Howdy codeheads, hope you’re all keeping well. I’m hoping someone can help me ‘hack’ this thing together. As a visual designer (not a coder, but I do have a decent level of understanding code … for a visual person), I was in two minds as to whether to get someone to just code this for the project o…

This sounds really cool! Can you clarify in more detail what this effect will look like? I am not able to visualize where the mouse trail will kick in or how the mouse interaction will work in general. Is it more like this effect except the color of the rings will vary: [image] Zooming Con…

The king himself! Thanks. yes actually, I was looking at that effect yesterday. The “difference” is that the cans would zoom/extend to the bounds of the darkest/black area (i.e, edge of screen). I was going to mock up an example (as a motion designer). Maybe I should do that.

If you can provide a really quick mockup, then that would help greatly! Thanks :slight_smile:

Thanks! This will be a fun one. I will try to fiddle with that in the next few days. Will you be having any DOM content in front of it? My current thinking is to just handle this as a canvas-related animation. :package:

Not entirely sure about the DOM content. Perhaps a logo (of the brewery) but nothing crazy. Is clickable stuff an issue? Wouldn’t necessarily need clickable things over the top. Also hoping that it could react to finger drag on devices too. I can explain the ‘line boil’ thing in more detail too … …

@buggles - I haven’t forgotten about this btw! A combination of a new job and moving to a new home have dented my availability a bit :truck: :house: :baggage_claim:

@kirupa … I appreciate the time mate. We’ve got an 11 week old, and I’m balancing a chunk of new work too — no complaints from me. Good luck with the move :slight_smile:

11 months old? I remember those days…:sleeping: ! Our daughter is now three, so that keeps us busy chasing after her haha. I had some time during lunch to fiddle with this, and here is a very hacky starting point: [zooming] Code for this below: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta ch…

Ahhh, 3 years … I’m sure that’s flown by! Nice start. Thanks. It creates some interesting dilemmas doesn’t it? My initial thought was … well it’s basically just like the reverse layering of any old mouse trail … with the movement of each instance just scaling up. But … of course it’s not that simp…

Hope this helps … it’s not perfect, but should offer a bit more insight. Ignore the colours too … just threw it together.
