hi Zach, thanks for the reply! Sorry for not being clear enough, I was hoping it would jump out. I've cleared/reset all the values to my knowledge, hence my confusion. There are 2 sets of tweens in particular that are different on repeat, in the code pen its lines 46/47 and 49/50. If you watch all 5 tiles move around (so masterTl plays once) the transition with the #2 grows/slides/shrinks across the width the of grid nicely. On the second repeat of the masterTl it appears to flicker/jerk. I'm assuming it has to do with the left/right values but I've checked and they are the same as when the first play of the masterTl starts. I realize what I'm trying to do is a bit involved, unfortunately I can't use scaleX/Y and transformX/Y due to needing the inner content to flow.
