Get all instances of TimelineMax (or any other object? :O)

[katerlouis]

JS isn't my biggest strength, so maybe this is trivial–

 

I need this in order to pause every timeline created.

Or to reset all of them.

 

Thanks!

I'd say it depends on how you have created them.

 

However if you want to control the tweens of a particular object (TimelineMax/Lite or TweenMax/Lite) you can use .getTweensof(). 

 

Or if you want to indiscriminately pause or reset (or whatever else) ALL Tweens/Timeline objects you can use .exportRoot().

For others who come across this thread, you can get all the tweens and timelines attached to the globalTimeline like so:

gsap.globalTimeline.getChildren()

So if you wanted to do something like jump to the end of their animations (i.e. skip all animation) you could do something like:

gsap.globalTimeline.getChildren().forEach(child => child.totalProgress(1).pause());
