TweenLite is an extremely fast, lightweight, and flexible animation tool that serves as the foundation of
the GreenSock Animation Platform (GSAP), available in AS2, AS3, and JavaScript. A TweenLite instance handles
tweening one or more properties of <b>any object</b> (or array of objects) over time. TweenLite
can be used on its own to accomplish most animation chores with minimal file size or it can be use in
conjuction with advanced sequencing tools like TimelineLite or TimelineMax to make complex tasks much
simpler. With scores of other animation frameworks to choose from, why consider the GreenSock Animation Platform?:
<ul>
<li>
<b> SPEED </b>- The platform has been highly optimized for maximum performance. See some
speed comparisons yourself at <a href="http://www.greensock.com/js/speed.html" target="">http://www.greensock.com/js/speed.html</a>
</li>
<li>
<b> Freakishly robust feature set </b>- In addition to tweening any numeric property of any object,
TweenLite has plugins that give it the ability to tween hex colors, beziers, css, plus
<b>LOTS</b> more. It can round values, use relative values, smoothly reverse() on the
fly, automatically detect and accommodate getter/setter functions, employ virtually any easing
equation, <code>pause()/resume()</code> anytime, and intelligently manage conflicting tweens of
the same object with various overwrite modes. TweenMax extends TweenLite and adds even
more capabilities like repeat, yoyo, repeatDelay, on-the-fly destination value
updates and more.</li>
<li>
<b> Sequencing, grouping, and management features </b>- TimelineLite and TimelineMax
make it surprisingly simple to create complex sequences or groups of tweens that you can
control as a whole. play(), pause(), restart(), or reverse(). You can even tween a timeline's
<code>time</code> or <code>progress</code> to fastforward or rewind the entire timeline. Add
labels, change the timeline's timeScale, nest timelines within timelines, and much more.
This can revolutionize your animation workflow, making it more modular and concise.</li>
<li>
<b> AS3, AS2, and JavaScript </b>- Most other engines are only developed for one language,
but the GreenSock Animation Platform allows you to use a consistent API across all your Flash and
HTML5 projects.</li>
<li>
<b> Ease of use </b>- Designers and Developers alike rave about how intuitive the platform is.</li>
<li>
<b> Support and reliability </b>- With frequent updates, <a href="http://forums.greensock.com" target="">dedicated forums</a>,
committed authorship, a solid track record, a proven funding mechansim, and a thriving community of users,
the platform is a safe long-term bet (unlike many open source projects).</li>
<li>
<b> Expandability </b>- With its plugin architecture, you can activate as many (or as few)
extra features as your project requires. Write your own plugin to handle particular special
properties in custom ways. Minimize bloat and maximize performance.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<b>USAGE</b>
</p>
<p>
<i>To get up and running quickly, check out the <a href="http://www.greensock.com/jump-start-js/" target="external">Jump Start tour</a>
which covers the basics in a fun, interactive way.</i>
</p>
<p>The most common type of tween is a <a href="TweenLite.html#to()" target="">to()</a> tween which allows you
to define the destination values:</p>
<p>
<code>
TweenLite.to(document.getElementById("photo"), 2, {width:200, height:150});
</code>
</p>
<p>The above code will tween the width and height properties of the &lt;img> DOM element with
an id of "photo" from whatever the current values are to 200 and 150 respectively over the course
of 2 seconds. Notice the width and height values are defined inside a generic object (between curly braces).
Put as many properties there as you want. Also note that &lt;img> elements are one of the few DOM
elements that have <code>width</code> and <code>height</code> properties whereas most others
(like &lt;div> elements) require css properties to be applied in order to control their width/height
(among other properties). To animate those css properties, you'll need to use the CSSPlugin. The CSSPlugin
contains special code for deciphering css-related properties and handling them in unique ways,
like recognizing colors, transforms, etc. and managing the necessary suffixes ("px", "%", etc.).
