Check if a function has finished to fire the next function? :(

[OVI]

Hey there,

I am currently trying my 5. workaround to get my menu done. . I want to move a series of 4 buttons up, after a click and when all buttons finished their movement I want the bottom 3 to move down again.

My big problem ist, that I dont get a check working to see if the function move() hast finished in order to fire the function open(). Is there any listener or so?

Here is my code:

//Setup and register with Zego Engine
import com.mosesSupposes.fuse.*;
ZigoEngine.simpleSetup( Shortcuts, PennerEasing, Fuse );
//-----------------------------------------------------------

//Setup Variables

var projects_counter:Number = 1;
//trace("initial projects_counter = "+projects_counter);

var max:Number = 6;

var myListener = new Object();
//-----------------------------------------------------------

function move() //starts the movement of all projects, y:"movement target in absolute coords")
{
for ( var s = 0; s < max; s++ )
      {
         var f:Fuse = new Fuse ();
         f.push ([
 				  	//{target: _root["project"+(projects_counter+1-s)], y: 100-(s*35), time: 1+(1/((1/s)+1)), ease:"easeOutQuint"}, //move all elements with smaller index than the clicked one
				  	{target: _root["project"+ (projects_counter+s)], y: 100+(s*35), time: 1+(1/((1/s)+1)), ease:"easeOutQuint"} //move all elements with higher index and including the clicked one
				]);
	f.start();
		
      }
	  
}


function traceFunction()
{
    trace("TWEEN COMPLETE")
}


function open() //opens the menu for the content, y:"opening value (relative distance)"
{
for ( var n = 1; n < max; n++ )
      {
         var f2:Fuse = new Fuse ();
         f2.push (
				  	{target: _root["project"+(projects_counter + n+1)], y:"200", delay: 0.2, time: 2+(1/((1/n)+1)), ease:"easeOutBack"}
				 );
		 f2.start();
		//trace("(open) n = "+n);
      }
}

_root.project1.onPress = function()
{
	projects_counter = 1;
	move();
    move.addListener(Event.COMPLETE, traceFunction);
}

I attached the fla file, too.

Many thanks in advance!!

maybe using a TWEENING class like TWEENMAX or even the TIMELINE MAX class would be a better solution for you?

it has a stop, start, play reverse.. buy more importantly..

is has the onComplete function where you can execute another function/action once that tween is done.
