Replay animation on Layer
Hello timgrice
The explanation is quite simple. With what you've set up, you display the “Crystal” layer the first time you click on “More” in the “Uncrystallized funfs...” rectangle, and the animation plays. But on this layer, you can make the other layers appear WITHOUT MASKING this one. In this way, it is always “displayed” but hidden by the others. When you call it up from another layer, it simply “reappears over the others”, but without replaying its chronology, and therefore without replaying its animation. Am I clear? You need to “hide” it before you can “display” it again. Look in your (modified) attached file at the “Crystal” layer: 3 more triggers to hide the layer NB: there's a way of simplifying the whole screen, I think. I hope I've helped you.
Incidentally, timgrice and I apologize if I'm interfering 🙏, but there was something itchy in your file. Too complicated, in my opinion 😅. Allow me to submit a simplified version. I keep only 4 triggers (that's enough), and I remove 75% of what's present on the layers and all the triggers. And it works. Please note that in each layer's options, I check “Hide other slide layers” (see my first post).
Explanation: your 4 “More” buttons on the base layer already do all the work. No need to repeat them on the layers.
Does this work for you?
