Tweener
From Wikicliki
Tweener is an actionscript class library which lets you make all sorts of amazing easing in and out animation effects.
My sample implemenation (very simple example)
import caurina.transitions.Tweener; invest_mc.onRollOver = function () { invest_mc.gotoAndPlay("open"); Tweener.addTween(save_mc, {_x:168.5, time:0.3, transition:"easeInOutExpo"}); Tweener.addTween(protect_mc, {_x:58.5, time:0.3, transition:"easeInOutExpo"}); }; invest_mc.onRollOut = function () { invest_mc.gotoAndPlay("close"); Tweener.addTween(save_mc, {_x:376.4, time:0.3, transition:"easeInOutExpo"}); Tweener.addTween(protect_mc, {_x:266.5, time:0.3, transition:"easeInOutExpo"}); }
Referencing the parent / main timeline
Tweener.addTween( this.parent.getChildByName('save_mc'), {x:430, delay:3, time:1, transition:"easeOutBack"});
