I’ve got an animation in which I have used the tween class for some nice movement. I was wondering how it would be possible to time it out? Like how would you go about saying something like: Wait 6 seconds, then tween, wait 6 seconds, then tween, etc…

Here is my code right now:

> import mx.transitions.Tween;  
> import mx.transitions.easing.\*;  
> var xScaleSpalding:Tween = new Tween(spaldingTest\_mc, “\_x”, Strong.easeOut, 0, -300, 1, true);  
> xScaleSpalding.onMotionFinished = function() {  
> var yScaleSpalding:Tween = new Tween(spaldingTest\_mc, “\_y”, Strong.easeOut, 0, -250, 1, true);  
> yScaleSpalding.onMotionFinished = function() {  
> var xScaleSpalding2:Tween = new Tween(spaldingTest\_mc, “\_x”, Strong.easeOut, -300, 0, 1, true);  
> xScaleSpalding2.onMotionFinished = function() {  
> var yScaleSpalding2:Tween = new Tween(spaldingTest\_mc, “\_y”, Strong.easeOut, -250, 0, 1, true);  
> };  
> };
