How stop a TweenMax looped with "yoyo" paramater

[Kittisak]

Hi all,

 

Thanks for this wonderfull class.

 

However, I cannot find the solution of my problem.

 

In a playlist, I use a TweenMax with "yoyo" paramater on "true", to make the track name blink while playing :

 

tabTrack[ct].alpha = 1;
TweenMax.to(tabTrack[ct], .3, {alpha:.2, repeat:-1, yoyo:true});

 

I would like the track name to stop blinking when playing is over. But I cannot figure out how to remove or transform a Tween that has been launched to make it blink.

 

Thanks for your help

create a reference to your tween:

 

var blinkTween:TweenMax = TweenMax.to(tabTrack[ct], .3, {alpha:.2, repeat:-1, yoyo:true});

 

 

and then when you want it to stop do:

 

blinkTween.pause();

 

and you can also send your tween to a particular time

 

blinkTween.currentTime = .6

And by the way, if you want to kill all the tweens of a particular object, you can simply use the TweenLite.killTweensOf() method. Like:

 

TweenLite.killTweensOf(tabTrack[ct]);

 

Carl's solution gives you the most control, though, because you can isolate just a particular tween (in case you don't want to kill the other tweens of the same target).

Hi Dternim1st,

 

It sounds like this post is very closely related to: https://greensock.com/forums/topic/9182-detect-reverse-start-event/

 

It really helps to keep the discussion in one spot. Please feel free to create new threads at any time. Better than resurrecting threads that are 5 years old. 

 

Thanks.
