I have two DIV's of different widths on top of each other. The top DIV displayDIV is wider than the bottom DIV captureDIV.
In the displayDIV I'm drawing a dot who's X position is proportionate to the mouse position within captureDIV.
As you move the mouse in captureDIV the dot moves proportionately in DisplayDIV.
It makes much more sense if you look at this fiddle
My code is as follows...
let capture = document.getElementById('captureDIV');
let display = document.getElementById('displayDIV');
let circle = document.getElementById('circle');
capture.addEventListener('mousemove', handleMouseMove);
function handleMouseMove(event) {
const captureRect = capture.getBoundingClientRect();
const captureWidth = captureRect.right - captureRect.left;
const relativeX = event.x - captureRect.left;
let percent = (relativeX / captureWidth) * 100;
let roundedPercent = parseFloat(Math.round(percent * 100) / 100).toFixed(2);
moveDotTo(roundedPercent);
}
function moveDotTo(percentage) {
const displayRect = display.getBoundingClientRect();
const displayWidth = displayRect.right - displayRect.left;
const circleX = displayRect.left + displayWidth * (percentage / 100);
const circleY = displayRect.top + (displayRect.height / 2);
const style = `top:${circleY}px;left:${circleX}px;`;
circle.setAttribute('style', style);
}
I also have a number of buttons that can set the position of the dot within DisplayDIV such as...
let move20 = document.getElementById('move20');
move20.addEventListener('click', function(event) {
moveDotTo(20);
});
Using Vanilla JS not CSS tricks, how can I create a function to animate (rather than move) the dot from its existing position to the new position.
function animateDotTo(percentage) {
// clever code here
}
I need to be able to call the animateDotTo(percentage) function from either a button or from the mousemove event handler.
The dot should always animate to its new position regardless of how the move is triggered. For instance if the mouse is moved out of the left side of the captureDIV round the bottom and then into the right side of the captureDIV the dot should animate across the DisplayDIV not jump as it does now. Equally pressing one of the move to x% buttons should animate the dot from its current position to the new one.
If you are drawing a circle and moving it around, I would suggest drawing to a <canvas> element instead of moving a <div> by setting its top and left properties. Even using transform: translate(x, y) might be better.
In order to smoothly transition your dot from one location to another, using JavaScript, you will want:
The dot's current position as x and y coordinates,
The dot's target position as x and y coordinates, and
The speed at which the dot moves as a scalar.
Updating the current position is done at every animation frame with window.requestAnimationFrame. With these in hand, and a way of applying the resulting calculated position to the dot, you can use a method like this one: How to move an object using X and Y coordinates in JavaScript to move your dot (the example moves a canvas, but if you know the x and y, then you can set them to top and bottom).
Answering my own question, with thanks to Billy Brown for pointing me in the right direction. Using window.requestAnimationFrame is the way to go.
var currentPercentage;
var startPercentage;
var targetPercentage;
function animateDotTo(percentage) {
targetPercentage = percentage;
startPercentage = currentPercentage;
window.requestAnimationFrame(step);
}
function step(timestamp) {
var fps = 7;
var maxStep = 30;
var distStartToTarget = Math.abs(startPercentage - targetPercentage);
var stepSize = Math.min(distStartToTarget / fps, maxStep);
if (targetPercentage < startPercentage) {
currentPercentage -= stepSize,0;
if (currentPercentage > targetPercentage) {
window.requestAnimationFrame(step);
}
} else if (targetPercentage > startPercentage) {
currentPercentage += stepSize,100;
if (currentPercentage < targetPercentage) {
window.requestAnimationFrame(step);
}
} else {
return;
}
if (currentPercentage > 100 ) { currentPercentage = 100; }
if (currentPercentage < 0 ) { currentPercentage = 0; }
moveDotTo(currentPercentage);
}
Updated fiddle
A simple trick in css transition will fix this.
Of course. You don't want it to animate when you're actually moving the mouse. So what I did is that I separate the transition css property on another class and then remove that class on mouse move, re-attaching it when we click the move buttons.
