TweenNano (AS3) Overview

What you'll learn

Learning animation doesn't have to be hard. The built-in capabilities of animation in flash are lacking in many departments when it comes to programmatic animations. To solve these problems one of the most powerful animation engines out there are the ones provided by GreenSock. In this first set of lectures we will introduce you to the classes that are used to animate with this library. Our main hero class will be TweenNano. The TweenNano class enables developers to create simple animations that are not interactive, quickly and efficiently without worrying too much about file size as is incredibly small. Although, in most scenarios you would want to use one of the more advanced library options such as the TweenLite or TweenMax we will cover them in a later chapter. It comes as a wonderful option in cases where do you need to build something that is incredibly small such as a banner. By the end of this chapter you will be able to animate non-interactive animations, a.k.a. create an animation that was preplanned in advance and is not influenced or controlled after it's created.
