svg.textmorphing.js

A plugin for the svgjs library to enable text morphing / animation

In order to morph text, we have to convert the text to paths.

So at first we need to load an svg-font which holds the path definition for every glyph:

``javascript

new SVG.SVGFont(font, callback, lazyloading)

`

- font can be an xml string containing a font element, an id pointing to an element containing a font element or can be a path to a file.

- The callback is called when the font is loaded (which is neccessary when the file asynchronously loaded).

- lazyloading specifies if the glyphs should only be pulled from the font if needed or cached all together when loading the font.
This parameter is true per default which means lazyloading is active.

Example:

`javascript

new SVG.SVGFont('myFont.svg', function(){
// callback is called in context of the font

// lets use the font
var text = draw.morphText('ABCDEFG').font({
family:this, // or this.family or just the font-family which is specified in the font
size:50
})

// animate the text
text.animate().text('GFEDCBA')

})

``
