I have a very simple animation. Hover over the left side and the dart shifts left. Hover over right and it shifts to the right. Upon click, the dart tweens to center of dart board. Pretty simple stuff. The issue I have is that after the dart tweens to the center of dart board is you mouseOff or mouseLeave the dart shifts back to the center position. I thought that setting the buttons visibility to hidden would work but it doesnt. Ive tried killing tweens. Im kind of stuck.

Figured it out by find ing this link in the forums:

 

The solution is adding this to the onclick function:

  buttonLeft.onmouseout = null;
  buttonLeft.onmouseleave = null;

GSAP is going to use this function as the selector engine.

function $(id){return document.getElementById(id);}

 

To prevent GSAP from using that function, you can set the selector back to querySelectorAll.

TweenLite.selector = document.querySelectorAll.bind(document);

 

It's also better to use addEventListener and removeEventListener. See how I remove the listeners in the onClick function.
