hey artguy,

 

first, and it's probably just a typo or you forgot to uncomment something you were testing:

 

mc_play.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, forward);
mc_play.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, reverse);

 

you are overwriting the first ROLL_OVER on mc_play with the second.

 

next, reverse() is a method that gets applied to a tween and not a movie clip directly.

 

here is a basic implementation:

 

import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.easing.*;

btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, btnOver);
btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, btnOut);

var playMovie:TweenMax ;

function btnOver(e:MouseEvent):void{
playMovie = TweenMax.to(play_mc, 1, {frameLabel:"end"});
}

function btnOut(e:MouseEvent):void{
playMovie.reverse();
}

 

 

 

so you are telling the tween to reverse and not the movie clip.

 

 

have fun
