MethodTweener
=============

**Inherits:** :ref:`Tweener<class_Tweener>` **<** :ref:`RefCounted<class_RefCounted>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Interpolates an abstract value and supplies it to a method called over time.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

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

**MethodTweener** is similar to a combination of :ref:`CallbackTweener<class_CallbackTweener>` and :ref:`PropertyTweener<class_PropertyTweener>`. It calls a method providing an interpolated value as a parameter. See :ref:`Tween.tween_method<class_Tween_method_tween_method>` for more usage information.

The tweener will finish automatically if the callback's target object is freed.

\ **Note:** :ref:`Tween.tween_method<class_Tween_method_tween_method>` is the only correct way to create **MethodTweener**. Any **MethodTweener** created manually will not function correctly.

Method Descriptions
-------------------

.. _class_MethodTweener_method_set_delay:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`MethodTweener<class_MethodTweener>` **set_delay** **(** :ref:`float<class_float>` delay **)**

Sets the time in seconds after which the **MethodTweener** will start interpolating. By default there's no delay.

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

----

.. _class_MethodTweener_method_set_ease:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`MethodTweener<class_MethodTweener>` **set_ease** **(** :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>` ease **)**

Sets the type of used easing from :ref:`EaseType<enum_Tween_EaseType>`. If not set, the default easing is used from the :ref:`Tween<class_Tween>` that contains this Tweener.

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

----

.. _class_MethodTweener_method_set_trans:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`MethodTweener<class_MethodTweener>` **set_trans** **(** :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>` trans **)**

Sets the type of used transition from :ref:`TransitionType<enum_Tween_TransitionType>`. If not set, the default transition is used from the :ref:`Tween<class_Tween>` that contains this Tweener.

.. |virtual| replace:: :abbr:`virtual (This method should typically be overridden by the user to have any effect.)`
.. |const| replace:: :abbr:`const (This method has no side effects. It doesn't modify any of the instance's member variables.)`
.. |vararg| replace:: :abbr:`vararg (This method accepts any number of arguments after the ones described here.)`
.. |constructor| replace:: :abbr:`constructor (This method is used to construct a type.)`
.. |static| replace:: :abbr:`static (This method doesn't need an instance to be called, so it can be called directly using the class name.)`
