TGML Sequences: <Sequence>

Sequence plays a sequence of graphical elements, for example, shapes, text, images, as a 'movie'.

The Interval attribute controls the "frame rate". Interval specifies for how long, measured in seconds, each graphical element is visible. The sequence can be started and stopped by setting the Animation attribute to "Start" and "Stop".

Sequence belongs to the immediate parent container element and controls the visibility of the container's graphical elements.

Attribute	Type	Description
Animation	Animation	Starts and stops the animation in Dynamic mode. Default: "Start" Inheritable: No Animatable: Yes
Interval	Double	Specifies for how long, measured in seconds, each of the shapes in the container is to be visible. Inheritable: Yes Animatable: Yes

Example of TGML code containing a Sequence element:

Copy

<TGML>
    <Group>
        <Sequence Interval="1"/>
        <Rectangle Top="50.0" Left="50.0" Width="100" Height="100" Fill="#00FF00" Stroke="#000000" Visibility="Visible"/> 
        <Rectangle Top="50.0" Left="50.0" Width="100" Height="100" Fill="#FFFF00" Stroke="#000000" Visibility="Hidden"/> 
        <Rectangle Top="50.0" Left="50.0" Width="100" Height="100" Fill="#FF0000" Stroke="#000000" Visibility="Hidden"/> 
    </Group>
</TGML>

The example plays a sequence of three rectangles and the frame rate is set to one second. The Visibility attributes of the second and third rectangles are set to "Hidden" to hide them in Edit mode.