CSS
#circle {
position: absolute;
left: -100px;
top: -100px;
width: 10px;
height: 10px;
border-radius: 50%;
background-color: #000;
transition: none;
}
#circle.animate{
transition: 500ms ease;
}
JS
move20.addEventListener('click', function(event) {
moveDotTo(20); animateDotTo();
});
move60.addEventListener('click', function(event) {
moveDotTo(60);animateDotTo();
});
move80.addEventListener('click', function(event) {
moveDotTo(80);animateDotTo();
});
function moveDotTo(percentage) {
circle.classList.remove("animate");
const displayRect = display.getBoundingClientRect();
const displayWidth = displayRect.right - displayRect.left;
const circleX = displayRect.left + displayWidth * (percentage / 100);
const circleY = displayRect.top + (displayRect.height / 2);
const style = `top:${circleY}px;left:${circleX}px;`;
circle.setAttribute('style', style);
}
function animateDotTo(percentage) {
circle.classList.add("animate");
}
http://jsfiddle.net/8pm2grjd/
If you want it to animate even if you're triggering the movement using mousemove, you can disregard the class approach and just slap the transition property on the css. But this will simulate the annoying mouse delay effect similar to input delay on video games due to V-Sync.

I am making an old-RPG game on HTML, and I want to make a Function on Javascript
that makes the div of the player get lower than the obstacle, and when the top get higher than the obstacle, the z-index of the player go higher than the obstacle:
var top = parseInt($("#player").css("top"));
var hei = $("#player").height();
var total = top + hei;
var obTop = parseInt($("#obstacle").css("top"));
var obHei = $("#obstacle").height();
var obTotal = obHei + obTop;
if (total < obTotal) {
player.style.zIndex = 1;
$("#obstacle").css('z-index', 2);
} else {
player.style.zIndex = 2;
$("#obstacle").css('z-index', 1);
}
When top's player is higher than the obstacle (Fire)
When top is Lower
You need to compare the Y positions of the objects in question. In this case, When the fire y is lower then the player y, You want to have the player have a higher Z-index than the fire. And Vice Versa, Where when the fire y is higher than the player y, you want the fire to have a higher Z-index than the fire. You could do something like this like this:
//Define player y and fire y
player.style.zIndex = 1;
$("obstacle").css("z-index", 1);
if (playery > firey){
player.style.zIndex = 2;
} else {
$("obstacle").css("z-index", 2);
}
This hasnt been tested as there Is not a runnable example given.
So I have been trying endlessly to try and do something similar too what this site is doing (http://whois.domaintools.com/). I'm trying to get a webpage, so wherever the mouse moves over the webpage, that kind of effect follows it (I'm sorry I don't know what I would call the effect).
I've read how to ask questions on here, but I don't know what too look for so it's difficult for me to attempt this. So far this link (http://p5js.org/learn/demos/Hello_P5_Drawing.php) I've used the code from this and played around with it but i'm just puzzled as too how I would go about doing this.
Thanks for any help, I've been banging my head against a brick wall for a good couple of days now.
This seems to be some kind of particle system. I would start the following way: First create a class for a particle, it should have a random x and y coordinate, and it should change it's postion periodically to a random new postion. Then create a lot of instances of the particle and distribute them over the page.
http://jsfiddle.net/aggoh0s1/3/
/* each particle will move in a 100px100px square */
var gutterWidth = 100;
/* class definition */
var Particle = function(x, y) {
var t = this;
t.x = x;
t.y = y;
t.elem = $('<div class="particle" />');
t.elem.css({ left: x+"px", top: y+"px"});
$('body').append(t.elem);
/* create a new position every 500-1000 milliseconds */
var milliSecs = 500 + Math.random() * 500;
t.ptinterval = setInterval(function() {
var dx = Math.round(Math.random() * gutterWidth);
var dy = Math.round(Math.random() * gutterWidth);
t.elem.animate({left: (t.x + dx)+"px", top: (t.y + dy) + "px"}, 600);
}, milliSecs);
};
/* create a 1000px1000px area where particles are placed each 100px */
var particles = [];
var newParticle;
for(var x = 0; x < 1000; x = x + gutterWidth) {
for(var y = 0; y < 1000; y = y + gutterWidth) {
newParticle = new Particle(x,y);
particles.push(newParticle);
}
}
CSS:
.particle {
width: 2px;
height: 2px;
background-color: black;
position: absolute;
}
Using this logic, you could also use a canvas to display the particles instead of a html div like it is done on whois.domaintools.com. The next step should be to connect the particles with lines to each other, and after that some code should hide all particles that are some distance away from the mouse position.
