I am using Tweener.AddTween() to apply some transitions to my sprites which take say quarter of a second. After transition is completed I need to do something else. The problem is the line immediately following the transition is executed right away (does not wait for the transition to complete) and messes everything up. Is there a way to somehow synchronously wait until the transition complete without tying up CPU in a loop, etc?

hey p3pp3r,

there is a parameter for the caurina tweener call "onComplete" that performs a function after it is completed. it goes right into the addTween method.

Here is more detail about the onComplete parameter (along with several other useful ones):

example:

Tweener.addTween(myobj, {x: 45, onComplete: myFunction});

hope that helps. good luck!

You will need to add onComplete 

http://hosted.zeh.com.br/tweener/docs/en-us/parameters/onComplete.html

If you need to pass parameters just add onCompleteParams

http://hosted.zeh.com.br/tweener/docs/en-us/parameters/onCompleteParams.html

I know I am passing you off to the documentation, but I wanted to get in before JRab

EDIT:  YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!  I couldn't have planned that any better...  The above sentence ( now bold ) was in my original reply and of course once I submitted I conveniently noticed that someone beat me to it.

The function can also be inline:

Tweener.addTween(myobj, {x: 45, onComplete: function():void{myobj.visible=false} });

@kdittyr: i think we're making it difficult for people to ask questions around here... we're an eager bunch

@p3pp3r: looks like you put a lot of thought into this matter - sorry for the difficulty haha
