Movieclip tween on move
Hi, I'm new to AS3 and trying to get to grips with it all.
When using AS2 a mc when moved via AS would slide to the new position. I have some AS3 code, which when the left or right buttons are pressed moves the mc to a new position, but it just jumps to the new position instead of sliding.
How would I alter the code so that it slides to the new position instead of jumping? I've searched everywhere and tried to add tweenLite but I really am stuck :(
Here's the code I'm using -
illleftButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP , leftbuttonill);
function leftbuttonill(event:MouseEvent):void{
if (MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x < -40){
(MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x += 1250.0);
}
else if (MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x > 3.8){
(MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x += 0);
}
}
illrightButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_U P, rightbuttonill);
function rightbuttonill(event:MouseEvent):void{
if (MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x > -7000){
(MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x -= 1250.0);
}
else if (MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x < -7000){
(MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x += 0);
}
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You are moving the movieclip by 1250pixels in 1 go. You need to move it 1 pixel at a time.
MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x = MovieClip(root).mainContainer.illustration.x - 1;

It's an image slideshow, so I need it to move +1250.0 at a time to view the next image (the images are 1250.0 apart from each other within the mc).
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think it's got anything to do with the amount of distance it's moving but more to do with it needing a tween class? I'm just not really sure on how I'd go about adding a tween class.
Sorry for not making this clear.
