Subject: [Flashcoders] TweenLite, AS2 and negative _xscale
My first outing with TweenLite (AS2).
I've been donated a walk cycle for a project and it sits nicely in a
MovieClip.
The walk-cycle is facing left, so I can animate the MovieClip right to
left using TweenLite. Perfect.
Problem is that going the other way, I've tried flipping the MovieClip so
that it points the to the right by negating the _xscale property. Works
perfectly until I try and animate the flipped MovieClip with TweenLite. It
dissapears. Remove the negation and it's fine. Leave the MC untweened and
it just plays in situ, as expected with the negative _xscale.
Doesn't matter if I flip the horizontal using the ide or do it in
actionscript.
I could flip every frame of the walk cycle inside the MC but that's
tedious and leaves me with a clean-up operation.
Anyone done this with TweenLite, or should I give up on TweenLite with a
MC with a negative _xscale?
Just to say that I've solved the problem by nesting the flipped walk cycle
MovieClip in another MovieClip. Happiness.
Paul
