Multiple properties tween class

im having trouble figuring out how to script a tween in AS3 with multiple properties. I have the single property syntax down, like such,
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.TweenEvent;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var name:Tween = new Tween( gar, "x", Regular.easeInOut, 60, 300 , 3, true);
but if I want multiple properties, im having trouble finding that info.
thanks.

i think ive got it. I dropped the var and just did the new Tween statement like such;
new Tween( gar, "x", Regular.easeInOut, 60, 300 , 3, true);
new Tween( gar, "y", Regular.easeInOut, 60, 300 , 3, true);
each new tween acted out at the same time.

Tween Class Easing AS modification help.

hi guys im new here in the forums, ive been searching around about tween class easing in as2 and ive found this great tutorial http://www.republicofcode.com/tutori...enclasseasing/
i need a help though, im not really a actionscript programmer, but i wanted to modify this code:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_x",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
myHoriTween.onMotionFinished = function (){
how would i modify the code so my objects not only goes on a straight line(_x like in the code from 0x to 400x),
what if i wanted a diagonal direction, it will start in x and ends in y?
hope you could show me how its done thanks in advance!!

to tween along a diagonal, tween both the _x and _y properties at the same time:
Code:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_x",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
var myVertiTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_y",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
myHoriTween.onMotionFinished = function (){ }
if you want to tween the _x and then tween the _y, use:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
var myHoriTween:Tween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_x",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);
var myVertiTween:Tween
myHoriTween.onMotionFinished = function (){
myVertiTween = new Tween (myBall_mc,"_y",Strong.easeOut,0,400,2,true);

Need help with AS 2 Tween class

Hi,
I'm using the tween class just fine, but I want my tween to
move on a curve.
I can't seem to figure out how to achievve this.
I get the math to do this sort of thing, and I think I could
manage it with
AS3, but the project requires the use of AS2. I'm having
issues
transitioning what I know to what I need.
Can anyone help??
Thanks,
KB

you can use the tween class to update an object property and,
if you have a parametric equation for your curve, you can use your
tween's onMotionChanged event to update your object's _x and _y
properties.

Error editing task sequence: Failed to load dynamic properties for class "SMS_TaskSequence_ApplyWindowsSettingsAction" From XML into WMI

I've started getting an intermittent error editing my Windows 7 OSD task sequence. Sometimes I can open the TS to edit, but when I try to apply changes I get the error. Other times I get the error when trying to open the TS. If I try again
right away, I still get the error, but if I wait a few minutes and try again sometimes it will open the TS.
The error reads:

I exported the task sequence and checked in "object.xml" for the "ApplyWindowsSettingsAction", to see if there was something odd in the xml, but I don't find anything that jumps out as being wrong. Here's the section of XML for

Is there any other log I should check for a clue on this issue? What could be causing this error?

Thanks for sharing that! I tend to save contacting MS support until after I've exhausted other options. I'm always afraid that I'll spend the $500 to open a case and then it turns out to be something simple that I would have found if I had just
kept working on it myself a little longer.
It looks like that link is for an update released in February as KB3023562. I downloaded and installed it. I'll try opening/editing/saving the task sequence a few times today to see if the issue is resolved.
After I had already installed it, I thought to look up that update in configmgr. The update is listed as superseded by 2 other updates. The newest of those is KB3046049, which just installed last night with the other March patches, so it's possible
that I didn't need to install KB3023562 after all.

Tween Class fails

Hi,
i was looking for some help with tween class beacuse i have a strange problem. I'm working with AS3, when i test my project, sometimes the Tween fails, sometimes it works. It's really strange, i don't know why. The animation stops before the end point. The most strange for me is why sometimes it works and sometimes no?
My code is geting a little complex, then i tried to do the same process in a simple model, and the result was the same, i run the model many times, in 5 or 3 % the animation finished before the correct end point. Does anybody with the same problem?
Thanks in advanced!
Henrique.

Thanks clbeech!
In fact, i was using one code line (var nameTween:Tween = new Tween(...)) and calling this line many times by a Timer event. But, how can i use diferent names for the tween var? May i use a counter like var nameTween[counter]:Tween = new Tween(...)?
My code is a little big and confuse, i'll try to solve the problem without publish the code. If i don't find a solution, i'll organize it and them put it here.
Thanks a lot!
H.

Is there a bug in the as3 tween class

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 have done research on this topic but I found many conflicting answers.
Any assistance is welcome thanks in advance.

the tween declaration (if you need one) must be placed within the scope of the function. so, if the below function f() is defined in a movieclip, you can use any of the 3 (but don't use the last):
///////// most common use ////////////////////////////////////////
var t:Tween;
function f(){
t=new Tween(...)
/////// next most common use /////////////////////////////////////////
//no declaration needed because the tween is not referenced anywhere outside the function so need not be assigned a variable
function f(){
new Tween(...)
/////////// least common, not good coding, but possible ////////////
// var t:Tween; // declared on the root timeline, for example
function f(){
MovieClip(root).t=new Tween(...)
p.s. please mark correct/helpful answers

Making a complex button with the Tween class...not sure why this isn't working.

