But we still settled on TweenLite just for it's simplicity. I can write code, but i'm not good and doing timeline tweens graphically. | |

As I wrote earlier you can create multiple animations in the same clip too. The animation you run (i.e. start frame to end frame) and the graphic you display can be set by variables. | |

| Feb 11, 2011 at 1:57 | comment | added | LoveMeSomeCode | That's actually what I tried first. It did work, but the issue I had was this: I have over 2 dozen bitmaps, and I want each tile to use a different one. Otherwise I want them all to react same; same timeline animation, same custom event at the end of each animation etc. Is there a way to where I don't have to add that motion tween and event code to 20 some movie clips if it's all the same except the graphic? | |
