Tween.timeScale

Description

A static global modifier for the speed at which all Tweens take place. It defaults to 1, which does not affect any Tween speed. If it is set to a number greater than 1, it acts as fast-forward. Setting to a number less than 1 acts as a slow motion. This is particularly useful as a debugging tool, allowing you to watch animations take place in fine detail, or speeding through animations you are not interested in.

Note that this alters Tween speed globally, for all Tweens. If you want to alter the speed of a particular Tween, use the setDuration() method.

Example

import megamu.shapetween.*;

Tween ani;
void setup(){
  ani = new Tween(null, 2);
  ani.repeat();
  ani.start();
}

void draw(){
  background(255);
  ani.tick();
  ellipse(ani.time()*width, ani.position()*height, 4, 4);
}

void mouseDragged(){
  Tween.timeScale = lerp( 0.1, 3, norm(mouseX, 0, width) );
}
