You say that the animation plays while something is loading. When the something
has loaded, stop the timer.

The timer is used to update the animation. I need to know when to stop it.

Why not just remove the timer?

I have an animation that is displayed using a timer while something is
loading. When this animation isn't visible, I don't want the timer to keep
updating the animation.
I've overridden the set visible( value:Boolean ) function and stop the
animation if visible is set to false; but the problem is that visible=false
doesn't happen e.g. if a ViewStack change occurs causing the animation to be
hidden.
If I check the .visible flag in the timer event I see that the component
is still visible (but it's not displayed since it's hidden). Checking with
"Show redraw regions" confirms that it is running in the background.
