Henry,
I'm not sure if this helps your situation, but we run animations in our own
loop (e.g. below). You can pretty much do whatever you want with respect to
frame display:
var filePath = "animations/Chlorination_of_anisoleF.TXT";
var frameInterval = .1;
load @filePath;hide *;background black;set echo top center;font echo 36
serif;color echo yellow;echo VMK Molecular Movies|Presents|Aromatic Clorination
Reaction;delay 3;
animation off;hover off;color label pink;select formalCharge <> 0;label %C;set
echo top left;font echo 16 sansserif;
color echo yellow;select *;var j = getProperty("modelInfo","modelCount");
for (var i = 1; i <= j; i++){
frame @i;
if (i == 2){display *;echo Start with a bit of aluminum chloride.;delay
3;echo;}
if (i == 3){display *;echo Add some dichlorine.;delay 3;echo;}
if (i == 18){display *;echo Add anisole.;delay 3;echo;}
if (i == 79){display *;echo A cyclohexadienyl cation intermediate;delay
3;echo;}
if (i == 81){display *;echo A resonance contributor;delay 3;echo;}
if (i == 86){display *;echo Another resonance contributor;delay 3;echo;}
if (i == 93){display *;echo A 4th resonance contributor;delay 3;echo;}
if (i == 159){display *;echo Loss of a proton, ;delay 3;echo;}
if (i == 167){display *;echo regenerates the aromatic ring.;delay 3;}
delay @{frameInterval};
}
echo The final product is 1-chloro-4-methoxy-benzene.;delay 3;boundbox
{*};centerat boundbox;zoom 0;

WatchGuard Dimension instantly turns raw network data into actionable
security intelligence. It gives you real-time visual feedback on key
security issues and trends. Skip the complicated setup - simply import
a virtual appliance and go from zero to informed in seconds.
