TweenMax help URGENT!

[retropunk]

Hey guys - Sorry for the lame post but I need to turn this redundant code:

timeline.append( new TweenMax(clip1.clip, speedIn, {y:"-130", ease:easeInType}) );

timeline.append( new TweenMax(clip1.clip, speedOut, {y:"130", delay:.6}) );

 

timeline.append( new TweenMax(clip2.clip, speedIn, {y:"-130", ease:easeInType}) );

timeline.append( new TweenMax(clip2.clip, speedOut, {y:"130", delay:.6}) );

 

timeline.append( new TweenMax(clip2.clip, speedIn, {y:"-130", ease:easeInType}) );

timeline.append( new TweenMax(clip2.clip, speedOut, {y:"130", delay:.6}) );

 

etc...

 

into something like this:

var targetClip = ["clip1"].clip; // I know this line is wrong but you see where I'm going?

timeline.append( new TweenMax(targetClip, speedIn, {y:"-130", ease:easeInType}) );

timeline.append( new TweenMax(targetClip, speedOut, {y:"130", delay:.6}) );

 

I have a dozen or so animations happening the way I want but I need to be able to control the targetClip value.

The targetClip value will be constantly changing.

 

Thanks in advance for the help!

I assume you mean:

 

var targetClip:MovieClip = this["clip1"].clip; 

 

or if you are using a variable:

 

var myClipName:String = "clip1";
var targetClip:MovieClip = this[myClipName].clip;
