Thought Will Rise

Here is another simple example using fuse to tween a movie clip. It is pretty simple, but it illustrates how easy it is to tween a clip with 1 line of code. The code draws all of the visual assets on the stage so just copt the code below in the first frame of a new FLA and your off and running!

And here is the code:

=============================================================================
EXPLANATION:
Load in the Fuse classes.
Register FuseItem for object syntax and Penner’s easing equations.
Draw a box on the stage.
When you click the start button the box moves to the right with an elastic tween ending
at 400 pix.
