Go 0.4.3 + HydroTween

Check the most recent Go Post for updates

Made some updates to HydroTween as well as embarked on a number of extras. Below is the updated special properties tween list:

“Bevel_angle”,
“Bevel_blurX”,
“Bevel_blurY”,
“Bevel_color”,
“Bevel_distance”,
“Bevel_highlightAlpha”,
“Bevel_highlightColor”,
“Bevel_quality”,
“Bevel_shadowAlpha”,
“Bevel_shadowColor”,
“Bevel_strength”,

“Blur_blurX”,
“Blur_blurY”,
“Blur_quality”,

“DropShadow_alpha”,
“DropShadow_angle”,
“DropShadow_blurX”,
“DropShadow_blurY”,
“DropShadow_color”,
“DropShadow_distance”,
“DropShadow_quality”,
“DropShadow_strength”,

“Glow_alpha”,
“Glow_blurX”,
“Glow_blurY”,
“Glow_color”,
“Glow_quality”,
“Glow_strength”

“_volume”,
“_pan”
“_text”
“_tint” // _tint:{tint:0xFF0000, percent:.8}
 

Here’s a tweening syntax example:

HydroTween.go(mc,
{
        x:400,
        y:150,
        scaleX:2,
        scaleY:2,
        _tint:{tint:0xFF0000, percent:1},
        DropShadow_strength:1,
        DropShadow_distance:16,
        Blur_blurX:8,
        Blur_blurY:8,
        rotation:180,
        alpha:1
       
}, 4, 1, Bounce.easeOut, null, null, null, 2, Bounce.easeOut);

_brightness, _saturation, _hue, _contrast are next on my list. I’ve had them working in some form here and there, but the problem I need to get around is when you are tweening more then one of those properties at once. I’m no tweening guru, so this has been an educational experience. I also started and got results with a _lineTo, but want to get the _curveTo done before releasing it.

HydroTween and Go have successfully consumed my actionscript life again for the last week. I need to get back to some projects that I have procrastinated on:) I am proud to say that I’ve already used HydroTween/Go on commercial projects and current work.
