Did you import the Tween class as well, or only the transitions?

The period needs to go after the word easing. It’s going to be in between the ‘easing’ and the asterisk. Also, the asterisk needs to have the quotes removed.

Did you put in the asterisk and period after ‘easing’.

i dont know how to use the tween class !!! i was never good at as only animating …

Sorry I was responding to Saafi.

The reason you’re having an issue is because you entered this;

import mx.transitions.easing;

that doesn’t point to a class, that’s an actual folder. What you want to do is import the classes within that folder which requires the wildcard value. To fix the issue you need to change that line to;

import mx.transitions.easing.’star’;

You need to replace ‘star’ with the asterisk character ( Shift+8 ). The reason you were getting it wrong is because this forum doesn’t properly display that character (which is why the original reply had wierd font size issues)

Why would you want such a big setup? I ran 2 22’s for a while and found that it was actually worse than just using one monitor and switching apps. For me, the time it took to switch between apps was shorter than the time it took to rotate my chair and look at the other screen.

What’s the problem with using the tween class in complicated designs? I’ve never had an issue with it.

The fact that AS3 is several times faster than AS2 makes it worth it for me. I was working on a file that took a text string, then iterated through it and on every character made a new Clip to hold that letter, then used the tween class to tween those letters/MC’s into place. At about 200 letters the difference between AS2 and AS3 was painfully obvious.