I've developed the following solution for the effect which you are referring. This is done using jQuery using the event mousemove(). Bind this event to your body where the content is.
Method :
Create an element with the following css on your body. You can create the element onthefly using jQuery as well.
<div class='hover'></div>
CSS
.hover{
position:absolute;
width:100px;
height:100px;
background-color:#fff;
}
The add the following code to your page.
$('body').mousemove(function(event){
$('.hover').css({
'top' : event.pageY,
'left': event.pageX
})
});
The above code will bind an event to your mouse move and I change the element position according to the mouse coordinates.
This fiddle shows a running example
I've given you the basic idea of the solution! You will have to medle with the css and jquery to add the looks and feels of the effect which you refer to.
See the simple example
<img id="imgMove" src="Images/img1.jpg" height="100" width="100" style="position: absolute;" />
JQuery
$(document).ready(function () {
$(document).mousemove(function (e) {
$("#imgMove").css({ "top": e.pageY - 50, "left": e.pageX - 50 }); // e.pageX - Half of Image height, width
})
})
I have been working on a JS project where a sun goes around an image in a circle, and based on its position a higher index div will change opacity to make it darker or lighter. My problem is; while at one point the Sun moved in a circle, it no longer does. I have tried many things to fix this, but to no avail. My documented code is as follows:
<style>
sun{
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
}
dark-light{
z-index: 2;
}
</style>
CSS:^ JS:v
<script>
move();
//calls move
function move(){
//set rot
var rot = 180;
var pictureToDisplay = prompt('Please insert link to picture to display','URL Necessary to function properly, but not required. Press enter to continue.');
//asks user to insert picture link for STATIONARY picture
var img = document.getElementById('img');
if (pictureToDisplay == 'URL Necessary to function properly, but not required. Press enter to continue.'){
}else{
img.src = pictureToDisplay;
}
//Sets stationary picture
window.setInterval( function() {
//Repeats every 75 milliseconds forever.
var obj = document.getElementById('sun');
// obj. is equal to id sun
var top = (Math.sin(rot)*500)+500;
var left = (Math.cos(rot)*500)+500;
//uses var rot, sine, and cosine to determine moving sun position
var toppx = top + 'px';
var leftpx = left + 'px';
//adds the px after those values
obj.style.top = toppx;
obj.style.left = leftpx;
//attempts to set position of obj (id sun)
var darkToLight = -0.5+(top/500);
//determines opacity of div using var top
//document.write(rot+' = rot : ');
var lightDiv = document.getElementById('dark-light');
// same as var obj, but with the div
lightDiv.style.opacity = darkToLight;
//sets lightDiv to opacity
//document.write(toppx,' ,',leftpx,' : ');
rot = (rot+0.01) % 360;
//moves rot up by 0.01, modulate 360
}, 75);
//back to top of setInterval
}
</script>
P.S. I know no JQuery.
Edit: The position of all is absolute, 0,0 is the top left corner of the page. I made sure not to deal with negatives. The sun should be absolute to the page, as its in nothing.
Ok, I figured out that I apparently am not too good with css, and after adding in style="position:absolute"; it now works fine.
It was hard to explain with words, so I tried to explain with graphics.
There is a div here with its style.
Now if I change its width with 400px here...
because of it is a transformed (rotated) object, something happens and "TOP-LEFT" corner of it, moves down.
Now I want to keep its "TOP-LEFT" position fixed. But I couldnt find a correct correlation to fix it. I guess I need a trigonometric formula using rotation angle.
