Hello friends-
I'm trying to decide the best way to use TimelineMax (or Lite) to create a slideshow. I've created a standard timeline GUI that allows users to adjust timing, and need to create a timeline instance with corresponding time values. I've tried using offset and delay, but both are cumbersome to manipulate because they all affect the other tweens in the timeline.
Is there an easy method in TimelineMax I'm missing that allows me to set an absolute time to execute the tween? Something like...
timeline.append(TweenMax.to(pic1, 1, {alpha:0}), absTime:50);
timeline.append(TweenMax.to(pic2, 1, {alpha:0}), absTime:120);
timeline.append(TweenMax.to(pic3, 1, {alpha:0}), abstTime:200);
and so on... Absolute time would obviously be a variable. The first tween would start 50 frames after calling timeline.play(), the second 120 after start, etc... (assuming useFrames:true). Changing the tween duration would not affect the absolute timing at all (unless there was an overlap).
What's the best way to do this? Thanks in advance!!!
