Anyway to replay a layer?
I've created a layer that uses the timeline to show different options in a search field. When it gets to the end of the layer's timeline, I'd like the timeline to either repeat (loop) or have an option for the user to replay the 'animation' in the timeline.
Anyway to repeat/replay a layer?
Thanks,
Gary

@Barend You put me on the right path, but you're missing the final step! Had me scratching my head there , here it is for the viewers at home:
- define a trigger on 'SLIDE'; show layer 'ENDLESS' when variable 'rep_1' changes
Thanks Adam for sharing some additional information here that was able to allow you to get this working as needed. If you need anything else, please feel free to let us know.

What I have done to create a replay button for animation on a layer - which seems to work, although I am fairly new to Storyline - is add a button to the layer which hides and then shows the same layer again. I have changed the settings to the layer to reset to initial set on revisiting.
So far, that seems to do the trick for me!
Thanks Stephen for sharing that here - and if you're able to it's always good to share some screenshots or a copy of the .story file so that others can see how you set it up.

Hi Ashley,
Thanks for your reply. Here is a rough idea of what I did.
I have also learned something new when making it - all the cool icons for
buttons!Stephen
Hi Stephen,
If you respond via email your attachments/images, etc. won't be included in the thread. You'll need to visit this page to upload them here.

I am using a dial to jump to layers on a slide. when I revisit a layer the dial jumps positions at random but the layer is correct. ?????
Hi Keith! That sounds weird. Can you share your .story file here so we can see your setup?
Thanks!
