The name of the selected step appears here. It is possible to change this name. When it has been changed, the Apply button becomes available.

Selecting this option means that the step and its actions are executed directly when the animation is played back. When the option has been selected, the Apply button becomes available.

In contrast to the set option, when animate is selected, the step’s animation and its actions are implemented over a specific period. The period is specified by the value next to Duration. This animate option is the default setting. When a step is created, the default duration value is applied, in line with the entries on the Animation dialog page under the Preferences menu command. You can alter the value in the entry field. When it has been changed, the Apply button becomes available. The step duration value you enter must not exceed the period of unoccupied time that is available.
