Orbit Pre-set Animation

The Orbit animation makes a component rotate around another component, or a fixed point in the scene.

Using and customizing the Orbit pre-set animation

This pre-set has the following customizable properties:

Property	Description
Orbit around	Selecting ‘Object’ will use a component of your choice as a pivot point. Selecting ‘Point’ will use a specific point on the canvas according to the X, Y and Z axes.
Point	Set the X, Y, and Z coordinates for the orbit center. This becomes visible when ‘Point’ is selected as the ‘Orbit around’ property.
Orbit clockwise on axis	Select the X, Y, or Z axis of which the orbit plane will rotate around.
Reverse direction	When checked, the orbit direction will be in reverse (anti-clockwise).
Orbit angle	Set the angle in degrees for one complete orbit.
Duration	Set the duration in seconds of one complete orbit.
Easing	Choose the easing function for the animation.
Loop forever	When checked, the animation will repeat indefinitely.
Loop count	Set the number of times to repeat the animation. This becomes visible when ‘Loop forever’ is unchecked.
Back and forth	When checked, the animation will move back to the starting position after reaching the destination, then will continue to loop in this fashion.
