Can't cancel a tween by id about leantween

[dentedpixel]

Hey Zeroc,

Thanks so much, I am glad you are liking the plugin. Let me know when the game is out, I am always interested to see what people are making with it.

removeTween is actually a method that is supposed to be used internally. I would have set the method to private, but I cannot since I need to access it from the LTDescr class. I know it's kind of messy, but I thought nobody would see the removeTween since it isn't mentioned in the docs :)

I added a comment, to make this more obvious..

The problem is with this function:
public static void cancel( GameObject gameObject, int uniqueId ){
if(uniqueId>=0){
init();
int backId = uniqueId & 0xFFFFFF;
int backType = uniqueId >> 24;
// Debug.Log("uniqueId:"+uniqueId+ " id:"+backId +" action:"+(TweenAction)backType + " tweens[id].type:"+tweens[backId].type);
if(tweens[backId].trans==null || (tweens[backId].trans.gameObject == gameObject && tweens[backId].type==(TweenAction)backType))
removeTween(backId);
}
}

I had to rewrite the funcion to make it work:
public static void cancel( GameObject gameObject, int uniqueId ){
if(uniqueId>=0){
init();
Transform trans = gameObject.transform;
for(int i = 0; i < tweenMaxSearch; i++){
if(tweens[i].trans==trans)
{
if (i == uniqueId)
{
removeTween(i);
}
}
}
}
}

hmmm, that works? the uniqueId shouldn't equal the iterator (the i variable), at least not necessarily.

Could you give me an example of how this cancel is being used in your code? Maybe email would be best to send files back and forth dentedpixel at gmail.com

Thanks!

I got the same probleme to cancel a delayedCall

    if (timer != null) {
        timer.cancel ();
        LeanTween.removeTween (timer.uniqueId);
        LeanTween.cancel (gameObject, timer.uniqueId);

    }
    timer = LeanTween.delayedCall (gameObject, TIME_TRANSITION, gotoDragAndDrop);

I can't cancel this timer. Like your see I tryed 3 different methods.
Actually I just want to reset the timer but I doesn't work either.

Hey Benoit,

I would just save the uniqueId at the start of the tween like:

var id:int = LeanTween.delayedCall(gameObject, 1f, someCall);

// later
LeanTween.cancel(gameObject, id);

If you do it that way it should work...

LeanTween.removeTween is only supposed to be used internally from the engine.

[BenoitFreslon]

Thanks but delayedCall retunrs a LYDescr type not an int.

Cannot implicitly convert type LTDescr' toint'

Is it possible to reset a delayedCall ?

Thanks.

[dentedpixel]

Oh sorry, that was a typo, I meant:

var id:int = LeanTween.delayedCall(gameObject, 1f, someCall).id;

That way you shouldn't get an error. Canceling the delayedCall should effectively reset the delayedCall. Or you can cancle all tweens on a gameObject like:

LeanTween.cancel( gameObject );

[BenoitFreslon]

Ok Thanks it's work! ;)

The method reset() in the LTDescr can reset (restart) a delayedCall?

Thanks.

[dentedpixel]

Awesome.
No that reset method is only used internally to clear out old values before
re-using the tween for another purpose. I mean it might work actually, but
that's not what it is intended for, best to use LeanTween.cancel :)

I also got into this hole (
I think it's not expected behaviour when "pointer" (LTDescr) updates, but it depends of programming background.

hi @dentedpixel
I tried your solution, OnDisable() and I received Error: `IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array ID.```

So can I use way as an alternative method???

        private LTSeq seqSample;
        //Dosomething with Tween
        public  void DoSomething();
        private void OnDisable()
        {
           //Triggerpoint I want cancel:
            seqSample = null;
        }
