Yes, I need to animate specific parts of the svg. Here is the the actual use case https://codepen.io/efl32/pen/gOpXmqb
The svg needs to align with a separate background image which is why im trying to use the svg as a background image also
I am using an inline SVG as a background image which is converted for css using this: https://codepen.io/elliz/pen/ygvgay
The SVG still has its id in the css background image, so I'm unsure as to why I'm unable to animate it using gsap.
