ActionScript 3.0 :: What Causing Tween To Stop Before Completing
Feb 5, 2011
Is there a bug in the as3 tween class that causes tweens to stop before completing. I read that there is and that a 3rd party tween class should be used. I'm just starting out learning as3 and experimenting but this would be good to know when I move onto more complex projects. Also the solution for this was to make your function global. Does this simply mean place your function in the top level of your movie.

I'm having some problem with a alpha tween, it works well when loading pictures then fades them IN and OUT but when I load a movieClip it only fades IN to, maybe 50%, the video object remain transparent. When I CLICK in other button before fades OUT, the movieClip fades to 100% and then it fades OUT.
The project is a XML gallery that loads images and movieClips (all external), the movieClips work like a container to one image (like the other pictures gallery) and one Youtube video (that remains over the picture).
If I remove the fadeIN tween all works fine, I think the problem was in the Timing of code compilation but I can't solve it out.[code]...

I have a menu I'm building in Flash, the version with no animations can be seen at [URL]. I'm trying to make the block of text on the left tween in from the left. That block of text is a movie clip made up of three dynamic text boxes. Each text box reads in a variable from a text file. Ideally, what I want to do is have the tweening in the movie clip. However, when I add in a keyframe at any point in the movie clip, the dynamic text will display and animate up to that point and then disappear. Also, to mkae things more annoying, only the first of the three blocks will move at all. I can change the alpha or whatever I want to on that first one, but the others seem to be off limits. Could this be due to the fact that I set the second and third blocks to be just below the title block in action script? Does that interfere with tweening?

i've got a pretty small (in my opinion) usage of motion tween on the following site: [URL]
the circles are moving around and rotating.. not that big of a deal compared to many much more flash intensive websites that i've seen.
on a few computers i've viewed the website on, this page slows down the rest of the computer, the circles move real choppy, etc so it's very taxing on the computer/processor. making this a less intense flash tween? is it something that i'm overlooking or is what my flash file is doing truly that difficult for a computer/browser to process?

I am using CS3 actionscript 2. I am having trouble with the preloader. It works, but it is causing the stop commands throughout the rest of the movie to not work. I know it is the preloader because when I remove it, it works. It is just a basic preloader. index12.fla has it with the preloader and index13.fla doesn't.[URL]...

I'm making a "master movie" for an assignment and I'm stuck right now. What I've got is an Intro page that will serve at the Parent.swf to load 4 other child swf's upon a mouse click. The problem is I have a theater stage where I tweened an animation to make it appear the curtain on the stage is going up but once it reaches it maximum height....the tween abruptly stops. I want it to HOLD there until a user clicks a button.
How would I make this happen? Here is the page in question: [URL]...

I have been writing a Flash Web App that basically reads a master XML file, which is just a list of XML files that are scenarios for a client. Its like an image Gallery, except instead of Images its a series of Scenarios that show all the great abilities of the Product.
My problem is that I have created an interval based animation with the Tween Class, and it works fine except when the User Clicks the next Scenario Button, there is always an Object or two that stays behind and animates.[url]...

I'm trying to load an external swf file that will be used as a system.

Now, the progress handler is tracing out that the file is being loaded, but it never triggers the the Event.COMPLETE event. Tracing out the Loader.loaderInfo returns null in functions.

I've started using Motion Tweening in CS4 and I am puzzled by something with how the durations are set. The best way I can describe this is by comparing it to what are now called Classic Tweens. In a Classic Tween, I set the beginning and end keyframes of a particular animation, and when the playhead reaches the ending keyframe, the animation stops. In a CS4+ Motion Tween, I set the first keyframe and then make changes using the motion editor, but when I add frames to the timeline, the tween keeps on growing, and the animation doesn't stop correctly. Is there some trick to telling the Motion Tween that it should only be X amount of frames?

Here is a better explanation. I am doing this:
[Code]...
I have a lot of traces because I can't figure out what is going on. When you roll over the menu_hello, it stops the "up" perfectly, and on rollout resumes. but if it is going down, and you rollover, and the trace confirms the down, and the rolling over.... but IT DOESNT STOP.

I have 4 buttons that are part of the main tween (they are scrolling across the screen).When you hover over one they do a small animation.When you click it you get sent to a web page in a new window.Up to here everything is working fine.I'm trying / need to get the whole scrolling animation to stop when hovering over one of the buttons, i tried adding "onrollover" to each button with referance to the main movie - nothing.Tried adding a code in my action frame that applies to every button..

Have recently made a few educational activities which are experiencing performance problems on older machines. Basically, tweens are not completing and causing things to behave strangely.I don't think it's the well-known garbage collection problem with tweens not completing as I use TweenMax for all the tweens. Also, on any half-decent machine, everything works correctly but if tested on an old laptop it all goes a bit wrong.
EDIT: I've not got around to adding a pre-loader yet so things might take a while to download..

