immediate onStart?

[erikb]

Is there a way to have my onStart function fired immediately when I play() my tween?

Currently it looks like it waits until the next tick and gets fired via _internals.lazyRender.

 

Thank you for your help!

Hi Erik,

 

I believe this has to do with the lazy rendering introduced in version 1.12. This basically "delays" the rendering until the end of the current tick.

 

Perhaps you could try using lazy:false in the config object in order to disable the lazy rendering for that particular instance, or if you're using a timeline use  a set() or call() instance, basically anything that is immediately rendered.

TweenLite.to(target, 1, {vars, lazy:false});

Yep, Rodrigo is correct. There are actually three ways I can think of to do it:

// 1) Force a render *after* you create your tweens:
TweenLite.render();

// 2) Set lazy:false on the tween:
TweenLite.to(target, 1, {x:100, lazy:false});

// 3) Force the tween past its start point and back again:
var tween = TweenLite.to(...);
tween.progress(1).progress(0);