Once you load the CSSPlugin JavaScript file, you can animate css-related properties by wrapping
them in a generic object that you name "css" like this:</p>
<p>
<code>
TweenLite.to(document.getElementById("div1"), 2, {css:{backgroundColor:"#ff0000", width:"50%", top:"100px"}, ease:Power2.easeInOut});
</code>
</p>
<p>Just tuck all the css-related properties inside the "css" object. The other special properties
like <code>ease, delay, onComplete,</code> etc. stay outside the css object (we'll discuss special
properties later).</p>
<p>By default, tweens begin immediately, although you can delay them using the <code>delay</code>
special property or pause them initially using the <code>paused</code> special property (see below).</p>
<p>The <code>target</code> can also be an array of objects. For example, the following tween will
tween the <code>opacity</code> css property to 0.5 and the rotation transform property to 45 for
obj1, obj2, and obj3:</p>
<p>
<code>
TweenLite.to([obj1, obj2, obj3], 1, {css:{opacity:0.5, rotation:45}});
</code>
</p>
<p>You can also use a <a href="TweenLite.html#from()" target="">from()</a> tween if you want to define the
<b>starting</b> values instead of the ending values so that the target tweens <i>from</i>
the defined values to wherever they currently are. Or a <a href="TweenLite.html#fromTo()" target="">fromTo()</a>
lets you define both starting and ending values.</p>
<p>Although the <code>to()</code>, <code>from()</code>, and <code>fromTo()</code> static methods
are popular because they're quick and can avoid some garbage collection hassles, you can also
use the more object-oriented syntax like this:</p>
<p>
<code>
var tween = new TweenLite(myObject, 2, {width:200, height:150});
</code>
</p>
<p>or even:</p>
<p>
<code>
var tween = TweenLite.to(myObject, 2, {width:200, height:150});
</code>
</p>
<p>
<b>SPECIAL PROPERTIES (no plugins required):</b>
</p>
<p>Typically the <code>vars</code> parameter is used to define ending values for tweening
properties of the <code>target</code> (or beginning values for <code>from()</code> tweens)
like <code>{x:100, y:200, alpha:0}</code>, but the following optional special properties
serve other purposes:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b> delay </b>:<i> Number</i> -
Amount of delay in seconds (or frames for frames-based tweens) before the tween should begin.</li>
<li>
<b> ease </b>:<i> Ease (or Function)</i> -
You can choose from various eases to control the rate of change during
the animation, giving it a specific "feel". For example, <code>ElasticOut.ease</code>
or <code>StrongInOut.ease</code>. For best performance, use one of the GreenSock eases
(which are in the <code>com.greensock.easing</code> package). TweenLite also works with
any standard easing equation that uses the typical 4 parameters (<code>time, start,
change, duration</code>) like Adobe's <code>fl.motion.easing</code> eases.
The default is <code>Power1.easeOut</code>. For linear animation, use the GreenSock
<code>Linear.ease</code> ease</li>
<li>
<b> onComplete </b>:<i> Function</i> -
A function that should be called when the tween has completed</li>
<li>
<b> onCompleteParams </b>:<i> Array</i> -
An Array of parameters to pass the <code>onComplete</code> function. For example,
<code>TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {x:100, onComplete:myFunction, onCompleteParams:[mc, "param2"]});</code>
To self-reference the tween instance itself in one of the parameters, use <code>"{self}"</code>,
like: <code>onCompleteParams:["{self}", "param2"]</code>
</li>
<li>
<b> onCompleteScope </b>:<i> Object</i> -
Defines the scope of the onComplete function (what <code>"this"</code> refers to inside that function).</li>
<li>
<b> useFrames </b>:<i> Boolean</i> -
If <code>useFrames</code> is <code>true</code>, the tweens's timing will be
based on frames instead of seconds because it is intially added to the root
frames-based timeline. This causes both its <code>duration</code>
and <code>delay</code> to be based on frames. An animations's timing mode is
always determined by its parent <code>timeline</code>.</li>
<li>
<b> immediateRender </b>:<i> Boolean</i> -
Normally when you create a tween, it begins rendering on the very next frame (update cycle)
unless you specify a <code>delay</code>. However, if you prefer to force the tween to
render immediately when it is created, set <code>immediateRender</code> to <code>true</code>.
