I have a createEmptyMovieClip. Upon the press of a button on my main menu a .swf loads into the createEmptyMovieClip.

My problem/question is this: I want the loaded clip to tween in along \_x to approximately center stage.

I know this has something to do with the mx.transitions.Tween and mx.transitions.easing classes. The Flash Help section gave this code as sounding really close to what I want to do:

new mx.transitions.Tween(emptyKTVN\_mc, “\_x”, mx.transitions.easing.Elastic.easeOut, 0, 300, 3, true);

But when I tried to apply it it just loads the external .swf into the 300 mark on \_x instead of tweening into place.

Any help on this is appreciated…including any tutorials that I might be pointed to.
