Quick question about sequential tweening

[MikeTheVike]

I'm new to using TweenLite, used Tweener in the past. I'm working on a banner ad and need to keep file size low. With Tweener I could put tweens sequentially and just set a delay. It would go through and activate the tweens when the delay number was hit. I'm trying something similar with TweenLite and it's not working, I think the second tween is canceling out the first one before it's delay time is met. How do I accomplish something like what I have in the code below? Thanks!

 

	TweenLite.to(mc_text_01, .5,  {scaleX: 1, scaleY: 1, alpha:1, ease:Back.easeOut, delay: .5 });
	TweenLite.to(mc_text_01, .5,  {scaleX: 0, scaleY: 0, alpha:0, ease:Back.easeIn, delay: 3 });

Check out the FAQ #6:

If you can afford an extra 1k, I'd recommend just initializing OverwriteManager in AUTO mode like this:

OverwriteManager.init(2);

 

(you only need to do that once)

 

Or set overwrite:false on each of your tweens. Details about overwrite modes at http://www.greensock.com/overwritemanager/

Thanks for the quick reply! I read the FAQ question like 20 times and skimmed right over the "overwrite". That worked, thanks!
