Animate a graphic object

Animate a graphic object

Add and configure number, sequential, or parallel animation properties to animate an object.
TIP: Animations do not change the actual property values of objects and are much more efficient than relying on scripts or tags to control the property values. For animation examples, download, extract, and open the project from AnimationsExample.zip.
  1. In
    Project view
    , select the object to animate.
  2. In
    Properties
    , at the top, select
    Add
    and then select either:
    • Number animation
      . Animate objects by changing the value to another value over specific time.
    • Sequential animation
      . Animate objects with a simple transition in the serial mode.
    • Parallel animation
      . Animate object with a simple transition in the parallel mode.
    TIP: You can also right-click a property that supports animations and select
    New
    Animation type
    .
  3. (optional) To combine different animations for the same object, repeat 2.
  4. Configure animation properties. See Animation properties.
