Whenever I use Tweenlite or any programmatic tweening method it often tweens my items before they are ready to be tweened, if that makes sense.

For example, when I say tween box to x position 600 and publish my movie it will tween from some in-between value like it’s too fast for its own good. Is there an easy fix to this?

Thanks
