jQuery plugin anticipates on which element user is going to hover/click.
A couple of examples can be found the examples page
Call the function on the elements to catch user aim and add a class which will be added or removed when aiming starts or ends
$('#target').aim({
className: 'open'
});If you want to execute a function on aim starts or ends, use the aimEnter and aimExit options
$('#hamburger').aim({
aimEnter: function() {
$('#menu').show();
},
aimExit: function(){
$('#menu').hide();
}
});To see where your cursor is aiming and check if it intersects with elements use
$.aim.setDebug(true);and you will see a rectangle moving around.
If you don't like the default algorithm, define your own by the following procedure
function anticipateFunc(p, v, mouseX, mouseY, anticipator) {
/*
Calculate the new position of anticipator using inputs
p = {x:number,y:number}
v = {x:number,y:number}
mouseX = number
mouseY = number
Anticipator has some readonly values like the following
{
size: 50,
center: {x: 0, y: 0},
effectiveSize: 1,
rect : {x0: 0, y0: 0, x1: 50, y1: 50}
}
*/
}
$.aim.setAnticipateFunction(anticipateFunc);
