Actually, one quick question: you said you are using mcList as an array of movieclips -- are these created at runtime? Or, do you have a movieclip with a bunch of photos inside? I'm a bit confused on your usage of the word 'array'. Thanks!

Hi Brian. Thanks for the code. I ended up realizing I could cheat it a bit by duplicating the first slide and putting it under the last slide hierarchy-wise while using this: var timeline:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite({onComplete:resetMe}); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image1, 2, {_alpha:0}), 1); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image2, 2, {_alpha:0}), 1); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image3, 2, {_alpha:0}), 1); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image4, 2, {_alpha:0}), 1); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image5, 2, {_alpha:0}), 1); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image6, 2, {_alpha:0}), 1); function resetMe (){ timeline.restart(); } But, I'll definitely use a more dynamic solution like yours when I'm not banging my head off the wall next time . Thanks again!

All I am simply trying to do is dissolve 6 photos and loop while fading back into the first one after the last one shows. I've tried everything under the sun and it shouldn't be anywhere near this difficult... //as2: var timeline:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite(); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image1, 1, {_alpha:0})); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image2, 1, {_alpha:0})); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image3, 1, {_alpha:0})); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image4, 1, {_alpha:0})); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image5, 1, {_alpha:0})); timeline.append(new TweenLite(image6, 1, {_alpha:0})); I've tried varied stack orders (alpha:100) reverse stack (alpha:0), onCompletes, onStarts, hiding all images but the first and alpha tweening it to 100 and going from there. And, also, for some reason the images fade in at 1 second transitions as expected, but once it gets to image 6 it's as if it's on its own fade out timer, but this is the only code in the entire document. What am I missing here? To be honest, I've spent about 20x longer on trying to figure this out than simply doing it through classic tweens by hand. Arghhhhhhhhh! It should be explicitly simple to cross-dissolve images on a loop. I imagine that's what 99% of people use this package to do. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
