I don't think, because braces are not required when the there is only one statement ended with semicolor:
//code if(something) doSomething(); // semicolon ends the scope here... //code ... the second brace was ending the myLeftHand() method. I think that that the problem with this line was that mcHandInstance2 was neither defined as a class property nor as a local variable. I think Beno does not see difference between local variables (google: "local variables" tutorial) and class properties (google: "class properties" tutorial). g Tuesday, December 08, 2009 (10:07:34 PM) Karl DeSaulniers wrote: > Well I know why this code was not working. >> if (e.target.currentFrame == 40) TweenMax.to(mcHandInstance2, 2, >> {x:200, startAt:{totalProgress:1}}).reverse(); >> } > Because it should read. >> if (e.target.currentFrame == 40) { TweenMax.to(mcHandInstance2, 2, >> {x:200, startAt:{totalProgress:1}}).reverse(); >> } > You missed the first "{" > Don know if that fixes everything or just this line. > Karl > Sent from losPhone > On Dec 8, 2009, at 1:18 PM, beno - <flashmeb...@gmail.com> wrote: >> On Tue, Dec 8, 2009 at 3:02 PM, Gregory Boudreaux <gjboudre...@fedex.com >> >wrote: >> >>> What is setting "e" in your code? >>> >> >> I have no idea.