If I put several tweens in a loop - rewind and start them again - they suddenly stop(!!) after a while (about 10 sec). [URL] But when I put the code in an extended Sprite Class with the DisplayObject everything works as expected. [URL] Ok, "problem solved", but why is this? I don't understand. Is it a bug, or am I doing it wrong? It works in AS2 (Test 3). [URL]

have a movie clip that I am moving with tweens. When the user clicks a button it creates a new tween and the movie clip moves. However, I have another button that sets the position of the same movie clip. The problem comes when this button is clicked if the tween is in progress. The tween continues and my content moves out of view. Is there a way to stop or delete the tween when the second button is clicked?Here is a simplified example of the relevant AS:
button1.onRelease = function(){
new Tween(movieClip, "_y", Strong.easeOut, movieClip._y, movieClip._y + 200, 1, true);
}

I have code that growsUp and growsDown an object using a rollOver and rollOut.
I want to remove the ability to click on this object whilst it is either growing up or growing down.
Here is my code:
Code:
var rewind:Boolean = false;
guitarButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,growUP);
guitarButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,growDown);
//on rollOver, makes the Guitar either grow up or down, respectively

I use alpha tween when Im about to show a new content and then if they change content the first content will alpha down to 0 right away.
example:
lets say i have two tabs, "contact us" and "about us" and a person click the "about us" tab they will then trigger this [code]...
and if they then click on the "contact us" tab within 1 second they will alpha down the "about us" content but because the tween time isnt up it will come back again. So I need a way to remove the other tween.

I want the tween to end when the alpha and the _x tween go back to the beginning. here is my code
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var xScaleT:Tween = new Tween(kText, "_x", Back.easeOut, 0, 476.7, 3, true);[code].......
I cant stop the code without interuppting the reversal of the tween.

I'm having trouble using a scrollRect on an object instance on the timeline that has a motion tween. As soon as I apply the scrollRect to it, the object just stops! I've attached a simple fla that shows what I'm talking about.
Simply comment out this line in the first frame's actions to see the oval move across:
Code:
oval1.scrollRect = window;
The actual application I'm making is using a scrollRect on a custom list control, where each item in the list is a symbol in the library. It works great, except if I try to move my list around using a motion tween (the list still works, but the list doesn't move in the motion tween). As soon as I remove the code to apply the scrollRect, it works but the list fills the screen!

I am attempting to make an app in which you can load an image file from your computer or from a URL. I have the computer file part working fine, but am having an issue when I'm trying to load an image from a URL. Here is the code:
[Code]...
The problem: After the load is requested, it doesn't call any of my events. There are no errors and there is no loading. You can see from this code a snippet of things I've tried to see if there is an error. urlFile.text is a string returning from my flex textInput. I put in a hard coded string instead of the urlFile.text and that did not work. I changed to a URLLoader instead of a base Loader, and that sort of worked (it completed the load) but I couldn't do the image manipulation afterwards that I wanted to do, and I saw in other posts here that a Loader is the correct thing to be using.

I'm trying to create the following application:There are 5 different (non overlapping) MC's placed on a still background. They each represent a parcel that will unwrap itself by clicking the corresponding button (invisible button laying over the MC). I want to accomplish two things:1. The viewer must be able to click each of the buttons at random, which should leave each of the buttons disabled after the first time being clicked. A parcel should only unwrap itself once.2. As soon as the last of the 5 parcels has been unwrapped (Each MC stops automatically: actionscript on last keyframe MC), a new MC should start playing automatically (continuing the application). Thus without having to click anything additionally.I hope there is somebody who can make any sence of what I have tried to explain.

For some reason the x++ loop to move clip doesn't work. There must be an easy fault.
cX=iButton[i].x;
while (cX>iX) {
iButton[i].x=cX;
cX--
}
It should move a thing smoothly, as I understand it, but it doesn't. It completes the while and then shows the iButton at iX, completing the loop without showing a thing meanwhile. I even put a 1000-count for{} loop to slow it down, but it just delayed the final outcome. I also tried to move the moving to a separate function, and into a package. (It's these menus I want to slow down.)

I'm a young girl who recently discovered flash cs3 (I started yesterday) I found this tutorial about how to make a flying bird. I did as the tutorial said, I just made a butterfly instead of a bird. Now I made a flower and I want the butterfly to land on the flower. The tutorial only showed me how to make the bird/butterfly fly through the scene and not how to stop it while I still see it in the scene. I figured out how to stop the motion tween but then the butterfly dissappeared from the flash file after it stopped and I also figured out how to make it land on the flower but it keeps moving its wings Now I need help to make it stop moving the wings while it's still visible. I hope my explanation is understandable. As I said I just started with this program so I don't know how to explain all the different things.
I tried to upload the file on imageshack but it seems like it doesn't support this kind of file, or I'm saving it wrong. I could need some help with that too so I can show others what I'm making without that they have to download the file so it's easier to get help when I'm stuck A link to the .swf file [URL]