Or to prevent a <code>from()</code> from rendering immediately, set <code>immediateRender</code>
to <code>false</code>. By default, <code>from()</code> tweens set <code>immediateRender</code> to <code>true</code>.</li>
<li>
<b> onStart </b>:<i> Function</i> -
A function that should be called when the tween begins (when its <code>time</code>
changes from 0 to some other value which can happen more than once if the
tween is restarted multiple times).</li>
<li>
<b> onStartParams </b>:<i> Array</i> -
An Array of parameters to pass the <code>onStart</code> function. For example,
<code>TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {x:100, delay:1, onStart:myFunction, onStartParams:[mc, "param2"]});</code>
To self-reference the tween instance itself in one of the parameters, use <code>"{self}"</code>,
like: <code>onStartParams:["{self}", "param2"]</code>
</li>
<li>
<b> onStartScope </b>:<i> Object</i> -
Defines the scope of the onStart function (what <code>"this"</code> refers to inside that function).</li>
<li>
<b> onUpdate </b>:<i> Function</i> -
A function that should be called every time the tween updates
(on every frame while the tween is active)</li>
<li>
<b> onUpdateParams </b>:<i> Array</i> -
An Array of parameters to pass the <code>onUpdate</code> function. For example,
<code>TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {x:100, onUpdate:myFunction, onUpdateParams:[mc, "param2"]});</code>
To self-reference the tween instance itself in one of the parameters, use <code>"{self}"</code>,
like: <code>onUpdateParams:["{self}", "param2"]</code>
</li>
<li>
<b> onUpdateScope </b>:<i> Object</i> -
Defines the scope of the onUpdate function (what <code>"this"</code> refers to inside that function).</li>
<li>
<b> onReverseComplete </b>:<i> Function</i> -
A function that should be called when the tween has reached its beginning again from the
reverse direction. For example, if <code>reverse()</code> is called the tween will move
back towards its beginning and when its <code>time</code> reaches 0, <code>onReverseComplete</code>
will be called. This can also happen if the tween is placed in a TimelineLite or TimelineMax instance
that gets reversed and plays the tween backwards to (or past) the beginning.</li>
<li>
<b> onReverseCompleteParams </b>:<i> Array</i> -
An Array of parameters to pass the <code>onReverseComplete</code> function. For example,
<code>TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {x:100, onReverseComplete:myFunction, onReverseCompleteParams:[mc, "param2"]});</code>
To self-reference the tween instance itself in one of the parameters, use <code>"{self}"</code>,
like: <code>onReverseCompleteParams:["{self}", "param2"]</code>
</li>
<li>
<b> onReverseCompleteScope </b>:<i> Object</i> -
Defines the scope of the onReverseComplete function (what <code>"this"</code> refers to inside that function).</li>
<li>
<b> paused </b>:<i> Boolean</i> -
If <code>true</code>, the tween will pause itself immediately upon creation.</li>
<li>
<b> overwrite </b>:<i> String (or integer)</i> -
Controls how (and if) other tweens of the same target are overwritten.
There are several modes to choose from, but <code>"auto"</code> is the default (although
you can change the default mode using the <code>TweenLite.defaultOverwrite</code> property):
<ul>
<li>
<code>"none"</code> (0) (or <code>false</code>) - no overwriting will occur.</li>
<li>
<code>"all"</code> (1) (or <code>true</code>) - immediately overwrites all existing
tweens of the same target even if they haven't started yet or don't have
conflicting properties.</li>
<li>
<code>"auto"</code> (2) - when the tween renders for the first time, it will analyze
tweens of the same target that are currently active/running and only overwrite
individual tweening properties that overlap/conflict. Tweens that haven't begun
yet are ignored. For example, if another active tween is found that is tweening
3 properties, only 1 of which it shares in common with the new tween, the other
2 properties will be left alone. Only the conflicting property gets overwritten/killed.
