how can you pause/resume a specific tween?

[chrisatflash]

Hello,

Is it possible to pause a specific tween by it's diplayobject type?

I noticed TweenMax.pauseAll() , but Is there also something like TweenMax.pause(obj) and TweenMax.resume(obj) ?

the easist thing to do would be to store a reference to the individual tween you want to pause and resume

 

var boxTween:TweenMax = new TweenMax(box, 1, {x:300});

 

boxTween.pause();

boxTween.play();

 

 

OR use TweenMax.getTweensOf(box) and then loop through the array of tweens and pause/resume them all

I created a util for this, so now I can stop all tweens of any displayobject.

 

package com.chris.util 
{
import com.greensock.TweenMax;
import flash.display.DisplayObject;
/**
 * ...
 * @author Chris S
 */
public class TweenMaxUtil 
{

	static public function stopAnimation(obj:DisplayObject):void {
		var tweenArray:Array = TweenMax.getTweensOf(obj);
		for (var i:int = 0; i < tweenArray.length; i++) {
			var tweenref:TweenMax  = tweenArray[i] as TweenMax;
			tweenref.pause();
		}

	}

	static public function startAnimation(obj:DisplayObject):void {
		var tweenArray:Array = TweenMax.getTweensOf(obj);
		for (var i:int = 0; i < tweenArray.length; i++) {
			var tweenref:TweenMax  = tweenArray[i] as TweenMax;
			tweenref.play();
		}

	}

}

}
