        you patch works beautifully, and yes, it is very complicated. I will study it in order to understand it, but I am pretty sure it gets even more complicated as soon as I want to use an envelope with 2 or more segments.

        the pause input in Ease in-out 2D is exactly what I wish I have in envelope!! it is again not easy to work with this actor if have more than one segment.

          you can tether multiple Ease in-out 2D actors (using the 'complete' trigger to start the next one) as if each one were a segment.

            true. it is possible to draw a very complex envelope with multiple Ease in-out 2D actors, but then it gets again really complicated to pause the whole chain of Ease in-out 2D actors

              Hello,

              I just discover the post and I also search a way to have an envelope working like the command on a lightning desk:
              – possibility to start/pause resume
              – possibility to accelerate/decelerate/go backward
              Each time I give a class about Isadora, that is one of the first question when we make the first video player with automated fade, how to stop it? to go backward?
              I tried to do that with user actor using envelope, with duration, it can works, but not easy to use for begginers.
              It could be a great value to have that, easy to use in the tools, hello Mark and brave developers!

                    I make another proposition, with start/stop/resume/accel/decel/invert, it's a prototype, but show what I would find in a super envelope actor…

                    It's necessary to use the movie included (100 second 1 pixel movie).

                        There's also Ease In-Out 2D which is like an envelope Generator.

                        Pros:

                        • Built-in curvature
                        • Pause, Resume, and Trigger inputs
                        • Can change two values at once (it says X and Y but you can use them for whatever)

                        Cons:

                        • Unlike an Envelope Generator, it can only have one "segment"

                          @woland - thanks a lot - this possibility is great too - however in my case i create a scene, where a satellite is circling round the moon  - so I need four segments to let the object fly in a circle - I looped the envelopes by retriggering themselves - but then how can I stop the loop :-) - captured in the endless universe !

                            you can put a gate actor in-between and trigger it to off.

                              @michel - sorry for my delayed answer - the gate actor is perfect for stopping the whole process - but the envelope actor doesn't stop - so i found a solution with the pulse generator - i cannot stop and go whereever i want, but at least I can do that "behind the curtain" ;-) -
