Sunday night, I could be doing so many things other than breaking Jack's toys couldn't I? Well, I am that boring sometimes. Sorry Jack. So, the combo that caused the weirdness is CustomBounce + percentage base movement + transformOrigin in a shape element of an SVG. As you will see in the pen (at least in Chrome), the element gets moved to the 0,0 position according to the transformOrigin you define. Not something desirable if you're trying to squash an element.

Hi everyone! I'm planning on making a Christmas project which would require many elements being animated on a fullscreen illustration. So imagine 100-200+ little animations moving repeatedly on a fullscreen page, along with music running. You could think of Google's SantaTracker as an example - Website and Github. I dabbled with canvas for a bit, but animating proved to be a lot more complex than with simple SVG and Greensock. and attempted to bring in SVGs in Paper.JS as well, to merge the gap between SVGs and canvas, but I kept running into difficulty exporting SVG paths to be animated. --> If you have experience with SVG in Paper.JS, I'd love to hear about your experiences! I didn't really like canvas to start with anyway... (I'm just not familiar with it enough). So I'm thinking of sticking to pure inline SVG and Greensock animation, since I like the simplicity yet high quality vector aspect of them. The issue is I have kept hearing of SVG performance issues due to the DOM (where canvas performs much better in comparison). I have done tests with heavier illustrations imported from Illustrator, where 100+ elements are animated and looped; other than using a lot CPU, performance on desktops/laptops seemed fine (macbooks and such); there was a bit of lag on mobile devices, but subtle enough to be able to get away with it. I tried a Nexus 6P which is probably a good phone though... I ran tests on several websites (with Google's PageSpeed's tool notably). It scored between 50-60%, which isn't ideal. Since I am new to development, and know little about performance testing, I wanted to ask the Greensock community your thoughts on what I should maybe look out for and for best practices. Or if you have any advice on how to go about this. I have though of importing static components as PNGs or JPEGs instead of SVG, would that help with the performance or would it do the opposite? Think background elements for example. I have thought of using the <use> tag to duplicate existing SVG code to lighten inline SVG-load. But I have read that doing that actually is detrimental to performance. Has anyone had that experience? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Thanks!!

I have an app that allows you to save a file and reopen it. Everything works great except for when a scale to 0 has been applied to something and the user saves the file with an SVG in that state. When the file is opened the scale tween doesn't connect to the SVG when the scale settings in matrix3d start out at 0. The codepen is as simple as it gets and replicates the issue. There's only one line: TweenMax.fromTo('#gp-1',1,{scale: 0}, {scale: 1},0); It works if the style attribute starts out as: matrix3d(1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 392, 315, 0, 1) ...but not if it starts out as: matrix3d(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 392, 315, 0, 1) I'm sure I'm struggling with this because of my lack of understanding something. Any guidance from a GSAP/SVG sage would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I'm trying to get a smooth animation with MorphSVG: http://codepen.io/carlbren/pen/pEYkRg The steps should as smooth as these ones: http://codepen.io/waterfallmedia/pen/ZbOjRO http://codepen.io/GreenSock/pen/WQjRXE (see the cape animated with waveSVG which is not supported) http://codepen.io/osublake/pen/meepJE You can see a stop between the steps in my animation. Please, do you have any idea of what I could do to not feel the steps in the animation? Thanks!

Hello, My coworker made this animation prototype: http://animation.addlab.it/ledbyled/index.html However, after a good amount of analysis, it seems like chrome's MSAA rasterization is causing an heavy framerate drop. When MSAA is disabled (chrome://flags/#gpu-rasterization-msaa-sample-count set to 0), the frame rate is around 50fps, but when MSAA is enabled (as it is by default) it drops to 10fps (the exact rate depends on how big is the screen). Doing a trace on the timeline, the bottleneck seems to be on the composite layer: with MSAA it takes more than 200ms, while it's 9ms when disabled! Honestly we don't have a clue on how to solve this and clearly we can't say to our users to disable MSAA... Is there any known work around? I tried the `will-change` CSS property, but nothing changed. Thanks! PS: if you want to rerun the animation without reloading the page, just run `init()` in the console.

