Just wondering, do u guys usually use actionscript to do alpha and tint fade? or just use the propeties tween control?

i heard that using actionscript will be better as it will not lag if the user’s computer is slow…

here is to get a better idea what i’m trying to achieve using tweening

\*\*To Alpha fade in, white tint fade in and then fade out white tint to original state.  
\*\*

I knoww how to script the alpha fade in but i have problem with the tint fade. I also have read through every line of [http://actionscript.org/tutorials/advanced/Color\_fade/index.shtml](http://actionscript.org/tutorials/advanced/Color_fade/index.shtml)  
but i just don’t know how to go about implementing it to my case.

i will really appreciate it if u can help enlighten me 🙂
