Smart animate - Linear =300ms

Can you provide a direct link to the file here, and invite support-share@figma.com with “can edit” permission so I can investigate what’s causing this. Note that users with @figma.com emails on your team do not count towards your billing.

If you’re unsure on how to invite someone to a file, please follow these steps:

  1. Click the “Share” button at the top-right corner of the Editor
  2. In the next window, type support-share@figma.com into the text box
  3. Select the “can edit” permission option
  4. Click the “Send invite” button

Thanks in advance!

Hey, I think your animation is right. This happened to me too. And, I think you need a “trigger” to make it work. There are two ways to make this work:

  1. You press “R” to restart the prototype
  2. You begin with another frame A, and then make an interaction on the frame A to navigate to frame B.

Can you try this?

I didnt quite understand the second part but the first part worked initially but then it stopped and i tried clicking “R” but didnt work.
