Smoothly animates a node's properties over time.

Description
-----------

Tweens are useful for animations requiring a numerical property to be interpolated over a range of values. The name *tween* comes from *in-betweening*, an animation technique where you specify *keyframes* and the computer interpolates the frames that appear between them.

\ **Tween** is more suited than :ref:`AnimationPlayer<class_AnimationPlayer>` for animations where you don't know the final values in advance. For example, interpolating a dynamically-chosen camera zoom value is best done with a **Tween** node; it would be difficult to do the same thing with an :ref:`AnimationPlayer<class_AnimationPlayer>` node.

Here is a brief usage example that makes a 2D node move smoothly between two positions:

::

    var tween = get_node("Tween")
    tween.interpolate_property($Node2D, "position",
            Vector2(0, 0), Vector2(100, 100), 1,
            Tween.TRANS_LINEAR, Tween.EASE_IN_OUT)
    tween.start()

Many methods require a property name, such as ``"position"`` above. You can find the correct property name by hovering over the property in the Inspector. You can also provide the components of a property directly by using ``"property:component"`` (e.g. ``position:x``), where it would only apply to that particular component.

Many of the methods accept ``trans_type`` and ``ease_type``. The first accepts an :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` constant, and refers to the way the timing of the animation is handled (see `easings.net <https://easings.net/>`__ for some examples). The second accepts an :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` constant, and controls where the ``trans_type`` is applied to the interpolation (in the beginning, the end, or both). If you don't know which transition and easing to pick, you can try different :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` constants with :ref:`EASE_IN_OUT<class_Tween_constant_EASE_IN_OUT>`, and use the one that looks best.

\ **Note:** Tween methods will return ``false`` if the requested operation cannot be completed.

\ **Note:** For an alternative method of tweening, that doesn't require using nodes, see :ref:`SceneTreeTween<class_SceneTreeTween>`.

Follows ``method`` of ``object`` and applies the returned value on ``target_method`` of ``target``, beginning from ``initial_val`` for ``duration`` seconds, ``delay`` later. Methods are called with consecutive values.

Use :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` for ``trans_type`` and :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` for ``ease_type`` parameters. These values control the timing and direction of the interpolation. See the class description for more information.

Animates ``property`` of ``object`` from ``initial_val`` to ``final_val`` for ``duration`` seconds, ``delay`` seconds later. Setting the initial value to ``null`` uses the current value of the property.

Use :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` for ``trans_type`` and :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` for ``ease_type`` parameters. These values control the timing and direction of the interpolation. See the class description for more information.

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **remove_all** **(** **)**

Stops animation and removes all tweens.

.. _class_Tween_method_reset:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **reset** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object, :ref:`String<class_String>` key="" **)**

Resets a tween to its initial value (the one given, not the one before the tween), given its object and property/method pair. By default, all tweens are reset, unless ``key`` is specified.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_Tween_method_reset_all:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **reset_all** **(** **)**

Resets all tweens to their initial values (the ones given, not those before the tween).

.. _class_Tween_method_resume:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **resume** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object, :ref:`String<class_String>` key="" **)**

Continues animating a stopped tween, given its object and property/method pair. By default, all tweens are resumed, unless ``key`` is specified.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_Tween_method_resume_all:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **resume_all** **(** **)**

Continues animating all stopped tweens.

----

.. _class_Tween_method_seek:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **seek** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` time **)**

Sets the interpolation to the given ``time`` in seconds.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_Tween_method_set_active:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

void **set_active** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` active **)**

Activates/deactivates the tween. See also :ref:`stop_all<class_Tween_method_stop_all>` and :ref:`resume_all<class_Tween_method_resume_all>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_Tween_method_start:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **start** **(** **)**

Starts the tween. You can define animations both before and after this.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_Tween_method_stop:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **stop** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object, :ref:`String<class_String>` key="" **)**

Stops a tween, given its object and property/method pair. By default, all tweens are stopped, unless ``key`` is specified.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_Tween_method_stop_all:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **stop_all** **(** **)**

Stops animating all tweens.

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **targeting_method** **(** :ref:`Object<class_Object>` object, :ref:`String<class_String>` method, :ref:`Object<class_Object>` initial, :ref:`String<class_String>` initial_method, :ref:`Variant<class_Variant>` final_val, :ref:`float<class_float>` duration, :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` trans_type=0, :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` ease_type=2, :ref:`float<class_float>` delay=0 **)**

Animates ``method`` of ``object`` from the value returned by ``initial_method`` to ``final_val`` for ``duration`` seconds, ``delay`` seconds later. Methods are animated by calling them with consecutive values.

Use :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` for ``trans_type`` and :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` for ``ease_type`` parameters. These values control the timing and direction of the interpolation. See the class description for more information.

Animates ``property`` of ``object`` from the current value of the ``initial_val`` property of ``initial`` to ``final_val`` for ``duration`` seconds, ``delay`` seconds later.

Use :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` for ``trans_type`` and :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` for ``ease_type`` parameters. These values control the timing and direction of the interpolation. See the class description for more information.
