How to add animation to the globe

[advaith-unnikrishnan]

Hi @vasturiano Thanks for building this amazing tool. I was using the globe.gl in one of my projects and wanted to add a spin animation to the globe and I encountered an issue.

• I tried to animate the rendered div containing the globe using CSS, but I am unable to select only the globe.
• Is there any way to select only the globe and add specific animation to it?

If you could share any helpful resources it would be great 🙂

@advaith-unnikrishnan thanks for reaching out.

You can tell the controls to continuously animate the spin. Like it's done in this example.

Thanks for the help. It works now.

I have one more question, is it possible to adjust the scale of the globe? In the documentation, I found only the parameters to adjust the height and width of the canvas. If you could help with this it would be great.

Scale as in zoom level? If so, you can adjust that using pointOfView.
