Change TimelineLite delay programmatically

[Donna]

Hi,

 

Is there any way to remove the delay from a tween added to a timeline? I would like to have a delay on the first tween the first time the timeline plays, but would like to remove it on subsequent plays.

Thx.

Sure. It's probably easiest though to put the delay on the timeline when you create it and then remove it later with the delay() method as opposed to adding it to a tween and removing it.

//create the timeline with a delay
var tl = new TimelineLite({delay:1});

//later remove the delay 
tl.delay(0);