Hi, first of all let me say congratulations for your great job, gsap definetly changed my career by now. So... I made a codepen for you isolating one animation of our last website that do not render well on safari. Surprise! On codepen it works perfectly... I'm still writing asking for help but I will understand if you can't or do not want, due to the website has another addons like scrollmagic etc etc. I posted the codepen ( use it as reference on what we want ) and here goes the website: http://brand.uoc.edu. As you can see on Safari absolutely all goes slow and jumping. Any ideas? Thanks in advance and congrats again for the great job! PS: My apologize for the english

Hello, I made this handwriting type animation using <clipPath>ed letters and moving mask paths, done with GSAP. It renders correctly in every browser I tested, but not on Edge. Edge seems to clip every clipPath letter to a small shape. I don't know if this problem is related to GSAP, but every idea on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Guys! I have a problem with my animation. I don't know why, only when I move mouse scroll or change width of codepen window, my animation start playing. I want to create continuous animation but I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Good evening, We having some problem with Drawsvg Plugin. I try to explain what is our problem: In this case, I have a Timeline, with the three states of some button ( the labels "over", "out" and "cli" severaly). In the third state ( the last), it launch the event "click" to execute the code in the "cli" Label. But, as we could see in the developer inspector, the property stroke-dasharray has changed when the DrawSVG is doing when we don´t change this element (polyline class="st1") in anytime. In the inspector you can see this value: stroke-dasharray: 0px, 999999px; Here we put the URL of the codePen that I make like a example: http://codepen.io/stoicom/pen/rrdAJj If you should take a look, and tell me which could be the problem, or error? Thank you very much for yout support. Best Regards!! Rogelio Silván.

In an attempt to learn GSAP and other web transitioning concepts, I've decided to start mimicking random UI concepts and examples. Any feedback, advice, best practices, other ways you might have approached the concept would be greatly appreciated. This is attempt number 2.

Hey all, I have a query regarding animating along an SVG path. I have been able to get the circles animated as per the codepen demo but due to the path going in different directions, i'm struggling to figure out what I do with the arrows. Basically, the arrows are down, left and right and I was wondering if there was a way that I could change the direction of these arrows depending on where they are along the path? I just think the animation will look odd when the arrow is animating downwards but is facing right for example. The codepen demo is as far as I have got in terms of animating this. Thanks

Hi all, I'm trying to animate an SVG <line> and a <circle> which are both dashed. What I need is the dashes to be shown one-by-one (staggered, I guess ) to make the line "drawn". I've tried animating the strokeDasharray like so (where "secondStepDashedLine" is the <line> element) which didn't do anything really: tlInitial.staggerFrom(secondStepDashedLine, 1, { strokeDasharray: 0 }, 1.5); Is there any way of doing this? Thanks in advance.

I wondered if anyone can help shed some light on how I might be able to shift the starting point of an SVG path which forms the shape of a rectangle. I'm aware it's more to do with the SVG file itself, but it's well illustrated using GSAP's DrawSVG plugin (see the codepen) Ideally, the vertical rectangle would have a bottom right starting point, and the horizontal rectangle a bottom left starting point. Both currently start at the top left. I tried flipping the paths in Illustrator before exporting the SVG and various other things, but got the same results as far as these rectangles go. Also tried a few things with tools like SVGOMG, but no joy. Many thanks in advance for any help! (and apologies if this has been covered elsewhere – I couldn't find a thread concerned with this here)

Hi Greensocks, after reading tons of topics on the subject of animating svg I did not find an answer that works properly for my goal. Now I desperately need your help: Elements inside my svg are scaled to 2.8 by click. After that I need them to be centered inside the viewbox. Scaling works fine, centering does not. Do you have any suggestions? Cheers Gregor

I am using TweenMax for some animations. The animations work fine in Chrome, but Safari and Firefox both have issues with the center animation. I though GSAP removed those browser issues, so I am thinking I must be doing something wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone! I am working on a project that requires animating a lot of elements on the page. I am trying to use SVG instead of Canvas, and thought of using <g> and <use> tags to keep the SVG code lightweight. Basically, I am trying to copy paste the svg element and its animation, but placing it in a different position. However, I can't seem to animate the <use> tag (see attached Codepen). I tried adding an id="redCircle" to it too, but javascript doesn't seem to pick it up and won't animate it. Any help?

