Animate The Clip: Rect Property?
I want to animate the css property clip: rect with jQuery's .animate() but can't find if this is possible anywhere. Have tried: $('.img1').animate({ clip: 'rect(1px, 945px, 49
Solution 1:
Anything is possible, but there probably are easier ways to do what you want without using clip
, but if you use jQuery animate's fx.step function, you can animate anything, but you need to do some calculations to figure out values and stuff, but it goes something like this:
$(".img1").animate({
fontSize: 100//some unimportant CSS to animate so we get some values
},
{
step: function(now, fx) { //now is the animated value from initial css value
$(this).css('clip', 'rect(0px, '+now+'px, '+now+'px, 0px)')
}
}, 10000);

Since this is a popular question and was the top of Google search results when I looked for this today, here is a jQuery plugin that works with the clip:
property and .animate()
natively.

To control duration, add duration: 3000, before the step attribute. So, the code would state:
$('#A').on('click', function() {
$(".img1").animate({
fontSize: 1
},
{
duration:3000,
step: function(now, fx) {
$(this).css('clip', 'rect(0px, '+(now+30)+'px, '+(now+30)+'px, 0px)')
}
}, 1000);
});
You have to play around with exactly how you want the animation to run, but this should help.
