Restarting a stored tween?

[dada78]

Hi,

I am getting a bit confused after looking at all the different restart of a tween examples...

All I would like to do is store one tween (myTween) in a variable and later restart that tween. Here is my code:

import com.greensock.TweenMax;
import com.greensock.TimelineLite;
import com.greensock.easing.*;

var tl = new TimelineLite();

var myTween:TweenMax = new TweenMax(card, .5, {x:148, y:168, scaleX:1, scaleY:1, blurFilter:{blurX:0, blurY:0, remove:true}});


//runs the card unblur function .2 seconds into the previous tween
tl.add([cardReg],  "-=0.1")


tl.to(txt1, 1, {alpha:1}, "+=1")
  .to(card, .4, {alpha:0, scaleX:3, scaleY:3}, "+=1")
  .restart(myTween);

 
stop();

Please advise. Thanks!

you can restart your tween at any time like this

myTween.restart()

 

you can restart your timeline at any time with 

tl.restart();

However it appears you are trying to restart your tween at some point in your timeline, which is not the same as just restarting a tween or timeline on its own (shown above).

tl.restart(myTween) // not proper usage of the restart method

i think what you want to do is use TimelineLite.call() to call myTween's restart() method like so:

tl.to(txt1, 1, {alpha:1}, "+=1")
  .to(card, .4, {alpha:0, scaleX:3, scaleY:3}, "+=1")
  .call(myTween.restart)
