100) { // 100% equals bottom of viewport sliders(); } else { // somehow kill the function } }); } window.addEventListener("scroll", scrollTrigger);

Hi guys, I want to know if its possible to achieve animation like this with morphSVG? (see the link below) https://giphy.com/gifs/3o6fJ1O72KpIh4YRLa. Im trying to wrap my head around how to achieve this and I liked to know how you guys would approach an effect like this.

Hi guys been trying to make an animation for work where there is an image that goes from left to right with a clipping path to make the image have some sort of cut on the top. My problem is that it doesn't work on safari but somehow works on every other browser even firefox.

Hello guys. My Draggable object: Draggable.create(document.getElementById('el'), { minimumMovement: 50, type: 'y', onDragStart: function() { this.minimumMovement = 1; this.type = 'x,y'; }, onDragEnd: function() { this.minimumMovement = 50; this.type = 'y'; } }); I have default minimumMovement and type properties. When Drag starts I want to change this properties and when drag ends I want to set this properties to the default values. But It doesn't works. Can you help?

RotationY not working in IE but run good in chrome . i can Door close

Hey everyone, thanks in advance for your time. I've searched the forums for common solutions, but i'm a bit too new to JS to translate the more complicated ones into my simple task. I'm currently trying to get the animation in the provided codepen to work with the included mouseover feature correctly. If you try and mouseover while the animation runs, you'll see that the text elements fail to tween in by the time you mouseleave. I've searched the forums for solutions, but i'm still pretty new to JS so i'm rather dense as to how to use the isActive() function, which I assume would need to be used to prevent the mouseover working until all the intro elements have tweened in. To replicate this, try to mouseover straight away on the provided codepen, and you'll see that the text fails to appear from the intro animation. I've annotated the codepen, but here's the mouseover part. var wwdtransition = new TimelineMax({paused:true}); wwdtransition.to ('.screenobject',0.5,{y:300, autoAlpha:0}) .to('#playbutton', .3, {autoAlpha:1},"-=.2"); ; //mouseover functions $(document).on("mouseenter", ".col-md-12", function() { wwdtransition.play(); }).on("mouseleave", ".col-md-12", function(){ wwdtransition.reverse(); }); Thanks again for your time, i'm really enjoying using GSAP, and with a solution to this, I imagine I can just copy + paste it to replicate the effect in future work.
