Storyline experiment - Smooth dynamic animations. Thoughts? How would you use it? (Now with .Story files)
Hey everyone - I started to experiment with some animations in Storyline that are a bit more dynamic and have a smoother motion.
You can see it in action here!
Thoughts? How would you use this?
I wanted the animations to have a nice ease from one state to another. I used a simple javascript tween/ease class to do this.
I also rigged this up to an animation I created using states so I could animated to different points in the animation. I will post this when it is ready to show another use.
Thanks to Nejc Žorga Dulmin for giving me the sliding menu background idea.

Nice job - if you don't mind sharing the source files that would be great.

Thanks! And I will be sharing it soon. I am cleaning it up a bit so it is easier to use.

This is awesome! I can't wait to see how it was implemented. I've used some Greensock in Animate, but it'll be great to be able to modify the native animations, as well.

Here are two of the examples which you can download. They are free downloads right now:

I tried to clean up the JavaScript and comment it. I separated the examples because I believe it will be easier to pull apart and use as you need.

Hey David. Is this still offered for free? I'm a little late to the game, but I'm hoping it is. =)
Thanks for popping back in to share David :)

You bet, Leslie. I will get the third example on soon... doing a little more with it. Let me know if there are any JavaScript questions.
Hi Mike,
I'm not sure if David is still subscribed here, as the post is a bit older - but you could always use the "contact me" button on a ELH users' profile to reach out to them directly!
Best of luck with your project!

Never mind just found it in the comments :)
Glad you found it Curtis :) Thanks for the update.

Actually that link makes you sign up the elearning locker that you can never actually log in to.

Curtis, I did have to fix that a while back. Sorry for the infinite looping login!
