Skip first animation from participating in a loop/yoyo effect

[Havir]

Hi folks!

Just a quick one, how would I go around making a timeline animation that repeats itself indefinitely with the yoyo effect BUT it skips the initial, first animation? ( skipping animation like a scale-in, blur-out, type of animation - so the element doesn't 'disappear' again)

 

 

I've found one post from 2016 about skipping one animation, and it wasn't really talking about an animation being skipped from a loop and with the yoyo effect, so I suppose it wouldn't bite to write this post.

You just separate out the part that you don't want to repeat. For example:

Does that help?

ABSOLUTELY.

I was worried the solution would be something incredibly simple (and it is in the end) but it's just a clever workaround and I love it, thank You!
