(Dumb Question Incoming) How do I make TweenLite static?

[Burdock 0 Likes (Newbie)]

I'm trying to make some animations based on mouse location and scroll ~ but the Tweenlite *Autoplays* (aka finishes the animation instead of staying on that frame).

So how do I make Tweenlite static so I can manually change frames it via Tweenlite.progress() ? I am having a little trouble finding it in the documentation.

 

Thanks, Daniel

If you're just asking how to make a tween not auto-play, there are two ways:

//just set paused:true in the vars:
var t = TweenLite.to(e, 1, {x:100, paused:true});

//or pause() it right away:
var t = TweenLite.to(...);
t.pause();

The same goes for TimelineLite or TimelineMax instances. You get total control of pretty much every aspect of your animations

 

Does that answer your question?

Yep, it does.... This is why you don't code at 3:00am

Ha ha - yeah, I totally hear you on that one. My brain starts to get fuzzy around 1am.

 

Go get some sleep. You'll be much more productive tomorrow.

Thanks man! Works like a charm now ~ Time to ditch my old JSql animation libraries, this seems to cut runtime by a good 20%~  

 

Edit: Ok.., ok yeah sleep... Im just happy to get a dynamic parallax templet working that does not cause servers to burst into flames XD
