Find in the tabs below the documentation for both versions. {% tabs %} {% tab title="Scene" %} **Overview** ![The MoveTo Action Node.](/files/qmRDZhhZNt9AbDiXxORy) The **MoveTo Action Node** continuously modifies the `Position` of a [**Scene Object**](/incari-studio/objects-and-types/scene-objects.md) to the values specified in `To` for a given period of time, thus creating an **Animation**. Furthermore, visit the [**Actions Nodes**](/incari-studio/toolbox/actions.md) page for a general introduction to these **Nodes**, and [**Position**](/incari-studio/objects-and-types/attributes/common-attributes/transformation.md#position) for more detail about the `Position` **Attribute**.

This concept can be applied as well to a **Scene2D Object**. We start by [configuring the **Scene**](#scene-configuration), then [build the **Logic**](#logic), and finally show the [result](#final-result). ### Scene Configuration We consider a [**Scene**](/incari-studio/objects-and-types/project-objects/scene.md) with two [**Objects**](/incari-studio/objects-and-types/scene-objects.md): a red arc over a black background, both of which can be easily created in the [**Scene Outliner**](/incari-studio/modules/scene-outliner.md). Then, we set the `Size` **Attribute** of the arc to $$(150, 150, 1)$$. See this configuration in the following image: ![Scene configuration.](/files/pbqt5W3gtk8BLJvZxgZC) ### Logic We then need to configure the **Logic**. This is done in the [**Logic Editor**](/incari-studio/modules/logic-editor.md). We use the **MoveBy Action** **Node** with the following **Attributes**: * `To`: $$(150, 150, 0)$$ * `Duration (sec)`: $$3$$ * `Interpolation`: `Linear` And we connect to it the [**Object Node**](/incari-studio/objects-and-types/scene-objects.md#objects-in-the-logic) of the red arc and a **Pulse** to the `Start` **Input Socket**. Thus, having the following **Logic** configuration: ![Logic configuration.](/files/26kAw0h3hEwJ7QuPX6Kk) ### Final result Finally, the effect of the **ScaleTo Action** **Node** when triggered is the following: ![Final result.](/files/I00epR2q0bXfNDSsosZU) ## See Also * [**MoveBy Action**](/incari-studio/toolbox/actions/movebyaction.md) ## External Links * [*Position (geometry)*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_\(geometry\)) on Wikipedia.
