TWEEN
Tweening is a feature that helps us to make animation process easier and faster. It is used for
some specific kind of animations by calculating and generating some frames for you between an
initial and a final point. Some important points about the tween.
There should be at least one object in the scene to use a tween.
One kind of tween can be applied for every
object.
If an object is part of a tween, then that
object cannot be edited as a vector path.
There are many types of tween in Tupi 2D:
motion, rotation, scale, shear, opacity and
coloring. Let us learn about these tweens one
