Tracing the current position of tween

[Arod2013]

Hey everyone, I've searched but have come up pretty much empty handed.... Is there a way you can trace the current position of a tween object?

 

I'm messing around in Flash CS6 and using some Timers and Tweens and I would like to see how accurate I can get them, but stuck on tracing the object's current position.

The tweening engine just sets the normal properties (albeit many times per second), so you can just access those directly. You don't have to go through the tweening engine somehow. For example:

TweenLite.to(mc, 2, {x:200, y:300});
//you can trace() the position anytime like this:
trace(mc.x + ", " + mc.y);

Or if you want to constantly trace them each time they update:

TweenLite.to(mc, 2, {x:200, y:300, onUpdate:report});
function report():void {
    trace(mc.x + ", " + mc.y);
}

If, however, you're asking how to find out how far along a tween is (progress-wise), you can get its time() whenever you want. The time() method returns the current time, like the playhead position of the tween/timeline.

 

Does that answer your question?
