a simple scripted motion tween question

[mrk13]

hi u all!
i found a nice tut about tweening with action scripting, and actually can make some sense of it. hooray! it works. but how could i alter the code so that i can make my object (here figure1_mc) move diagonally instead of straight horizontal/vertical line? the tut explains only how to toggle x or y values separately. ok ok, my cover has blown: i'm pretty new to action scripting, but i'm learning...

here's the code:

var easeType = mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut;
myTween = new mx.transitions.Tween(figure1_mc, "_y", easeType, 0, 300, 30);

so if there's anyone with extra hands out there, i sure could use one now

if you do a _x tween and a _y tween then you get a diagonal tween.

var easeType = mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut;
myTweenx = new mx.transitions.Tween(figure1_mc, "_x", easeType, 0, 300, 30);
myTweeny = new mx.transitions.Tween(figure1_mc, "_y", easeType, 0, 300, 30);

i actually tried that earlier, but it wouldn't work for me - now, double-checking i found a mistake in instance names. how typical is that. blind as a bat, me...
thanks, this helps a lot!
