AnimationDirection

Updated In 6 Graphic

AnimationDirection
is an option which specifies the direction to run an animation.

MORE INFORMATION

AnimationDirection is an option for Animate, ListAnimate, Animator and Cell.

Possible settings are:

	Forward	continually run forward
	Backward	continually run backward
	ForwardBackward	continually run forward, then backward

When used as an option to the first cell in a sequence of selected cells, AnimationDirection specifies the direction in which to run animations involving those cells.

AnimationDirection->Forward specifies that the animation should run through successive selected graphics cells in the order that they appear in the notebook, and should then start again at the first cell.

AnimationDirection->Backward specifies that the reverse order should be used.

AnimationDirection->ForwardBackward specifies that the animation should run from the first cell to the last, and should then reverse back to the first cell again.
