onMotionFinished x 3? possible

[b18269]

Im trying to get a shutter to come down, then pause for 2 seconds once its down. Then raise back up off the stage and onMotionFinished gotoandPlay a key frame on the root.

I know this is a very messy way to do it (shamefully), but its not working because of the x3 onMotionFinished I think. Does anybody know of a much cleaner way to make this happen?

on (release) {
Shutterdown = new mx.transitions.Tween(shutter, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, shutter._y, 225, 2, true);

Shutterdown.onMotionFinished = function() {
Shutterpause = new mx.transitions.Tween(shutter, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeIn, shutter._y, 225, 2, true);

}
Shutterpause.onMotionFinished = function() {
nextframe = new mx.transitions.Tween(shutter, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeIn, shutter._y, -220, 1, true);
}

nextframe.onMotionFinished = function() {
gotoAndStop("1stscene");
};
}

That is messy. But, it isn't working because shutterpause only has scope insidt the shutterdown onMotionFinished, and not outside in the on(release). The way to do it would be:

on (release) {
Shutterdown = new mx.transitions.Tween(shutter, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, shutter._y, 225, 2, true);

Shutterdown.onMotionFinished = function() {
Shutterpause = new mx.transitions.Tween(shutter, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeIn, shutter._y, 225, 2, true);


Shutterpause.onMotionFinished = function() {
nextframe = new mx.transitions.Tween(shutter, "_y", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeIn, shutter._y, -220, 1, true);


nextframe.onMotionFinished = function() {
gotoAndStop("1stscene");
};
}
}
}
