Reverse Interactive Animation?

[deborahbrancheau]

I’m trying to create an appliance garage door and I’ve got the first half of the animation working fine. But I want it to go in reverse when I click on it it a second time. Right now, it’s flipping to the back and them moving forward.

This is the first half of the animation: OnClick -> ANIMATEFAST(“RotX”,0,-90);ANIMATESLOW(“Y”,0,15);

Use an extra attribute that represents the state (eg. Closed or Open)
That attributes controls the parameters of the ANIMATION.

Different sequence on return

You’ll better use 'ANIMATECUSTOM" and add some attributes for controlling the time : [image] I have only controlled the time, but it’s morel likely that you would set the ‘easein’ and ‘out’ settings (ANIMATECUSTOM(“attr” ,time, easein, out, state1,…stateN) also with a variable.

Another method (similar) is to create a time line, or points where conditions dictate the movement
