how to cancel a animation and put an another

is there a way to stop a scale animation ? because all I have coded for my game is based on this principle

local box = display.newRect(100,100,10,10) local text = display.newText("", 250,100,native.systemFontBold,30) local t = transition.scaleBy(box, {time = 10000, xScale=10, yScale=10}) local seconds = 1 local function killIt() &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; print(box.xScale) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; seconds = seconds + 1 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; text.text = seconds &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if box.xScale \> 4 then &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; transition.cancel( t ) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; end end timer.performWithDelay(1000, killIt, 0)

This worked for me. Perhaps you can compare and figure out what’s different.

yes it’s work i understand that wiht the print(box.scale)the function includes when to intervene

thanks and good night

hello sorry to bother you again …

I do not understand why my argument does not work … yet it is logical.

If time = 800 then you stopped the scalemin function but it does not work … you know tell me why?

thank you in advance

local box = display.newRect(100,100,20,20) local text = display.newText("", 250,100,native.systemFontBold,30) local t = transition.scaleBy(box, {time = 1000, xScale=10, yScale=10}) local move = transition.to(box, {time=3000, x=300, y=200}) local seconds = 1 local function scalemin() &nbsp; transition.scaleBy(box, {tag=scall, time = 1000, xScale=-0.5, yScale=-1}) end local function killIt() &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; print(box.xScale) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; seconds = seconds + 1 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; text.text = seconds &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if box.xScale \> 4 then &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; transition.cancel( t ) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; transition.cancel( move) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; scalemin() &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if time = 800 then &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; transition.cancel(scalemin) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; end &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; end end timer.performWithDelay(1000, killIt, 0)

even this should work and no??

if seconds \> 4 then &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; transition.cancel( scall ) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; end

The tags are strings so should be surrounded by quotes. … tag = “scall” … transition.cancel(“scall”) … etc

Then it should work.

Edit: I mean it should work after doing your _ seconds > 4 _ modification and fixing the tags.

_ time = 4000 _ does not work. You have not defined variable _ time _ anywhere.

thank you …so sometimes we search…and it’s a stupid mistake

espace3d · July 2, 2014, 6:54pm

pfouuuu it’s hard… one hour on that …
now i don’t understand why it doesn’t work

when my grid is displayed perfectly on the screen
You can not compare the value of a grid?

local function comparesscale() print(grille[2][4].yScale) if grille[2][4].yScale \> -0.1 then display.newRect(100,100,100,100) end end

Nobody ?

You need to show more code. What is in those array cells?

this:

display.newRect(100,100,100,100)

creates a new rectangle, but it doesn’t store the reference to it, so you have no way of accessing it afterwards

hi, i have started a new topic where there is the full code :
