im using MC Tween [URL] but i have a question how can i use multible tweens? if i do
mc.tween("_x", 10, 1.5);
mc.tween("_y", 10, 2.5);
he goes directly to x 10 an y 10 is there a way that he goes first to x 10 and when he's there he goes to y 10?
i am using the gtween erley beta in my project, and i loved the multiTween class that could take an target array and tween all the targets, but now i updated to the latest release, and now the function seams to be gone?
Some one know if this is coreckt ? And are there an anouther tweening lib out there that can do the same?
I seem to remember reading that you shouldn't do it.I was mad at Flash CS4 and CS5 because I wasn't able to make the animation work like After Effects, as far as animating something, having it rest, and then animating it again. I know you can do this already, however, if you add easing you could mess yourself up as the ease gets applied to the entire tween. I wanted to be able to tween something with an ease, then let it rest, then tween it again, again with an ease.
Tonight I discovered this: Place CTI over last frame of first tween, select object, copy. Go to next "slot" and Insert Blank Keyframe, then Paste in Place the object. Make some more frames. Then after it all make a New Keyframe (content from preceeding keyframe gets copied into it, then add more frames, select them and Make Tween. I now have 2 tweens on the same layer, each with their own easing that can't get stretched out of place.However, when I did this I noticed, before making the second tween, that I was not able to just click the object and Make Tween from there. I had to actually make regular frames and convert them
I have a problem, which I couldn't solve. I made three motion tweens. One is the background, which slides in from left. Another one, is a car, which goes in the scene from right. The two visible wheels of this car are spinning too using a motion tween. The problem is that all these motion tweens keep looping. I would like to let the background and the wheels of the car loop forever, but I want the car to come in from right and stop on the left. When I tried to stop it, it stopped the car, but unfotunately it stopped the background too. How could I manage to let the background and the wheels of the car loop, but stop the car in a position?[URL]
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to mask multiple shape tweens for a slideshow animation I'm working on. (the transition would look just like the main animation on this page url...)
Everything works fine when I'm only masking/tweening one shape. But as soon as I add a few more dquares to the mix everything goes to hell. Can someone tell me the most efficient way to have multiple shapes tweening, while masking an image underneath them?
What I am wanting to do is move multiple MCs when a MC (acting as a button) is released, the following is the code that i have tried but it doesn't want to work:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;[code]...........
What I want is to do this [URL] in actionscript rather than with tweens...as u can see, it takes EONS too long to load (on some PCs at least) (and I know, it DOES need a preloader (which I have), but I'm going to add that later. I want to get this going first). Now, I read a decent bit about onEnterFrame, and did some tutes, but I'm not quite sure how to use it to do what I want.
View 2 RepliesI have a few movie clips in the library. each is created at runtime, placed in an existing movie clip, and given some text (each movie clip has a dynamic text box inside). The header text loads, and then body, and then the enter button. My problem is that the tween for body don't work, yet the tweens for the header and the enter text work. The only difference between the header and the body movie clips, is that the textbox inside, in the body clip is set to multiline.[code]
View 3 RepliesPicture this, for now anyway, as I will be uploading my example when I get home from work. I have five squares all the same size on 5 different layers in slightly different posistions so it looks like a diagonal stack of squares.
I have a button called playHead which I need to act as a counter I will now state the play buttons functions. Once the user presses the play button the first square moves horizontally off of the stage through a coded tween, whilst the square behind it moves into its original position.
I need this function to happen for all of the squares, I would ideally like to use a key listener and the LEFT ARROW instead of a button but I am doing it this way firstly.
The problem is that because I am using multiple tweens and only 1 button everytime I press the play head it trys to trigger the first tween: I feel that I need a counter mechanism that turns off tweens that have already finished and counts through a variable to know which square has been moved. I will upload my progress at 6 tonight GMT.
having a problem with targeting multiple motion tweensin Flash CS4. I am using AS2 and attempting to change thevisibility of eight separate motion tweens (visible false and thentrue). I want to be able to affect each tween separately. I amlooking to activate visibility as follows:
if (triggerclip._currentframe == 2) {
sword._visible=true;
}

i'm trying to tween a movie clip, there are multiple, called clipsArray0, 1, 3 etc.. i can pull back the number via creating a listener but when i try and tween this i get an error as the propriety if a String.
How do i get the String name to reference the movieclip with the same name?
clipsArray[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, makeListener("clipsArray" + i));
function makeListener(name:String):Function{
return function (event:Event):void{

I am trying to target multiple tweens, trying to turn their visibility false/true. I have named each tween in the tween properties box, and I have targeted them like this: plane.plane2.tween1._visible=false (and so on), but no go! Only the first of the seven is actually affected--the others are not.
View 11 RepliesI want to get my movieclip "dial_graphcis_mph" to start at X position 0, move to X position -292.35,move back to X position -220, and then yoyo between -230 and -220.Is it possible to do this without using the TweenTimeline class or similar?I want to keep all the code on the stage with the movieclip if possible...The following code only yoyos between 0 and -292.35.
stop();