Hi All, I am trying to achieve a blinking eye effect. Ideally, I would like the eye to travel down from the top to half in the eye, this would simulate the eyelid moving down the eye to meet the other eyelid. I have tried scale with transformOrigin to achieve the effect as well as opacity 0. Opacity 0 seems to give the best effect, but the visible fade doesn't look too great. Would I need to use SVGmorph to achieve this? Can anyone point me in the right direction? My codepen attached shows the example. Thanks, Tom

Hi, Very simply, I'm looking at this pen - http://codepen.io/chrisgannon/pen/pbzEYr. I want to have a button that moves the dot to predefined point on the path and then stops. TIA

Hi there! I've tried to find a solution in this forum but I couldn't find the same problem. It makes me even more confused! I want to animate a inline SVG made of path elements only. Safari, Firefox and Chrome don't really react the same way but I could eventually fix that by applying transformOrigin or svgOrigin depending on the browser. I also had to set transform-origin:50% 50% 0px !important; BUT! Safari looks like ignoring this setting as soon as I scale a path. It makes the path to scale from the top left of the SVG element to their original position (scale 1). The GSAP version is 1.19.0 I'm struggling for more than 4h hours especially because this animation is a spinner I use on 3 different location on the website and it doesn't work properly only on one location. Does anyone has an idea? Here is the CSS : path{ fill:#fff; opacity:0; -webkit-transform-origin:50% 50% 0px !important; transform-origin:50% 50% 0px !important; } Here is the JS for one path (every path bug the same) this._elementOrigin = ( this._forceTransformOrigin ? 'transformOrigin' : 'svgOrigin'); var from = {opacity:0, scale: 0.5}; from[this._elementOrigin] = "100% 50%"; this._timelineLeft.fromTo(this._$step1L, hD, from, { opacity:1, scale: 1, force3D: true } ); Here is the SVG <svg version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="-37.4 94 670.1 653.9" xml:space="preserve"> <path class="component__icon__spinner--7L" d="M214 494.6c-20.7

Hello all, a newbie here. I looked through the docs and examples, but am still a bit unsure whether the Timeline scripts could help me out with a project I'm tasked with. The project is a rather straightforward animation created in Flash/Animate which needs to be exported as SVG. The animation has four points at which the animation would need to stop. Each 'stop point' would have a corresponding button which moves the playhead backwards or forwards, depending if the clicked button is before or after where the playhead currently is at. As you might know, scripts do not go with the SVG when exporting it from Animate and so the solution would be to apply JavaScript or some such library to handle not only the navigation, but stopping the playhead at the 'stop points' or labels. Here are my initial questions/problems: * Using the TimelineLite/Max one can sequence tweens into a single timeline, but is it possible to add a single SVG animation (exported from Animate) that can be controlled with TimelineLite/Max? * Are the 'stop points' possible to implement with, say, applying labels at certain points (e.g. in seconds)? Please let me know if something needs clarification. Thanks in advance!

I read through as much as I can find here and test with your pens by copying ma path to your example (https://greensock.com/docs/#/HTML5/GSAP/Plugins/DrawSVGPlugin/, and there my path works!), but I cannot find my own problem with this animation. The circle path fades in, but the animation is doing nothing... I am still very new to SVG and also to GSAP, but I did read all the docs already... but I am still in the dark somehow... any hint would be most welcome! Thank you in advance! Best regards, Robert

Hi, I saw a tutorial where the tutor animates elements from inside a mask definition to make his desired effects, so I thought that I could use that technique to make a similar animation for a different effect, but somehow it doesn't work for me. In my picture there is a circle that is defined inside the mask definition and it is meant to be animated but it doesn't move, however, if the circle is outside of the mask tags it can be animated. So the question is that is there a way to animate that circle defined inside the mask and if it is possible, what do I need to do to make it work?

Good morning people, Could somebody explain why the 'strokeDashoffset' in the following pen will not animate? http://codepen.io/Joostan-33/pen/kkYEpk Inspecting the element in the DOM and manually manipulating the 'stroke-dashoffet' i can easily animate property. images attached. Thanks

How to ensure that the snake-like animation in https://codepen.io/TobiReif/pen/b7809c58663ddac3572f5594ffc4f5fe/ is even? Each column of dots should move up with ease-in-and-ease-out (eg sine) and should move back in the same way: slow upwards, fast upwards, slow upwards, then slow downwards, fast downwards, slow downwards; loop. The current animation is roughly what I want, but it seems to be faster at the top and slower at the bottom. Each column of dots seems to jump up and down, resting at the bottom only. I had no luck using repeatDelay, and I think a clean solution would not involve repeatDelay. Instead I need something like "sineAnimationUp;reverse;loop" or simply "sineWaveAnimation" == forth and back exactly like a sine wave.
