MovieClip setValues

billydb

Can someone give a quick example of how to use the new option to change movie clip tweens at run time?
I'm trying to change the y value of a tweened sprite at certain point during the game.
Thanks

To my knowledge this isn't possible. I wrote my own method to use easing.lua and step it with an enter frame event instead.

But it was part of 2015.08

Allow Movieclip to tween properties through 'set()' method (just like GTween)

I might be mis interpreting this but I assumed it was referring to someTween:setValues(y = {100,200}), or something like that, I cant remember exactly how gtween does it.

Whoa, must have missed that! I suppose this needs updating: http://docs.giderosmobile.com/reference/gideros/MovieClip#MovieClip

All that it means is that MovieClip internally calls set method for provided Sprite with the property name you specified in tweening.

So to be able to tween custom properties, you need to overwrite your sprite's set and get methods and do what you need to do with new value there

It would be good if a function was available to let you know the frame counter for a particular movie clip...

OK I guess I did mis interpret
But just to make sure the horse is actually dead, there is no way currently to change a pre existing movie clips target values?

Unfortunately no, no way to changed provided targets
