Could it be you have var tween_handler:Tween inside of a function? If it's a
class variable it won't get garbage collected, if it within a function it's
eligible for garbage collection when the function is complete.
YES:
class myClass {
var tween_handler:Tween;
function myFunction() {
tween_handler = new Tween(mc,"alpha",Strong.easeInOut,1,0,.5,true);
}
}
NO:
class myClass {
function myFunction() {
var tween_handler:Tween;
tween_handler = new Tween(mc,"alpha",Strong.easeInOut,1,0,.5,true);
}
}

Thanks - for to need such hand holding.... I tried what you said but get the
same results... What should be in the //do your stuff here?
as far as I have it now - the tween is still handled in the original tween
(tween_handler in your example)....

Howdy,
> You tween objects got garbage collected.
I was bit very hard by that one in a kiosk touch screen that needed to have
certain things happen after the tween was finished. So when garbage
collection stopped the tween, things went very messed up and/or locked up.
:)
Here is how I fixed that:
var tween_handler:Tween;
tween_handler = new Tween(mc,"alpha",Strong.easeInOut,1,0,.5,true);
tween_handler .addEventListener (TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH, doYourFunction;
function doYourFunction (evt:TweenEvent):void
{
tween_handler .removeEventListener (TweenEvent.MOTION_FINISH,
doYourFunction);
// do your stuff here
}
Then you should be fine,
John
