Animation Problem

Hello. I put this thread under Design Tools as I think it is a button property issue with TP4 Design 4. I have a multistate button (29 states) on a MVP8400 panel. The button was created using the animation wizard. The button sits on the splash "start up" page and is supposed to be animated. The button rotates a company logo as expected with the button view tool. It is not animated when using the G4 panel builder nor when loaded onto the actual touch panel. Am I missing something in the properties that the wizard did not address? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Eric

    How do you have the feedback properties set?

    Check, check, 1, 2

    Verify your properties if you want it rotating without any code.

    Hey Eric & Jeremiah,

    Thanks for the assistance. The auto repeat was set to yes, but I did not have the feedback to "always on".

    Thanks,

    One more idea.... set the feedback to channel. In your processor, set the channel to turn on when the panel is online (or turn it on at start up). This way, the logo will only spin if the panel is online and conceivably ready for use.

    Well thank you! The joys of working with Adobe Fireworks! ;)
