Play ImageSequence

Overview

The Play ImageSequence Node.

The Play ImageSequence Node starts and plays through an ImageSequence at the specified time frames. The Start Frame value must be a smaller number than the End Framevalue. When ``PlayDirectionis set toBackward`, the ImageSequence will be played in reverse.

Scope: Scene, Function, Prefab.

Attributes

The Play ImageSequence Node Attributes.

Attribute	Type	Description
Start Frame	Int	The selected start frame, if none is received in the Input Socket. When set to $-1$, the start frame is the very first frame of the ImageSequence. Note that it should always be set to a lower value than End Frame.
End Frame	Int	The selected end frame, if none is received in the Input Socket. When set to $-1$, the end frame is the very last frame of the ImageSequence. Note that it should always be set to a greater value than Start Frame.
PlayMode	Drop-down	The PlayMode type. Can be either Frames per Second (frame rate) or Time (duration).
FPS	Int (when PlayMode is set to FPS)	The number of Frames per Second, if one is not provided in the Input Socket.
Duration	Float (when PlayMode is set to Time)	The duration, in seconds, of the ImageSequence, if one is not provided in the Input Socket.
Interpolation Mode	Drop-down	The Interpolation Mode type. Can be either Constant or Linear.
Loop Mode	Dropdown	The looping type, if one is not provided in the Input Socket. Can be Alternate, None, or Repeat.
PlayDirection	Dropdown	The direction in which the ImageSequence plays, if one is not provided in the Input Socket. Can be Backward or Forward.

Inputs

Input	Type	Description
Pulse Input (►)	Pulse	A standard Input Pulse, to trigger the execution of the Node.
Object ID	ObjectID	The ID of the target Object.
Start Frame	Int	The selected start frame. When set to $-1$, the start frame is the very first frame of the ImageSequence. Note that it should always be set to a lower value than End Frame.
End Frame	Int	The selected end frame. When set to $-1$, the end frame is the very last frame of the ImageSequence. Note that it should always be set to a greater value than Start Frame.
Speed	Int or Float (depending on selected PlayMode)	The Frames per Second if PlayMode is set to FPS. The duration in seconds if PlayMode is set to Time.
Loop Mode	String	The looping type. Can be Alternate, None, or Repeat.
PlayDirection	String	The direction in which the ImageSequence plays. Can be Backward or Forward.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
Pulse Output (►)	Pulse	A standard Output Pulse, to move onto the next Node along the Logic Branch, once this Node has finished its execution.