Also I know it is related with 'scale' and 'transform-origin' and can be easily done with them but I dont want to use any other transformation parameters. Especialy 'transform-origin' because of lack of browser support.
Does anybody here who can help me with the correlation which will be used in JavaScript to fix its corner. Maybe getBoundingClientRect() can be used for this.
Here is the FIDDLE
Thank you.
CSS transforms are really matrices, where transforming the elements are done with
matrix(a, b, c, d, tx, ty).
Then someone clever figured out it would be too complicated for webdesigners to understand such a matrix, so they added shorthand solutions, like transform: rotate() etc.
In other words, if you view the computed styles, there won't be a style whith the rotated degrees, and you can't do element.style.transform and get the rotation angle back again, all you'll get is the matrix.
Since the browsers use a matrix, all browsers that support CSS transform, also support changing the origin of that transform, so if you can rotate the element, you can change the origin.
The exception is Microsoft's filters, but even there you can rotate and change the origin, it's just a little more complicated to figure out.
As it makes no sense to not just change the origin of the transformation, and calculating it yourself would do the exact same thing, only a hundred times more complicated, you should really just add this to the CSS to solve the issue
-moz-transform-origin: 0 0;
-o-transform-origin: 0 0;
-webkit-transform-origin: 0 0;
transform-origin: 0 0;
FIDDLE
Just to confirm this, looking at MDN, at the bottom of the following pages, you'll find browser support, and it's just about the same for transform and transform-origin, as you generally never have one without the other
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/transform
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/transform-origin
As a final note, if it were me, I wouldn't even worry about IE8 and below, as those users are probably used to things looking weird these days anyway.
If you don't want to use transform-origin you can do this :
FIDDLE
$(function () {
var isScaled = false;
$('#box').on('click', function () {
if (isScaled) {
isScaled = false;
$(this).width('200').css({'top':'50px','left':'50px'})
} else {
isScaled = true;
$(this).width('400').css({'top':'24px','left':'46px'});
}
})
});
As other people has stated, you can use transform-origin. However, if you still want to do it via Javascript, I've done it for you in this jsfiddle.
Basically, what I do is to calculate the rotated position of the top left corners of each figure using the matrix transform for rotations (simplified), assuming the center point of the figures as (0, 0), which is, basically, what the browser does. Once I calculate the new positions for the corners, I calculate the difference, and substract that difference from the original left and top positions. I hope you find it instructive.
$(function () {
var isScaled = false;
var box = $('#box');
box.on('click', function () {
if (isScaled) {
isScaled = false;
$(this).width('200');
placeBox(400, 200);
} else {
isScaled = true;
$(this).width('400')
placeBox(200, 400);
}
});
var left = parseInt(box.css('left'));
var top = parseInt(box.css('top'));
var angle = (345 / 360) * 2 * Math.PI; //in radians;
function placeBox(oldWidth, newWidth) {
var midHeight = box.height() / 2;
var midOldWidth = oldWidth / 2;
var midNewWidth = newWidth / 2;
var cos = Math.cos(angle);
var sin = Math.sin(angle);
//rotation center coordinates
var cx1 = left + midOldWidth;
var cx2 = left + midNewWidth;
var cy = top + midHeight;
var mx1 = -midOldWidth * cos + midHeight * sin;
var my1 = -midOldWidth * sin - midHeight * cos;
var mx2 = -midNewWidth * cos + midHeight * sin;
var my2 = -midNewWidth * sin - midHeight * cos;
var difX = cx2 + mx2 - cx1 - mx1;
var difY = my2 - my1;
//now, position the element where it should:
box.css({
left: (left - difX) + 'px',
top: (top - difY) + 'px'
});
}
})
This Fiddle is showing the problem: http://jsfiddle.net/y343Z/19/
If you change the "shadow" size, it is moving alongside it's X Y axis.
