I’m working on a 6 minute project, which is basically a presentation. It is 1280 X 722. The whole project is contained in about 10 frames, with movie clips on each frame that contain all the animations. Within each movieclip, I have an audio stream for the dialogue, but I animate most of the presentation using tweener.

About 3/4 of the way through, the animations start getting choppy and then stall out altogether. Does this sound like a tweener issue? I’ve tested on four different computers, always with similar results.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get it working more smoothly?

A sample keyframe is below.

Thanks

import caurina.transitions.\*;

var seperator:Number = 55;  
var boxArray:Array = [“Item1”, “Item2”, “Item3”, “Item4”, “Item5”, "Item"6, “Item7”, “Item8”];

processArrows\_mc.gotoAndPlay(“execute”);

Tweener.addTween(instance\_mc, {x:700, y:370, scaleX:1, scaleY:1, time:2, alpha:1});  
Tweener.addTween(processArrows\_mc, {x:50, y:550, scaleX:.5, scaleY:.5});

for (var i:Number=0; i \< 8; i++)  
{  
this[“box”+i].category.text = boxArray\*;

Tweener.addTween(this[“box”+i], {scaleX:.5, scaleY:.5, x:100, y:90 + j\*seperator, alpha:1});  
}
