| | BlitMask |
[AS3 only] A BlitMask is basically a rectangular Sprite that acts as a high-performance mask for a DisplayObject
by caching a bitmap version of it and blitting only the pixels that should be visible at any given time,
although its bitmapMode can be turned off to restore interactivity in the DisplayObject
whenever you want. |
| | FlexBlitMask |
[AS3 only] A FlexBlitMask is basically a rectangular UIComponent that acts as a high-performance mask for a DisplayObject
by caching a bitmap version of it and blitting only the pixels that should be visible at any given time,
although its bitmapMode can be turned off to restore interactivity in the DisplayObject
whenever you want. |
| | TimelineLite |
TimelineLite is a powerful sequencing tool that acts as a container for tweens and
other timelines, making it simple to control them as a whole and precisely manage their
timing in relation to each other. |
| | TimelineMax |
TimelineMax extends TimelineLite, offering exactly the same functionality plus useful
(but non-essential) features like repeat, repeatDelay, yoyo, currentLabel(), addCallback(),
removeCallback(), tweenTo(), tweenFromTo(), getLabelAfter(), getLabelBefore(),
getActive(), AS3 event dispatching (and probably more in the future). |
| | TweenLite |
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. |
| | TweenMax |
TweenMax extends TweenLite, adding many useful (but non-essential) features like repeat(),
repeatDelay(), yoyo(), AS3 event dispatching, updateTo(), pauseAll(), and more. |
| | TweenNano |
[AS3/AS2 only] TweenNano is a super-lightweight (2k in AS3 and 2.6k in AS2) version of TweenLite
and is only recommended for situations where you absolutely cannot afford the extra 4.7k that the normal
TweenLite engine would cost and your project doesn't require any plugins. |