Hi all,
I'm trying to make a button which scales up on rollover and
scales down on rollout and I wanted to use the Tween class to do it
because I'm going to be making a bunch of these buttons and I want
the code to be as efficient as possible.
So right now I have a circle in a movie clip, and here's what
I have on the first frame of that circle's actions layer:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
function grow(who) {
var tw:Tween = new Tween(who, "_xscale", Strong.easeOut,
100, 400, 1, true);
var tw2:Tween = new Tween(who, "_yscale", Strong.easeOut,
100, 400, 1, true);
function shrink(who) {
var tw3:Tween = new Tween(who, "_xscale", Strong.easeOut,
400, 100, 1, true);
var tw4:Tween = new Tween(who, "_yscale", Strong.easeOut,
400, 100, 1, true);
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
trace(rewind);
if (rewind == true) {
shrink(this);
this.onRollOver = function() {
rewind = false;
grow(this);
this.onRollOut = function() {
rewind = true;
The circle scales up just fine but when I rollout it doesn't
scale back down. I did a trace to see if my tween was being called
and sure enough it was. So I did another trace to see if the
_xscale or _yscale was changing and they both were going down to
around 290 on rollOut although there's no noticeable difference in
the size of the button, it just looks like it's sitting there.
I was also wondering if importing the whole class library
will add very much to my file size?
Also, since I'm going to have a lot of these buttons on the
stage at the same time (these buttons will be like markers all over
a map so there'll probably be around 50+) would it be a bad idea to
have that many onEnterFrame checks running simultaneously? Is that
going to slow the user's CPU way down?

Thanks for the suggestions guys.
I tried your code and got the rollOut to work but the button
blinks rapidly if the user rolls out and then rolls back in
quickly. Here is a link to the swf:
http://www.stationarynotes.com/studioI/buttonTest.swf
It also has to reach a complete stop the first time the
button expands or else it won't run the shrink function on rollOut.
I put all of my code on the first frame of the movie clip's
actions layer so here's what mine looks like:
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
function grow(who) {
var tw:Tween = new Tween(who, "_xscale", Strong.easeOut,
100, 400, 1, true);
var tw2:Tween = new Tween(who, "_yscale", Strong.easeOut,
100, 400, 1, true);
tw.onMotionFinished=function():Void{
who.onRollOut = function() {
shrink(who);
function shrink(who) {
var tw3:Tween = new Tween(who, "_xscale", Strong.easeOut,
400, 100, 1, true);
var tw4:Tween = new Tween(who, "_yscale", Strong.easeOut,
400, 100, 1, true);
this.onRollOver = function() {
grow(this);

Adobe air 2.6 iPhone animation tween class vs onEnterframe

Hi, Does anyone knows what's better to create alpha or slide animations on iPhone applications, using a tween class like Tweener or use the classic onEnterframe. What's the better choice, who's the better performance . Thanks, Nuno

External swf and the tween class

i have an external swf which i import into my main swf using
the loadMovie command. my external swf has some tween class
animations in it. if i run the main movie, the external swf movie
runs fine of course...but the tween classes are not loaded. am i
missing somthing?
here is the code from the external swf file which is applied
to a clickable movie clip of course.
this.onRollOver = function() {
rewind = false;
play();

true);
squaretween.onMotionFinished = function() {
loadMovie("hotairlarge.swf",

any help would be great!

Is it flash bug? Tween Class

I've been working on a bit big project. I've some components on the stage. There are basically 4 frames. Each frame has some components. What I've done is, I've used tween class. Workflow is something like this:
Frame 1:
--used Tween class to get fade effect for List component.
--used Tween.MOTION_FINISH event to fire an event when it is finished.
--when it is finished, applied eventListener
--on Change event, remove eventListeners and use Tween class again to get reverse fade effect.
--again used Tween.MOTION_FINISH event to fire an event when finished.
--in that evenHandler, gotoAndStop(2);
Frame 2:
//similar
Frame 3:
//similar
and so on.. now, what happens, is, if i play with my scene, sometimes tween class failed to work. sometimes it does not display List component, sometimes it displays List component with alpha 0.2. sometimes it happens with movieClip also. Is it flash bug or problem with my code?

probably a coding problem. the most common error that seems like a flash bug would be to define a tween within a function body allowing flash to gc that tween, possibly before it starts and/or completes.