This is the default mode and typically the most intuitive for developers.</li>
<li>
<code>"concurrent"</code> (3) - when the tween renders for the first time, it kills
only the active (in-progress) tweens of the same target regardless of whether
or not they contain conflicting properties. Like a mix of <code>"all"</code>
and <code>"auto"</code>. Good for situations where you only want one tween
controling the target at a time.</li>
<li>
<code>"allOnStart"</code> (4) - Identical to <code>"all"</code> but waits to run
the overwrite logic until the tween begins (after any delay). Kills
tweens of the same target even if they don't contain conflicting properties
or haven't started yet.</li>
<li>
<code>"preexisting"</code> (5) - when the tween renders for the first time, it kills
only the tweens of the same target that existed BEFORE this tween was created
regardless of their scheduled start times. So, for example, if you create a tween
with a delay of 10 and then a tween with a delay of 1 and then a tween with a
delay of 2 (all of the same target), the 2nd tween would overwrite the first
but not the second even though scheduling might seem to dictate otherwise.
<code>"preexisting"</code> only cares about the order in which the instances
were actually created. This can be useful when the order in which your code runs
plays a critical role.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
<b>PLUGINS:</b>
</p>
<p>Think of plugins like special properties that are dynamically added, delivering extra abilities without
forcing them to be baked into the core engine, keeping it relatively lean and mean. Each plugin is associated
with a property name and it takes responsibility for handling that property. For example, the CSSPlugin
is associated with the "css" property name so if it is activated it will intercept the "css" property
in the following tween and manage it in a special way so that the tweens affect the element's style object
(for manipulating DOM elements):</p>
<p>
<code>
TweenLite.to(element, 1, {css:{top:"100px", left:"50px", backgroundColor:"#ff0000", fontSize:"12px"}, delay:0.5});
</code>
</p>
<p>If the CSSPlugin wasn't activated (loaded), TweenLite would act as though you were trying to literally tween the
<code>element.css</code> property (and there is no such thing).</p>
<p>In the JavaScript version of TweenLite, activating a plugin is as simple as loading the associated .js file.
No extra activation code is necessary. In the ActionScript version, activating a plugin requires a single line
of code and you only need to do it once, so it's pretty easy. Simply pass an Array containing the names of all
the plugins you'd like to activate to the <code>TweenPlugin.activate()</code> method, like this:</p>
<p>
<code>
TweenPlugin.activate([FrameLabelPlugin, ColorTransformPlugin, TintPlugin]);
</code>
</p>
<p>To make it even easier, there is a <a href="http://www.greensock.com/tweenlite/#plugins" target="">Plugin Explorer</a>
which writes the code for you. All you need to do is select the plugins and copy/paste the code
from the bottom of the tool. It also displays interactive examples of each plugin and the assocaited
code so that its easy to see the correct syntax.</p>
<p>
<b>EXAMPLES:</b>
</p>
<p>Please see <a href="http://www.greensock.com" target="">http://www.greensock.com</a> for examples, tutorials, and interactive demos. </p>
<b>NOTES / TIPS:</b>
<ul>
<li> Passing values as Strings and a preceding "+=" or "-=" will make the tween relative to the
current value. For example, if you do <code>TweenLite.to(mc, 2, {x:"-=20"});</code> it'll
tween <code>mc.x</code> to the left 20 pixels. <code>{x:"+=20"}</code> would move it to the right.</li>
<li> You can change the <code>TweenLite.defaultEase</code> if you prefer something other
than <code>Power1.easeOut</code>.</li>
<li> Kill all tweens of a particular object anytime with <code>TweenLite.killTweensOf(myObject);</code>
</li>
<li> You can kill all delayedCalls to a particular function using <code>TweenLite.killDelayedCallsTo(myFunction);</code>
or <code>TweenLite.killTweensOf(myFunction);</code>
</li>
<li> Use the <code>TweenLite.from()</code> method to animate things into place. For example,
if you have things set up on the stage in the spot where they should end up, and you
just want to animate them into place, you can pass in the beginning x and/or y and/or
alpha (or whatever properties you want).</li>

The object that dispatches a <code>"tick"</code> event each time the engine updates, making it easy for
you to add your own listener(s) to run custom logic after each update (great for game developers).
