Blur with TweenLite

[MutleyDog]

Newby question here, but how do you blur using TweenLite? I've done the usual forum and Google search but it's really the syntax I'm after.

If tried:

TweenLite.to(my_mc,1,{_blurX:5, _blurY:5});

and various other combinations with no luck. Do i need TweenMax, as I tried this with some success but it'd be good to keep things with TweenLite as I'm using that for most of the animations and I only need to blur one thing.

 

Cheers!

Check out the Plugin Explorer - hit the "example" button next to "blurFilter" and you'll see an interactive example with code.

 

If you want to use TweenLite, just don't forget to activate the BlurFilterPlugin like:

 

import com.greensock.plugins.*;
TweenPlugin.activate([blurFilterPlugin]);

 

You only need to do that once in your swf.

 

Then it's as simple as:

TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {blurFilter:{blurX:10, blurY:10}});

Well I've tried for a few hours and I dont seem to be getting too far using either tweenLite or Tweenax. I've attached a simplified version, but basically, I've made a movieclip with the instance 'mc' and applied the following:

 

import com.greensock.plugins.*;

TweenPlugin.activate([blurFilterPlugin]);

TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {blurFilter:{blurX:10, blurY:10}});

 

 

...obviously there's the com folder from TweenLite.

 

This is all in AS2 by the way....

... and attachment is just to illustrate what I've done. It's only a simplified version for illustrative purposes.

You're forgetting to import TweenLite.

import com.greensock.TweenLite;

Doh! I'm going to sit in the corner and write out 100 times:

"I must import TweenLite", ,"I must import TweenLite", "I must import TweenLite", "I must import TweenLite"

 

Thanks for your help!
