Delay javascript function

[Rick4F (Rick)]

I did a forum search (always a good idea as it's filled to the brim with past problems & solutions), for "delay javascript" and ran into this:

Suggestion: Timeline Actions - Duration on Pause

Thanks for the request! The current workaround/recommended method is to use javascript that would have a continue after a delay: hypeDocument.pauseTimelineNamed('Main Timeline'); window.setTimeout((function () { hypeDocument.continueTimelineNamed('Main Timeline', hypeDocument.kDirectionForward, false); }), 2000); // time to resume in ms

I'm not a JS guy, at all but my idea would be to use ^that code to stall a timeline where at some point your code will run.

So something like this: pause_timeline.hype.zip (14.9 KB)
