// The tween transition class is imported.

// This uses the "wilcard" symbol "*" to imaport all six of the easing classes in a package.
// This package contains multiple classes in a single directory folder.

// A new tween is contructed and defined using the tween class syntax:
// Tween (object, property, function, begin, end, duration, useSeconds).

new Tween(ball_mc, "_y", Bounce.easeOut, ball_mc._y, 250, 3, true);

// The object being tweened is ball_mc.
// The property "_y" indeicates the vertical position of the movie clip is to be tweened.
// Bounce indicates that the ball will bounce moving up and down and reducing its height after each bounce.
// easeout dicates to the movie clip that its motion deccelerates toward the end of the transition.
// ball_mc_y sets the initial position of the movie clip Ball_mc as the stating point for the transition.
// 250 sets the final coordinates of the movie clip.
// 3 sets the duration of the animation to 3 units.
// true uses boolean logic to set the units for the duration fo the tween to seconds.

// This transition acts only on the horizontal position of the movie clip.

new Tween(ball_mc, "_x", Regular.easeOut,ball_mc._x, 400, 4, true);

// Regular.easeOut Sets the movie clip to gently deccelerate toward the end of the transition.
// This subtle easing gives the effect of friction slowing the ball horizontally.
// note that the horizontal motion continues for an extra second. This gives a simple slide effect.
