Hi Nyall,

hm - but @animation_start_time and @animation_end_time seems not to be moving along with the time slider. That remains "static" during the animation.

Based on your feedback I was expecting @animation_start_time and @animation_end_time to move along with the time slider - this doesn't seem the case.

Anyway - with second(@frame_duration) * @frame_number

and this is also a single point in time, relative to the beginning of the animation, not a "range" slice.

I get what I want (the current time representation value of the time slider). I just thought there might be something "easier".

I might not get the full concept of the new temporal framework - I have also to admit, that I didn't really use the TimeManager plugin a lot - maybe with this background, things would have been clearer to me.

Thanks,

Andreas

Correct -- the new temporal framework works on the concept of a map
having a time range, not a single time instant.

The equivalent variables are:
- @animation_start_time
- @animation_end_time

Still not clear. Do you mean the timer running in the lower right?
If so, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgDg5cRwPRw starting at 54:40
for the formula

By "current time of an animation" I mean the current time represented

Hi,

In an animation (QGIS 3.14) - how do I get the current time of an
animation?

In https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8R0TQlhdc1U&feature=youtu.be at
minute 6:26, it shows a formula involving the "animation_datetime()"
function.

But my expression editor complains, that this function is not
available.

Thanks for your hints,

Andreas