Add as many listeners as you want. The basic syntax is the same for all versions (AS2, AS3, and JavaScript):
<p><b>Basic example (AS2, AS3, and JavaScript):</b></p><div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
//add listener
TweenLite.ticker.addEventListener("tick", myFunction);
function myFunction(event) {
//executes on every tick after the core engine updates
}
//to remove the listener later...
TweenLite.ticker.removeEventListener("tick", myFunction);
</pre></div>
<p>Due to differences in the core languages (and to maximize efficiency), the advanced syntax is slightly different
for the AS3 version compared to AS2 and JavaScript. The parameters beyond the first 2 in the addEventListener()
method are outlined below:</p>
<p><b>JavaScript and AS2</b></p>
<p><code>addEventListener(type, callback, scope, useParam, priority)</code></p>
<p>Parameters:
<ol>
<li><b>type</b> <i>: String</i> - type of listener, should always be <code>"tick"</code></li>
<li><b>callback</b> <i>: Function</i> - the function to call when the event occurs</li>
<li><b>scope</b> <i>: Object</i> - binds the scope to a particular object (scope is basically what "<code>this</code>" refers to in your function). This can be very useful in JavaScript and AS2 because scope isn't generally maintained. </li>
<li><b>useParam</b> <i>: Boolean</i> - if <code>true</code>, an event object will be generated and fed to the callback each time the event occurs. The event is a generic object and has two properties: <code>type</code> (always <code>"tick"</code>) and <code>target</code> which refers to the ticker instance. The default for <code>useParam</code> is <code>false</code> because it improves performance.</li>
<li><b>priority</b> <i>: Integer</i> - influences the order in which the listeners are called. Listeners with lower priorities are called after ones with higher priorities.</li>
</ol>
</p>
<p><b>Advanced example (JavaScript and AS2):</b></p><div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
//add listener that requests an event object parameter, binds scope to the current scope (this), and sets priority to 1 so that it is called before any other listeners that had a priority lower than 1...
TweenLite.ticker.addEventListener("tick", myFunction, this, true, 1);
function myFunction(event) {
//executes on every tick after the core engine updates
}
//to remove the listener later...
TweenLite.ticker.removeEventListener("tick", myFunction);
</pre></div>
<p><b>AS3</b></p>
<p>The AS3 version uses the standard <code>EventDispatcher.addEventListener()</code> syntax which
basically allows you to define a priority and whether or not to use weak references (see Adobe's
docs for details).</p>
<p><b>Advanced example [AS3 only]:</b></p><div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
import flash.events.Event;
//add listener with weak reference (standard syntax - notice the 5th parameter is true)
TweenLite.ticker.addEventListener("tick", myFunction, false, 0, true);
function myFunction(event:Event):void {
//executes on every tick after the core engine updates
}
//to remove the listener later...
TweenLite.ticker.removeEventListener("tick", myFunction);

Static method for creating a TweenLite instance that tweens backwards -
you define the <b>BEGINNING</b> values and the current values are used
as the destination values which is great for doing things like animating objects
onto the screen because you can set them up initially the way you want them to look
at the end of the tween and then animate in from elsewhere.
