Run two animations at the same time

Hi,

I am trying to animate two objects at the same time, one is a group with a motion path animation, the send is an arrow with a wipe exit animation.

Both animations are set to 1 sec.

I need them to perform their animation at the same time so as the group descends downth emotion path, the arrow disappears as well.

Thanks in advance

Roger

  • Exact timing is tough with the limited possibilities in the Storyline timeline. If you use GSAP and javascript for your animations however you can finetune any animation up to the millisecond.

      Thanks, I have found a clunky workaround that does the trick for now.

        Indeed..it can be done with default Storyline triggers. Clunky probably is the correct wording for it ;-) Not sure about your setup, but where i do think Storyline triggers and timeline fail... if you want to change timing later on...it becomes troublesome... lot of layers, triggers and timeline elements to check and change. Whereas a proper setup with Javascript it can be just changing 1 variable. And then thinking Storyline uses GSAP ( and probably GSAP timelines ) for all its animation..i find it really uncomprehensible that Articulate doesnot give its users that to use.
