How can I get a breakdown of a timeline once it's been created?

[Andrew Swift]

I have a program that creates timelines programatically.

 

I'm looking for a way to list the contents of a timeline, the way one would list the key/value pairs of a dictionary (for example).

 

I've spent a lot of time searching for an answer, but I've found nothing.

 

Is there an existing command that returns the contents of a timeline in some format?

Hey there, 

 

would this maybe be what you're after -

 

https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline/getChildren()

 

or...

https://greensock.com/docs/v3/GSAP/Timeline/getTweensOf()

 

Hope this helps!

Yes, @Andrew Swift, I bet you're looking for getChildren() but it kinda depends on what exactly you're looking for in terms of "list the contents of a timeline". I mean ultimately it boils down to tweens and each of those have targets and you could loop over the properties of the vars object on each tween. You should be able to get whatever data you need with the methods/properties exposed. Check out the docs for details.
