Add Scripts to Tasks

When you add scripts to TimeLiner tasks, the script events are ignored, and the script actions are run regardless of the events.

Using scripts enables you to control how the animation will play (forwards, backwards, a segment at a time and so on). You can also use scripts to change the camera viewpoints for individual tasks, or play several animations at the same time.

Note: Before you simulate your schedule, be sure to enable animation scripts in your file, by clicking the Enable Scripts button on the Animation tab >Scripts panel.

To add a script to a task:

1. Click Home tab > Tools panel > TimeLiner .
2. On the Tasks tab, click the task you want to add a script to, and use the horizontal scroll bar to locate the Script column.
3. Click the drop-down arrow in the Script field, and select the desired script to run with this task.
