Hi, What is the trick to get the timeline to carry on after the below tween loop in timelineMax? .from(".class", 1.5, { y:-100, repeat:-1, repeatDelay:3, yoyo: true}) I've not been able to find one for love nor money...

Hi, I have a simple movie that has two tweens happening (two photos going down in scale slightly at the same time, var car and var photo; a background object and a foreground object). This works fine on the first loop, but nothing happens on the second loop, and the third loop the foreground object ("car") has been scaled twice, so appears too small, and again no animation happens. There are some 'position reset' issues here that I don't understand, most of what I try in the 'reset to start position' in the code makes things worse. Any help gratefully recieved. Thanks.. import com.greensock.* import com.greensock.easing.*; import flash.display.MovieClip; //import flashx.textLayout.operations.MoveChildrenOperation; var text1:MovieClip; var photo:MovieClip; var finalText:MovieClip; var blackMask:MovieClip; var button:MovieClip; var price_text:MovieClip; var car:MovieClip; // STARTING STATES text1.alpha = 0; finalText.alpha = 0; price_text.alpha = 0; button.alpha = 0; button.x = 370; blackMask.alpha = 1; photo.scaleX = 1; photo.scaleY = 1; car.scaleX = 1; car.scaleY = 1; //ANIMATE SEQUENCE var max_loops:Number = 3; var loop_count:Number = 1 var TL:TimelineLite = new TimelineLite({onComplete:countUp}); function playOnce():void { TL.to(photo, .2, {scaleX:"+=0.1",scaleY:"+=0.1"}); //FADE FINAL TEXT IN TL.to(blackMask, .4, {alpha:0}); TL.to(photo, 3, {scaleX:"-.09",scaleY:"-.09"},1); TL.to(car, 2, {scaleX:"-.1",scaleY:"-.1"},1); TL.to(button, 1.5, {alpha:1}, "-=0.1"); TL.to(text1, 1.5, {alpha:1}, "-=0.1"); TL.to(finalText, 1.5, {alpha:1}, "-=0.1"); TL.to(price_text, 1.5, {alpha:1}, "-=0.1"); TL.to(button, .5, {x:255}, "+=0.5"); //WRAP 'LOOP RESET' TWEENS IN CONDITIONAL, last run ends at FINAL text if (loop_count<max_loops) { //FADE FINAL TEXT OUT TL.add([new TweenLite(blackMask, 1, {alpha:1}), new TweenLite(button, 0.3, {alpha:0}), new TweenLite(finalText, 0.3, {alpha:0}), new TweenLite(text1, 0.3, {alpha:0}), new TweenLite(price_text, 0.3, {alpha:0}), new TweenLite(button, 3, {x:370}), ], "+=3"); //RETURN TO START POS new TweenLite(photo, 0.25, {scaleX:"0.1",scaleY:"0.1"}); new TweenLite(car, 0.25, {scaleX:".1",scaleY:".1"}); new TweenLite(button, 0.3, {alpha:0}); new TweenLite(button, 0.25, {x:370}); new TweenLite(car, 0.25, {scaleX:"0.1",scaleY:".1"}), TL.play(); } } function countUp():void { loop_count++; init(); } function init():void { if (loop_count<=max_loops) { trace("played "+loop_count+" times"); playOnce(); } } init();
