Variables
Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you want to change on the element:| Variable | Default | Accepts | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
actions | Text, Image, Audio | string | Comma separated labels for the pills that fan out under the button. Up to six. |
tone | ink | ink, green, blue, violet | Colour of the round button behind the white bars. |
size | 68 | 52px to 112px, step 4px | Diameter of the round button in pixels. The bars scale with it. |
data-variable-values on the element that mounts it. These are the
defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:
<div
data-composition-id="menu-morph"
data-composition-src="compositions/components/menu-morph.html"
data-variable-values='{"actions":"Text, Image, Audio","tone":"ink","size":68}'
></div>

Menu Morph - transitions.dev-inspired primitive for HyperFrames.
Paste the markup, CSS and script into a composition. Use the timeline
integration note at the bottom as the starting point for deterministic GSAP
animation.
Variables. The script reads each one, falls back to the declared default on
anything missing or invalid, and writes the result as a custom property the
CSS consumes (or, for the actions, as the pills themselves). The timeline
recipe below is untouched by them: it still pops the button, crosses the two
outer bars and staggers whatever pills are present.
- actions (text, default Text, Image, Audio): comma separated labels for
the pills that fan out under the button, up to six. The stagger picks up
the new count.
- tone (ink | green | blue | violet, default ink): colour of the round
button behind the white bars. ink is a literal near-black; the other three
ride the composition's own brand, accent and accent-2 tokens and fall back
to that same ink when the composition declares none.
- size (52 to 112 px, default 68): diameter of the round button. The bar
width is a fixed fraction of it, so the whole glyph scales together.
On every default the result is identical to the original: a 68px near-black
button with 24px bars over three pills.
