Animation timeline (Beta)

Drag entrance and exit transitions on one timeline, scrub through them, and choose hold or play-through.

Beta — available to organizations in early access. Ask us if you'd like to try it.

In the editor, open the Animate tab. Each layer has a row on the timeline with its entrance and exit.

  • Drag a transition to change when it starts, or its edges to change its length. Click anywhere on the ruler to scrub.
  • Hold until Off keeps the graphic on screen until you take it off. Play through runs in, holds for the set time and goes out on its own.
  • Click Hold position and drag the line to move the pause point. It turns solid while you edit and dashed once locked. Press Escape to lock it.
  • A wipe in to the right goes out to the left automatically.

Quick transition choices in a show's list use the same animation, so cloud, Local Hub and Camera outputs all play it the same way.