<p><b>NOTE:</b> By default, <code>immediateRender</code> is <code>true</code> in
<code>from()</code> tweens, meaning that they immediately render their starting state
regardless of any delay that is specified. You can override this behavior by passing
<code>immediateRender:false</code> in the <code>vars</code> parameter so that it will
wait to render until the tween actually begins (often the desired behavior when inserting
into TimelineLite or TimelineMax instances). To illustrate the default behavior, the
following code will immediately set the <code>alpha</code> of <code>mc</code>
to 0 and then wait 2 seconds before tweening the <code>alpha</code> back to 1 over
the course of 1.5 seconds:</p>
<p><code>
TweenLite.from(mc, 1.5, {alpha:0, delay:2});
</code></p>
<p>Since the <code>target</code> parameter can also be an array of objects, the following
code will tween the alpha property of mc1, mc2, and mc3 from a value of 0 simultaneously:</p>
<div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
TweenLite.from([mc1, mc2, mc3], 1.5, {alpha:0});
</pre></div>
<p>Even though 3 objects are animating, there is still only one tween created.
In order to stagger or offset the start times of each object animating, please see
the <code>staggerFrom()</code> method of TimelineLite or TweenMax.</p>
<p>For simple sequencing, you can use the <code>delay</code> special property
(like <code>TweenLite.from(mc, 1, {alpha:0, delay:0.5})</code>),
but it is highly recommended that you consider using TimelineLite (or TimelineMax)
for all but the simplest sequencing tasks. It has an identical <code>from()</code> method
that allows you to append tweens one-after-the-other and then control the entire sequence
as a whole. You can even have the tweens overlap as much as you want.</p>

and ending values (as opposed to <code>to()</code> and <code>from()</code> tweens which are
based on the target's current values at one end or the other).
<p><b>NOTE</b>: Only put starting values in the <code>fromVars</code> parameter - all
special properties for the tween (like onComplete, onUpdate, delay, etc.) belong in the <code>toVars</code>
parameter. </p>
<p>Since the <code>target</code> parameter can also be an array of objects, the following
code will tween the x property of mc1, mc2, and mc3 from 0 to 100 simultaneously:</p>
<div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
TweenLite.fromTo([mc1, mc2, mc3], 1, {x:0}, {x:100});
</pre></div>
<p>Even though 3 objects are animating, there is still only one tween created.
In order to stagger or offset the start times of each object animating, please see
the <code>staggerFromTo()</code> method of TimelineLite or TweenMax.</p>
<p>For simple sequencing, you can use the <code>delay</code> special property
(like <code>TweenLite.fromTo(mc, 1, {x:0}, {x:100, delay:0.5})</code>),
but it is highly recommended that you consider using TimelineLite (or TimelineMax)
for all but the simplest sequencing tasks. It has an identical <code>fromTo()</code> method
that allows you to append tweens one-after-the-other and then control the entire sequence
as a whole. You can even have the tweens overlap as much as you want.</p>

Returns an array containing all the tweens of a particular target (or group of targets) that have not
been released for garbage collection yet which typically happens within a few seconds after the tween completes.
For example, <code>TweenLite.getTweensOf(myObject)</code> returns an array of all tweens
of <code>myObject</code>, even tweens that haven't begun yet. <code>TweenLite.getTweensOf([myObject1, myObject2]);</code>
will return a condensed array of the tweens of <code>myObject1</code> plus all the tweens
of <code>myObject2</code> combined into one array with duplicates removed.
<p>Since the method only finds tweens that haven't been released for garbage collection, if you create a tween
and then let it finish and then a while later try to find it with <code>getTweensOf()</code>, it may not be found
because it was released by the engine for garbage collection. Remember, one of the best parts of GSAP is that it
saves you from the headache of managing gc. Otherwise, you'd need to manually dispose each tween you create, making
things much more cumbersome.</p>

Clears any initialization data (like starting/ending values in tweens) which can be useful if, for example,
you want to restart a tween without reverting to any previously recorded starting values. When you <code>invalidate()</code>
an animation, it will be re-initialized the next time it renders and its <code>vars</code> object will be re-parsed.
The timing of the animation (duration, startTime, delay) will not be affected.
