Timing Object

Multiple objects Timing Shape

Represents timing properties for an animation effect.

Using the Timing object

To return a Timing object, use the Timing property of the AnimationBehavior or Effect object. The following example sets timing duration information for the main animation.

ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange(1).TimeLine _
   .MainSequence(1).Timing.Duration = 5

Use the following read/write properties of the Timing object to manipulate animation timing effects.

Use this...	To change this...
Accelerate	Percentage of the duration over which acceleration should take place
AutoReverse	Whether an effect should play forward and then reverse, thereby doubling the duration
Decelerate	Percentage of the duration over which acceleration should take place
Duration	Length of animation (in seconds)
RepeatCount	Number of times to repeat the animation
RepeatDuration	How long should the repeats last (in seconds)
Restart	Restart behavior of an animation node
RewindAtEnd	Whether an objects return to its beginning position after an effect has ended
SmoothStart	Whether an effect accelerates when it starts
SmoothEnd	Whether an effect decelerates when it ends
TriggerDelayTime	Delay time from when the trigger is enabled (in seconds)
TriggerShape	Which shape is associated with the timing effect
TriggerType	How the timing effect is triggered
