Command History

Available since v3.7


Allows you to stop any active animation; if the animation is not active then nothing happens!


Syntax:

stopAnimation(animation)


Example 1: basic stop animation method

--[[
!important: you must take care when using this method that you don't have multiple instances of animations with the same name otherwise it will not work correctly!
--]]

-- shortened get animation method; !important: see comment above!
stopAnimation("Animations[animation_name]")


-- full get animation method; !recommended
stopAnimation("Scenes[scene_name].SceneObjects[object_name].ObjectAnimations[animation_name]")

Example 2: stop animation via a variable

-- you can of course use variables with animations stored in them instead!
local anim = getObject("Animations[animation_name]")
stopAnimation(anim)
