DESCRIPTION

An animation visual object provides a mechanism with which a sequence of images may be animated. When stored in a K2 KDF file, image frames may be organized down depth, time, or elements. Attributes offer control over the speed with which the image frames are changed, and the direction of the animation. Animations may run in a single loop (one pass through the frames), a continuous loop (continual forward passes through the frames), or an autoreverse loop (continual passes forward through the frames, first forwards, then backwards).
