[RESOLVED] .swf not acknowledging some AS

[r3h0ld3r]

I've scripted a small flash file that for some reason, does not throw any errors but does not apply the tweens I have set for the beggining...

Please take a look at what I mean:

import gs.TweenLite;
import gs.easing.*;

var tabs:Array = new Array();
var btnProps:Array = new Array();
var prop:Rectangle;

for(var i:Number = 0; i < top_menu_buttons.numChildren; i++)
{
    var _btn:MovieClip = MovieClip(top_menu_buttons.getChildAt(i));
    _btn.buttonMode = true;
    _btn.mouseChildren = false;
    _btn.id = i;
    _btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, onOver, false, 0, true);
    _btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, onOut, false, 0, true);
	_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, menuClick, false, 0, true);
    tabs.push(_btn);

    var _rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(_btn.x, _btn.y, _btn.width, _btn.height);
    btnProps.push(_rect);
}

tab_photo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, buttonOver, false, 0, true);
tab_photo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, buttonOut, false, 0, true);
tab_photo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick, false, 0, true);

TweenLite.from(photo, .2, {alpha:1});
TweenLite.from(tab_photo, .2, {alpha:1, delay:.2});
TweenLite.from(products_section, .2, {alpha:1, delay:.4});
TweenLite.from(tab_products, .2, {alpha:1, delay:.6});
TweenLite.from(services_section, .2, {alpha:1, delay:.8});
TweenLite.from(tab_services, .2, {alpha:1, delay:1});
TweenLite.from(environment_section, .2, {alpha:1, delay:1.2});
TweenLite.from(tab_environment, .2, {alpha:1, delay:1.4});

function onOver(e:MouseEvent):void
{
    // prop contains the initial x,y,width,height properties of the targeted movieclip
	prop = btnProps[e.target.id];
    TweenLite.to(e.target, .2, {x:prop.x+10});
}

function onOut(e:MouseEvent):void
{
    TweenLite.to(e.target, .2, {x:prop.x});
}

function menuClick(e:MouseEvent):void
{
	switch(MovieClip(e.currentTarget).id)
	{
		case 0:
		trace("1");
		break;
		case 1:
		trace("2");
		break;
		case 2:
		trace("3");
		break;
		case 3:
		trace("4");
		break;
		case 4:
		trace("5");
		break;
		case 5:
		trace("6");
		break;
		case 6:
		trace("7");
		break;
	}
}

function buttonOver(e:MouseEvent):void
{
    TweenLite.to(e.target, .2, {x:x-10});
}

function buttonOut(e:MouseEvent):void
{
    TweenLite.to(e.target, .2, {x:x});
}

function buttonClick(e:MouseEvent):void
{
	TweenLite.to(top_menu_buttons, .2, {x:670});
	TweenLite.to(top_menu_background, .2, {x:670});
}

All the tweens I have, that I'd like to play as the .swf begins, are not playing at all. Anyone have any idea why this is happening?

I'm not sure, but you're using the .from() method, while I usually use the to() method.
Then again, I'm not familiar at all with those tween classes

Try it anyway!

I was being unwise and had all the properties set as though it was TweenLite.to.

Problem solved.