Tween Class - calling Function

What am I doing wrong? I have been using the Tween Class in AS2 for years. This is how I have been using it.
//Beginning of my Flash file
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
function fadeon(mcname:String) {
    new Tween(mcname, "_alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, 1.5, true);
//This is placed on Frames where I want to call this particular Tween
fadeon(mymovieclipsname);
Similiar setup for AS3 with no errors when I run it. The only problem is it doens't work.
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
function fadeon(mcname:String):void {
    new Tween(mcname, "alpha", Strong.easeOut, 0, 100, 1.5, true);
//on Frames where I want to call this particular Tween
mymovieclipsname.fadeon();
if I run this portion the same as AS2 I get this lovely Compiler Error message.
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type flash.display:MovieClip to an unrelated type String.
Any thoughts or help wold be greatly appreciated.

Note that a better solution for AS3 is to simply create a Class that does the tween (to itself), then apply that to each bullet and leave the parent out of it. I'd probably have done the same thing in AS2 as well, but I learned As1>As3>As2, so my experience is not representative.
Here's the Class that I use to do this (note I didn't use a Tween for this task as they have the danger to go out of memory before the tween is done unless you store a reference to them):
package view.effects {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
//view.effects.SimpleFadeIn
public class SimpleFadeIn extends Sprite {
public function SimpleFadeIn() {
   super();
   addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, startFade);
protected function startFade(e:Event):void {
   alpha = 0;
   addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, doFade);
   addEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE, cleanUp);
protected function doFade(e:Event):void {
   if (alpha < 1) {
    alpha += .04;
   } else {
    cleanUp(e);
protected function cleanUp(e:Event):void {
   removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, doFade);
   removeEventListener(Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE, cleanUp);
Note that the reason the path to the Class is there in a comment is so team members can copy and paste it into the Base Class for a MC they want to apply this behavior to.

Tween class trouble

I don't use Tween class often, so don't scold me if this is
an obvious question.
When I set up a simple Tween, it works if I assign a specific
object's instance name as the object to tween. But when doing it
inside a for loop, it doesn't work. Yet everything else within the
for loop works. I've tested every variable, and it's the object
name that doesn't work. Here is a simplified version of the code.
Someone please tell me what I've done wrong.

Walter,
> When I set up a simple Tween, it works if I assign a
specific
> object's instance name as the object to tween. But when
> doing it inside a for loop, it doesn't work.
Interesting. Honestly, your code looks fine. I just
copy/pasted,
literally, and it worked as expected.
I did notice one parameter that might cause some confusion.
In this
line:
var letterUp:Tween = new Tween(this, "_x", Bounce.easeOut,
this._x,
this.startX, 2000);
... that last parameter, 2000, means the tween will progress
*very* slowly,
as it will transpire over the duration of 2000 frames. In a
standard 12dps
movie, the full tween would take over 166 seconds. I'm
wondering if you
meant 2000 in terms of milliseconds? For that, you could drop
it to 2, and
add one more parameter, true, to indicate you want the tween
to transpire in
terms of seconds (true), rather than frames.

Tween class - tweening from curent position

Hi, I've been looking at the tween classes and I was
wondering how I could use it to tween an object that i already
placed on the stage? So using it's current position and tweening to
a new position. Is there a way of doing it by simply using a term
that flash understands (eg _xPosition)?
Cheers
Ray
import mx.transitions.Tween;
import mx.transitions.easing.*;
new Tween(ball_mc, "_x", Elastic.easeOut, 300, 50, 3, true);
new Tween(ball_mc, "_y", Elastic.easeOut, 100, 50, 3,
true);

I think I asked for help a little quick there.
this._x
it looks like that is what I was after.

Tween Class Unreliable?

1 out of 4 function calls from a MouseEvent results in the
MovieClip getting 'stuck' somewhere in the tween. As if it's not
finishing. Has anyone else experienced this? Or am I using the
Tween class wrong?
addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, tweenStyle)
private function tweenStyle(event:Event):void
var scaleYTween:Tween = new Tween( MovieClip, "scaleY",
Strong.easeOut, 0, 1, .5, true );

Just hit this:
Note: Consider variable scope when using the Tween class. If
a tween is created in a function, it is important that the
variable's scope exists beyond the function itself. If a tween is
stored to a variable of local scope, ActionScript garbage
collection removes the tween as the function completes, which will
likely be before the tween has even begun.
Yeah, after making my Tweens class members, no
problemo!

Tween Class Help

Hi everyone. I'm doing a website and I'm having trouble with
something. I have a movieclip that I want to animate using the
tween class. however, I want thetween to occur once the frame that
the code is on loads. This is a problem because I can't use
onEnterFrame because it will play thetween continuously. I need it
to play oncethe frame loads and only once. I tried using the
movieclip.onLoad function but it's not working for me. What am I
doing wrong? Here is the code that I'm using...

If the code is in an externally loaded Movie you need to
determine when the frame is available and the general way to go is
using the MovieClipLoader class.
If the code is in a already loaded movie then follow
naomind's recommendation
