Tweener (caurina.transitions.Tweener) is a Class used to create tweenings and other transitions via ActionScript code for projects built on the Flash platform. It's released and maintained for these versions: ActionScript 2.0, for Flash 7+ and ... [More] Flash Lite 2.0+ ActionScript 2.0, for Flash 8+ ActionSctipt 3.0, for Flash 9+ Ported versions are also available: haXe version (ported by Baluta Cristian) JavaScript version (ported by Yuichi Tateno) JavaScript version (ported by Michael MacMillan) vvvv version using nodes vvvv version using a native C# dll (faster) (ported by by Rene Westhof) In layman's terms, Tweener helps you move things around on the screen using only code, instead of the timeline. The general idea of a tweening Class is that dynamic animation and transitions (created by code) are easier to maintain and control, and more stable than animation based on the regular Flash timeline, since you can control it by time rather than by frames. Aimed both for designers and advanced developers, the Tweener syntax is created with simplicity of use in mind, while still allowing access to more advanced features. Because of this, it follows a 'one-line' design mentality when creating new tweenings, with no instancing required (as it's a static Class) and a set of optional parameters. Also, there are no initialization methods required by Tweener, other than the mandatory 'import' command. Its fluid syntax allows it to be used to tween any numeric property of any object of any class, so it is not tied to specific properties of built-in Classes such as MovieClips or TextFields. This flexibility grants a wider control on how transitions are performed, and makes creating complex sequential transitions on any kind of object easier. Small file overhead is also one of the main goals of Tweener - once included on SWF movies, Tweener currently takes 8.8kb (AS2 FL2), 9.2kb (AS2) or 10.4kb (AS3) of the total compiled file size. It can be compiled with the Flash IDE, MTASC, or Flex SDK (even with strict rules on), with no errors or warnings thrown during compilation. Tweener is also the spiritual successor to MC Tween. However, it follows ActionScript's more strict OOP rules, and gets rid of the fixed parameter order syntax imposed by MC Tween. As a result, code written with Tweener is a lot more readable even for developers not versed on the Class. Development wise, modularity is one of the main aspects of Tweener. The code is built in a way that new features such as transitions and special tweenings can be added (or removed) easily: for example, properties that are only acessible through methods and functions can be tweened by creating and registering new special properties. Expanding the feature set of the original Class can be done on a per-project basis, with no change to the original files. From this page, you can download the latest stable (heavily tested) version of Tweener, check out a few examples with source, or read the documentation. There's also a mailing list for Tweener discussion. If you prefer, you can also get the very latest versions from Subversion, before they're considered stable and featured on the download list (the changelog is available here). The repository can also be viewed with a web browser. And although the project has been started on June 2005, it has only 'gone public' very recently, so in most accounts, Tweener's still on its infancy: there's still some work to be done, more features to be added, optimizations to be performed, more examples to be created, the documentation is lacking, and the discussion list still has low traffic. However, a new stable version is released every 20 days (on average), there are a lot of nice features on the queue, and the engine's flexibility already allows for a wide range of different uses. The future is looking bright. [Less]

this project provides some actionscript classes that are used by the daily flash work. the library is created and maintained by the sfug (swiss flash user group ).

"If God does not exist, everything is permitted" - Fyodor Dostoevsky, in The Brothers Karamazov "'Everything is permitted' does not mean that nothing is forbidden..." / "One can be virtuous through a whim" - Albert Camus, in The Absurd Man BTween ... [More] is aimed to provide both a very strict and verbose syntax - which motivated me to write this api - and a very loose, quick'n'dirty one. First one is intended to comply with the complexity of current flash/flex applications, which will benefit from the tighter use of good OOP practices and patterns. Second is given to the simple uses we still may have of flash - you certainly won't want to loose time creating a fully standardized and documented application when coding a simple banner, for example. I strongly disrecommend the use of long chains of tweens in a single line for a serious application, as well as I recommend the use of the regular Event model in most cases, and the instantiation of BTween objects instead of the "static calls" way. So this looks good to me: var tween:BTween = new BTween(); tween.queue( doSomething ); tween.add( blueBall, { y:100 } ); tween.add( redBall, { y:200 } ); tween.start();While this might be good for a banner that will be sent to trash after a couple of days of use BTween.make().start([blueball,redBall],{y:200}).queue(doSomething);With this being an intermediary approach: var tween:BTween = new BTween(); tween.queue(doSomething); tween.start([blueball,redBall],{y:200});This flexibility haven't made of BTween a sumo fighter, though. The minimal footprint is around 3k, making it light enough to be used in banners or other weight-sensitive uses. The API is also meant to be easily extensible, you can actually code your own extension in a few minutes, implementing IProperty or ISequenceable interfaces. BTween is in ALPHA state, though I've been using it for almost an year, and even its design is being improved each day. If anyone is interested in helping, I'd be happy to give commit rights.

Tweener.Net is a light-weight C# module for easy animation of visible attributes in .Net and Silverlight 2 applications. At Projectplace we found ourselves in need of a Tweener in a .Net project. Failing to find one we made one. Since the problem ... [More] solved by a Tweener is so general we're now publishing it, hoping others will have use for it and also participate in developing it. This Tweener is heavily inspired by Zeh Fernando's Flash Tweener. The C# code took of as an improvement on Miguel Moreno's Tween.cs. When we say "light weight", we mean it. Although the tweener will probably fatten some with time, it will try to stay simple, lean and easy to use. [Less]
