reverse [SOLVED]

[chefkeifer]

I am having some issue getting my tween to reverse. any suggestions would be great. its just stays stationary and does not tween at all..

 

btn1.tractor.alpha = 0;
btn1.tractor.rotationY = 180;

var guestFlip:TimelineMax = new TimelineMax({reverse:true, repeatDelay:5});
			guestFlip.append(TweenMax.to(btn1, 3, {shortRotation:{rotationY:180}}));
			guestFlip.insert(TweenMax.to(btn1.woods, 1, {alpha:0}));
			guestFlip.insert(TweenMax.to(btn1.tractor, 1, {alpha:1, delay:1}));
			guestFlip.reversed = true;

Please read the notes in the documentation about the "reversed" special property (http://www.greensock.com/as/docs/tween/). Remember, it makes the tween/timeline go back towards the beginning, so if you create a tween/timeline and immediately reverse it, since it is already at the beginning, it will appear to do nothing. You can set the totalProgress to 1 to force it to the end so that you see it go backwards all the way from the end to the beginning.

Thanks, after I posted I came up with this. and it works but after it reverses and goes to the beginning and then stops. How do i just get it to loop back and forth.

btn1.tractor.alpha = 0;
btn1.tractor.rotationY = 180;

var guestFlip:TimelineMax = new TimelineMax({repeat:1, repeatDelay:5});
			guestFlip.append(TweenMax.to(btn1, 3, {shortRotation:{rotationY:180}}));
			guestFlip.insert(TweenMax.to(btn1.woods,   1, {alpha:0}));
			guestFlip.insert(TweenMax.to(btn1.tractor, 1, {alpha:1,onComplete:reverse}),guestFlip.duration - 0.5);


function reverse(){
guestFlip.reversed = true;
}

Sounds like you want it to yoyo. Set yoyo to true and the repeat property to however many times you want it to cycle. That's it!

 

(no need for that onComplete call that you're using)

yoyo Ma...thanks Jack...again the simple things seem to be the hardest sometimes
