Need help toggling my tween

[vdubplate 0 Likes (Newbie)]

There is a prob an easy solution to this. I'm having a hard time finding the logic that I need.

So I have a window that needs to open and close on the click of a button. so first click window opens. Second click window closes.

 

This is what i think my code will kind of look like but doesn't work.

I don't know how to structure the logic.

can someone help me out?

 

import flash.events.MouseEvent;

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


container_mc.find_more_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, myFunction);
function myFunction(event:MouseEvent):void
{   

   if(event.type == "Click"){
       TWEEN FORWARD
   }else if(event.type == "Click++"){
       TWEEN BACK
}

I've attached a basic example

 

here is the code:

 

import com.greensock.*;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;


window.alpha = 0;
var windowShowing:Boolean = false;
var windowTween:TweenLite = TweenLite.to(window,.5,{alpha:1,paused:true});



toggle_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, toggleWindow);

function toggleWindow(e:MouseEvent):void
{
//this makes windowShowing the opposite of what it is, if true then switches to false
       //if false then switches to true
windowShowing = ! windowShowing;

if (windowShowing)
{
               //do something to show your window
	windowTween.play();
}
else
{
               //do something to hide the window
	windowTween.reverse();
}
}

Thanks Carl

 

I'll give this a go in the morning and keep the code on hand for next time.

I appreciate the time you put in to show me this.
