Blinking border and timeline question

[ceescoenen 1 Likes (Newbie)]

Hi, 

 

I will make an attention with 5 text rows. After the 2nd tex row the 'datetime' box is blinking. 

 

1. I can't get the blinking smooth. I have played with duration etc but there is a duration gap. 

2. I have set the 3rd text row to start after 3 seconds instead of waiting the blink repeat. That works but the 4th text row wait on the blinking. I thought it would only wait on the 3rd text row.

When you add an animation to a timeline without using the position parameter, it's going to add it to the end of the timeline, so it's going to be added right after the blinking animation has finished because that is the end of the timeline when you added it. 

 

To fix, you can just add the blinking animation last and give it a position parameter.

Not sure what you mean that. It's doing what you're telling it to. Perhaps you need to use a different ease. 🤷‍♂️
