TweenLight - Using "-=50px" as a value for left property

[Lucir]

Hi, everyone

I'm new here and also new to Geensock. I'm trying to learn TweenLight and SplitText. I was trying to create a text that displays a fraction with a horizontal bar. My question relates to TweenLight using values like "+=50" or "-=50" to move an array of words to the right. I used the following statement:

 

var i;

 for(i = 7; i <= 12; i++){

        TweenLight.to(wordsA, 1, {left:"-=50px"});

        

    }

 

I used the code pen http://codepen.io/anon/pen/zxbzZB

 

If its not possible to use "-=50px",  how would I retrieve the current position(left) of the element?

Hi Lucir  , Welcome to the GreenSock forums .

 

pls try use " TweenLite " instead of  " TweenLight " // TweenLight is wrong syntax ! ...

Thank you, so much Diaco, I'm so embarrassed. Please forgive me. I can go for days making mistakes like these and never notice them. My problem is solved.
