Showing a layer after a set amount of time

May 15, 2013

Hi folks.

Is it possible to show a layer after a set amont of time? For example, if there is no activity on the base layer after say 20 seconds, I'd like to show/display a new layer with instructions about moving on.

I can't see how a Trigger would do that.

Thanks!

Chris.

You could add a shape on the base layer (place it off screen so that it is not visible) at the 20 second mark on the timeline.

Add a trigger to the shape that says show layer X when the timeline starts.

This will trigger the layer to display when the timeline reaches the 20 second mark.