I'm looking for some actionscript that will move a clip from one point to another, but in a curve. I've done one that tweens the x and y positions as well as the scaleX and scaleY that sort of does this.
Seems I've seen this sort of thing on YouTube at the end of watching a video. A set of small videos appear, they scale up in size and move to a new position, but they go up, and then down smoothly (thus, a 'curve');
I'm trying to create various tween for various movies, comething like this:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;[code].....
My problem is how to call a specific tween to stop it, for example: onrollover stop the tween assigned to "barra3" mc for example. I can't use bot_alpha.stop() it doesn't work. I think it's because i have multiple "bot_alpha" tweens, i need something to dynamic create bot_alpha1; bot_alpha2; ... ...
When I want to ask for a small fee for my app, I'm not allowed to use TweenLite. So I started thinking I could probably replace the tweens with Flash's built-in Tweens. BUT I'm also using rotationY. Flash doesn't support this as far as I know. Are there Tween engines out there with a copyleft?
View 6 Repliesis there a way in as3 to run multiple tweens at the same time without them crashing? eg. I had a problem with a movie clip.. on mouse over it would glow, and if clicked it would move to another place... the problem was if the user clicked the clip while it was glowing, the "glow" tween was interupted and the clip moved to another place but kept the glow... another eg. if i play an embedded video at the same time an animaton of some sort starts at another part of the screen, they both slow down.... so basicly, is there a way to make multiple tweens and/or videos run smooth at the sam time?
View 2 RepliesI'm working on a slide show which includes 3 sections that fade in and out automatically as well as can be navigated via buttons.Everything is working fine until I include a 3d tween animation of a hanging sign.it doesn't have any action script - just a 3d tween where the sign swings however once I include it in the slide show, the whole thing goes crazy:The fade in and out of tweens don't work.sometimes the slide show skips and everything start moving very fast as if the timeline was fast forwarded... can someone please helpe me and point me in the right direction of where to even start trouble shooting it? The problem is that it acts as if there was some kind of script added however there's no action script included in the hanging sign.

how to use the new tweens. All easing seems to mess up my animations. When I apply easing it makes the animation happen before the keyframes that I've set it up for. Instead of easing between the keyframes that the animation is happening on its doing it before those keyframes.
Positioning. I have an animation that has several keyframed animations ahead of it for scaling and alpha. Later down the line I need to change its position but when I try to do that its not moving at the keyframe where i want it to but is instead moving it at the beginning of the animation sequence. I've tried manually inserting a posiiton keyframe at the beginning of where I want the position animation to start and then moving forward in the timeline to where I want the position to end and change the position there but still the same thing is happening.
My tween works but it's coming in from left to right instead of right to left. Here is my [code]...
View 3 RepliesI'm struggling through trying to learn the new tween system. Is it just me or did they completely NUKE workflow with this new system? Is there any way to copy and paste the property keyframes?I often have animations where things loop, so the last frame of the motion tween needs to be the same as the first frame. In the old days I would just select and copy multiple keyframes from frame 1 and paste them at the end. Done in 5 seconds. The only way I can find to do this now is to hand set every freaking property on every freaking keyframe of every freaking object.

View 8 RepliesI have scoured the web reading tutorials and lots of them discuss getting an object from point a to b.I simply want to move an object from left to right (no problem) pause for 20 frames, and then drop down.
I can accomplish it a few ways but it seems to involve way too many cryptic steps. One solution is fairly easy to implement but the resulting timeline visualization is really poor.[code]...
I'm going nuts trying to figure this out. I built an animation project at 630 pixels wide. Turns out the project needs to be 430 pixels wide. In CS3, using the classic tweens, I would simply resize the stage, Onion All, then resize everything on the stage at once. But with the new tween structure, it looks like I can't do a mass resize like that. Anything that's been tweened using the motion editor does not resize.
I know I can just create a new movie clip, paste all frames into it and then resize the MC, but I have some JPEGs of signatures that pixellate when they are resized that way. So, can you onion skin the new tweens? Is there a workaround?

I've been searching all over for an answer to this, but have not had much luck. I have an .xml file that loads its data into a DataGrid. However, I don't want all the data to load up at once. I would like it to load the first five records, and after x amount of seconds fade out and fade in with the next five records.
View 2 RepliesI have been working on this banner ad using motion tweens (with scaling) for four objects, three road signs and a background. Sometimes it runs very smoothly, but most of the time, the four objects run in a very jagged way? Does it have to do with four motion tweens happening at the same time?
View 2 RepliesI'm brand new to Flash (started last week). Playing with motion tween editing and thought I understood the difference between using the selection versus sub-selection tools.BUT...... Under certain circumstances (and I haven't been able to get a "handle" on what those circumstances might be), I seem to get a control point on EVERY frame, whether a key-frame exists at that point or NOT on the TL (also, whether I got the sel or sub-sel tool selected makes no difference).
