3 Click the drop-down arrow in the Animation field, and select a scene or an animation set from a scene. When you select a scene, all animation sets recorded for this scene will be used. 4 Click the drop-down arrow in the Animation Behavior field, and select how the animation will play during this task: ■ Scale - the duration of the animation is matched to the duration of the task. This is the default setting. ■ Match Start - the animation starts when the task starts. If the animation runs past the end of the TimeLiner simulation, the end of the animation will be clipped. ■ Match End - the animation starts early enough so that it ends just when the task end. If the animation starts before the beginning of the TimeLiner simulation, the start of the animation will be clipped. Add Scripts to Tasks When you add scripts to TimeLiner tasks, the script events are ignored, and the script actions are run regardless of the events. Using scripts enables you to control how the animation will play (forwards, backwards, a segment at a time and so on). You can also use scripts to change the camera viewpoints for individual tasks, or play several animations at the same time. NOTE Before you simulate your schedule, be sure to enable animation scripts in your file, by clicking the Toggle Scripts button on the Animation toolbar. To add a script 1 If the TimeLiner window is not already open, click Tools ➤ TimeLiner. 2 On the Tasks tab, click the task you want to add a script to, and use the horizontal scroll bar to locate the Script column. 3 Click the drop-down arrow in the Script field, and select the desired script to run with this task. 370 | Chapter 15 Simulate Construction Scheduling