Here one possibile soution.
http://jsfiddle.net/y343Z/18/
Just place shadow inside of the tranformed element:
<div id="box">
<div id="box-shadow" style="width:400px;"></div>
</div>
With this CSS:
#box {
width:200px;
height:200px;
position:absolute;
top:50px;
left:50px;
-moz-transform:rotate(345deg);
-webkit-transform:rotate(345deg);
-o-transform:rotate(345deg);
-ms-transform:rotate(345deg);
}
#box-shadow {
width: inherit;
height: inherit;
background-color:silver;
position:absolute;
opacity: 0.3;
}
#box {
background-color:orange;
-ms-filter:"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)";
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
-moz-opacity: 0.5;
-khtml-opacity: 0.5;
opacity: 0.5;
}
Just to clarify: I know that is not desired for a real shadow, since this has to be outside of the transformed box. But i think your shadow object is a "helper" that contains handles like in your screenshot.
Edit:
As other user posted, you may also use transform-origin: http://jsfiddle.net/y343Z/20/
transform-origin: left center 0;
Actually I'm looking for a jQuery plug-in that can handle this:
there is a container with overflow hidden
inside of this is another one, which is way larger
when i move over the div, the part I'm seeing depends on my current position
when I'm in the left top corner I see the top left corner of the inner container
when I'm in the middle i see the middle of the container …
I wrote a little JavaScript that does that:
this.zoom.mousemove( function(event) {
var parentOffset = $(this).parent().offset();
var relativeX = event.pageX - parentOffset.left;
var relativeY = event.pageY - parentOffset.top;
var differenceX = that.zoom.width() - that.pageWidth;
var differenceY = that.zoom.height() - that.pageHeight;
var percentX = relativeX / that.pageWidth;
var percentY = relativeY / that.pageHeight;
if (1 < percentX) {
percentX = 1;
}
if (1 < percentY) {
percentY = 1;
}
var left = percentX * differenceX;
var top = percentY * differenceY;
that.zoom.css('left', -left).css('top', -top);
});
But this isn't very smooth and kinda jumpy, when you enter from another point of the container. So, before reinventing the wheel: Is there one plug in, that does exactly that and has iOS support (drag instead of mouse move)? All zoom plug ins (like Cloud Zoom) are over the top for this purpose and most have no support for dragging on iOS.
And if there's not something like this. How can I make this smoother and cooler. Any approach would be helpful. :)
Many thanks.
So, here is my solution - which works pretty well and is easy to achieve. There could be done some improvement, but to get the idea i'll leave it that way. :)
there is a demo on jsfiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/insertusernamehere/78TJc/

var zoom = null;
// this function will work even if the content has changed
function move() {
// get current position
var currentPosition = zoom.position();
var currentX = currentPosition.left;
var currentY = currentPosition.top;
// get container size
var tempWidth = zoom.parent().width();
var tempHeight = zoom.parent().height();
// get overflow
var differenceX = zoom.width() - tempWidth;
var differenceY = zoom.height() - tempHeight;
// get percentage multiplied by difference (in pixel) cut by percentage (here 1/4) that is used as "smoothness factor"
var tempX = zoom.data('x') / tempWidth * differenceX / 4;
var tempY = zoom.data('y') / tempHeight * differenceY / 4;
// get real top and left values to move to and the last factor slows it down and gives the smoothness (and it's corresponding with the calculation before)
var left = (tempX - currentX) / 1.25;
var top = (tempY - currentY) / 1.25;
// finally apply the new values
zoom.css('left', -left).css('top', -top);
}
$(document).ready(function () {
zoom = $('#zoom');
//handle mousemove to zoom layer - this also works if it is not located at the top left of the page
zoom.mousemove( function(event) {
var parentOffset = $(this).parent().offset();
zoom.data('x', event.pageX - parentOffset.left);
zoom.data('y', event.pageY - parentOffset.top);
});
// start the action only if user is over the container
zoom.hover(
function() {
zoom.data('running', setInterval( function() { move(); }, 30) );
},
function() {
clearInterval(zoom.data('running'));
}

This one has, of course, no support for touch devices. But for that I use (again)/I can recommend the good old iScroll … :)
