Hello @Engineer ,

You simply need to run an animation. For example when you start the activity, use the triggeer and in the visual field just select "Start Animation".

I hope I have been helpful.

You should everything you need to know to get started in the documentation. Since no others would be involved in the animation you can skip the section on "Components".

To start/stop the animation you could insert the respective task in the task sequence.

But as José suggests, its simpler to instead start/stop the animation in triggers. Instead of the processor, you can also use the "On Start/Finish Task" triggers of the operator. See the animation class for the relevant methods. By passing in parameters you can control how fast the animation runs and how often it repeats.

In the attached example I use the "UseTablet" animation that is available for operators by default.

Hi Jose and Felix

Thank you for instructions. That was very helpful

By the way where can I see other animations of operator? I want to replace another animation which is as similar as possible to our real operator 's movement


Thank you!
