Coordinates, scale and rotation

[NicolasJ 2 Likes (Newbie)]

Hello, 

 

My question with this example : 

See the Pen umFdy by NicolasJ (@NicolasJ) on CodePen

 

How to ensure that when "Center" is unchecked and click on the button "DO IT 2" the red block is positioned correctly. That is to say that the two upper corners are aligned and the result is displayed [t = 0 | b = 290 | l = 0 | r = 50] and not [55 t = | b = 235 | s = 55 | r = 5] 

 

How to ensure that when "Center" is checked and click on the "DO IT 3" button the red block is centered on the gray block?

 

In summary, my question is how to properly calculate the sets of coordinates which I want to go in both cases (centered checked and unchecked) and keeping transformOrigin:"50% 50%".

 

Hoping to be sufficiently clear

 

Thanks

Based on your example, and what I think you're trying to do, I would change the scale on your doIt3, and doIt4 functions to this

 

function doIt3() {
        init();
        centerX = (useCenter ? (containerW - blocW * scale/2) / 2 : 0);
        centerY = (useCenter ? (containerH - blocH * scale/2) / 2 : 0);
        TweenLite.to(bloc, 1, {rotation:0,  x:centerX, y:centerY, scale:scale, transformOrigin:"50% 50%", onComplete:function() {logResult()}});
    }

Hopefully that helps you get closer to what you're trying to do.

Thanks, I update the pen .. 

 

but this solution does not work if you try another scale value, for example 3

Pen updated.

I think that the solustion for DoIt3 is 

centerX = (useCenter ? (containerW - blocW * scale) / 2 -(blocW - blocW*scale)/2: -(blocW - blocW*scale)/2);
centerY = (useCenter ? (containerH - blocH * scale) / 2 -(blocH - blocH*scale)/2: -(blocH - blocH*scale)/2);

Due to the fact that the scale is from the center of the object
