Abstract
A system and method for creating and playing tweening animations allows a user to simply draw a graphic directional indicator, e.g., an arrow, in a computer environment to associate graphic objects with the graphic directional indicator and generate a tweening animation of at least one of the associated graphic objects. The tweening animation can be made to play automatically when the graphic directional indicator is activated or can be made to be controllable by a user-manipulable control device.
