AS3: How to use GTween?

I'm working with the latest version of the SDKs and FlashDevelop. So far, everything about my setup works fine, including external libraries. But when I use GTween, nothing happens. At all. I've tried several of the included samples and some of my own code, and all I get is a blank window or nothing moves, respectively. No errors, but also no action.

Could someone paste in some minimal code that just loads GTween and has it move a sprite? I'd like to have a known good for comparison so I can see if I'm missing something obvious or if there's something weird going on.

Thanks! :)

i just downloaded GTween and copied the com folder to my source...

... this worked fine:

package{
   import com.gskinner.motion.GTween;

   import flash.display.Sprite;

   public class GtTest extends Sprite{

     public function GtTest(){
           var ball:Sprite = new Sprite();
           ball.graphics.beginFill(0xFF0000);
           ball.graphics.drawCircle(300,300,10);
           addChild(ball);
           var myTween:GTween = new GTween(ball, 2, {x:100, y:100}, {swapValues:true});
      }
   }
}

hope that helps ;)

Are you sure you're compiling to the version of flashplayer you have? It's possible that your player needs to be updated. Hard to tell from this info what could be the problem.

Also GTween is ok, and I have it in one project and used it fairly recently, but there are better alternatives. (gtween was last updated in 2009)

I've been using eaze a lot, but I know most as3-ers flock to TweenLite (for a good reason).
