animation.*

Overview

The animation plugin provides functions and methods to move, rotate, fade, or scale a display object/group over a specific period of time. It also lets you construct timelines for more intricate sequenced animations across one or more display objects/groups. Features include:

• Ability to move, rotate, fade, or scale a display object/group over a specific period of time.

• Ability to construct and control timelines for intricate multi-interpolation animations.

• Over 40 easing methods. These allow you to adjust the interpolation using methods such as quadratic, exponential, elastic, bounce, etc.

• Programmatically move/set the playback position within a tween or timeline.

• Programmatically adjust the playback speed scale of any tween or timeline.

• Repeat (iterate) a tween any number of times (or indefinitely) with the option to reflect alternating iterations in reverse.

• Ability to interpolate multiple objects at a constant rate, even if they don’t share the same initial/final position, rotation, alpha, or scale.

• Multiple event triggers to detect when a tween/timeline starts, completes, pauses, resumes, etc.

• Ability to tag multiple tweens/timelines by name and then pause, resume, or cancel all of them with one command.

• Ability to pause, resume, or cancel all tweens on an object-wide basis.
