offset
Defines the offset in seconds after which the animation will be started.
// starts SEQ_1 on object with ID "Z_01"
result = ivx1.StartAnimation ("Z_01", "SEQ_1", 0);
// starts SEQ_1 on object with ID "Z_02"
result = ivx1.StartAnimation ("id(Z_02)", "SEQ_1", 0);
// starts SEQ_1 on all objects with name "blue"
result = ivx1.StartAnimation ("name(blue)", "SEQ_1", 0);
// stops all animations on object with ID "Z_01"
result = ivx1.StartAnimation ("Z_01", "$STOP", 0);
// stops all animations on objects with name "blue"
result = ivx1.StartAnimation ("name(blue)", "$STOP", 0);
