Description

1) Add the following code to a new projects app.js

var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow({  
    backgroundColor:'#fff'
});

var view = Titanium.UI.createView({
   backgroundColor:'red'
});
var animation = Titanium.UI.createAnimation();
animation.backgroundColor = 'black';
animation.duration = 2000;
animation.addEventListener('complete',function()
{
   animation.removeEventListener('complete',this);
   animation.backgroundColor = 'orange';
   view.animate(animation);
});
view.animate(animation);

win.add(view);
win.open();

2) Run the application Expected result: The view will animate from red to black to orange. Actual results: The view animates from red to black. It never transitions to orange. Notes: The code sample is from the following doc: http://developer.appcelerator.com/apidoc/mobile/latest/Titanium.UI.Animation-object Here is another example which is perhaps easier to see:

var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow({  
    backgroundColor:'#fff'
});

var view = Titanium.UI.createView({
   backgroundColor:'white'
});
var animation = Titanium.UI.createAnimation();
animation.backgroundColor = 'red';
animation.duration = 4000;
animation.addEventListener('complete',function()
{
   animation.removeEventListener('complete',this);
   animation.backgroundColor = 'black';
   view.animate(animation);
});
view.animate(animation);

win.add(view);
win.open();

Here the view should go from white to red to black, but only goes from white to red.