<p>Another example would be if you have a <code>TweenMax(mc, 1, {x:100, y:100})</code> that ran when mc.x and mc.y
were initially at 0, but now mc.x and mc.y are 200 and you want them tween to 100 again, you could simply
<code>invalidate()</code> the tween and <code>restart()</code> it. Without invalidating first, restarting it
would cause the values jump back to 0 immediately (where they started when the tween originally began).
When you invalidate a TimelineLite/TimelineMax, it automatically invalidates all of its children.</p>

Immediately kills all of the delayedCalls to a particular function. If, for example,
you want to kill all delayedCalls to <code>myFunction</code>, you'd do this:
<p><code>
TweenLite.killDelayedCallsTo(myFunction);
</code></p>
<p>Since a delayedCall is just a tween that uses the function/callback as both its <code>target</code>
and its <code>onComplete</code>, <code>TweenLite.killTweensOf(myFunction)</code> produces exactly the
same result as <code>TweenLite.killDelayedCallsTo(myFunction)</code>.</p>
<p>This method affects all delayedCalls that were created using <code>TweenLite.delayedCall()</code>
or <code>TweenMax.delayedCall()</code> or the <code>call()</code> or <code>addCallback()</code> methods
of TimelineLite or TimelineMax. Basically, any tween whose target is the function you supply will
be killed.</p>

Kills all the tweens (or specific tweening properties) of a particular object or delayedCalls
to a particular function. If, for example, you want to kill all tweens of <code>myObject</code>,
you'd do this:
<p><code>
TweenLite.killTweensOf(myObject);
</code></p>
<p>To kill only particular tweening properties of the object, use the second parameter.
For example, if you only want to kill all the tweens of <code>myObject.alpha</code> and
<code>myObject.x</code>, you'd do this:</p>
<p><code>
TweenLite.killTweensOf(myObject, {alpha:true, x:true});
</code></p>
<p>To kill all the delayedCalls that were created like <code>TweenLite.delayedCall(5, myFunction);</code>,
you can simply call <code>TweenLite.killTweensOf(myFunction);</code> because delayedCalls
are simply tweens that have their <code>target</code> and <code>onComplete</code> set to
the same function (as well as a <code>delay</code> of course).</p>
<p><code>killTweensOf()</code> affects tweens that haven't begun yet too. If, for example,
a tween of <code>myObject</code> has a <code>delay</code> of 5 seconds and
<code>TweenLite.killTweensOf(mc)</code> is called 2 seconds after the tween was created,
it will still be killed even though it hasn't started yet. </p>

Immediately sets properties of the target accordingly - essentially a zero-duration to() tween with a more
intuitive name. So the following lines produce identical results:
<div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
TweenLite.set(myObject, {x:100, y:50, alpha:0});
TweenLite.to(myObject, 0, {x:100, y:50, alpha:0});
</pre></div>
<p>And of course you can use an array to set the properties of multiple targets at the same time, like:</p>
<div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
TweenLite.set([obj1, obj2, obj3], {x:100, y:50, alpha:0});

Static method for creating a TweenLite instance that animates to the specified destination values
(from the current values). The following lines of code all produce identical results:
<div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {x:100});
var myTween = new TweenLite(mc, 1, {x:100});
var myTween = TweenLite.to(mc, 1, {x:100});
</pre></div>
<p>Each line above will tween the <code>"x"</code> property of the <code>mc</code> object
to a value of 100 over the coarse of 1 second. They each use a slightly different syntax,
all of which are valid. If you don't need to store a reference of the tween, just use the
static <code>TweenLite.to( )</code> call.</p>
<p>Since the <code>target</code> parameter can also be an array of objects, the following
code will tween the x property of mc1, mc2, and mc3 to a value of 100 simultaneously:</p>
<div class="listing" version="3.0"><pre>
TweenLite.to([mc1, mc2, mc3], 1, {x:100});
</pre></div>
<p>Even though 3 objects are animating, there is still only one tween created.
In order to stagger or offset the start times of each object animating, please see
the <code>staggerTo()</code> method of TimelineLite or TweenMax.</p>
