Motion tween via code not timeline

Using createjs

Hi, I know how to create a motion tween via the timeline but I would like to do it via code. It would be a whole lot neater as I have to tween various objects and I hate long timelines. 

I was thinking of creating an empty movieclip - well transparent just as a way of helping with position. Then I would tween the mc to the transparent mc. I seem to remember it was possible via a tween engine but I'm not sure. Googled but came up short.

Oh dear - it's for AS3 not createjs.

 

//import necesarry classes
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
 
//create our timer
var timer:Timer = new Timer(3000);
 
//start the timer
timer.start();
 
//create our tween
var tween:Tween = new Tween(square, "x", Strong.easeInOut, square.x, 300, 2, true);
 
//prevent tween from immediately tweening
tween.stop();
 
//add an event listener to timer
timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, startTween);
 
//create the function startTween
function startTween(event:TimerEvent):void {
    //make tween start
    tween.start();
}

Yep, I didn't search for createjs tween but rather adobe animate tween.

Thanks

I have set up a simple tween and I get no errors in the console but my circle doesn't move.

var Circle = new lib.circle();

var clickHandler = tween.bind(this);
this.btn.addEventListener("click", clickHandler);
   
function tween()
{ 
   createjs.Tween.get(Circle)
    //.wait(500)
	//.to({alpha:0, visible:false}, 1000)
	//.to({x:400}, 1000)
    //.call(handleComplete);
	console.log("tween() was called")
	
	//use he override parameter so we don't have to remove the eventlistener. Note that the parameter goes with the object called
	createjs.Tween.get(Circle, {override:true})
	.call(handleComplete)
	.to({x:100});
}

function handleComplete()
{ 
	console.log("handle complete called")
}

Nope - I got an email re: Did it solve your problem?

But no. I'm afraid I can't find the solution. Surely it's just a misplaced coma or something. I have tried.
