Hello all, i’m new to this forum and to the as3 in general.

i have the following code:

```
	}
	public function addText(mc:MovieClip,x:Number,shown:Boolean):void{
		text_mc=mc;
		outTextTween=new Tween(text_mc,"x",None.easeNone,x,stage.stageWidth+100,.25,true);
		overTextTween=new Tween(text_mc,"x",None.easeNone,stage.stageWidth+100,x,.25,true);
		outTextTween.stop();
		if(!shown) overTextTween.stop();
		showingText = shown;
	}

```

now i want to also add fade in & out to it, how do i do that? HELP PLEASE.
