Ticker (does not require writing Script)
Opus app has this as part of
standard Triggers (may be under 'Advanced' in Object Actions dialog). I would guess Creator has that also.
A simple example would be set Trigger>>Ticker (2 seconds) and Action>>Animate/Rotate. You get the idea.
Ticker -- if you want to do OpusScript.
There is not a "ticker" command. But the idea is this:
Code:
for ( i = 0; i < 300 ; i++) {
somePagevariable = someDynamicValueiWanttoSetHere ; //not needed, but possible. Typical use to track some data that is changing
MySquare.Rotate(6)
wait(1.0)
}
// that just illustrates the general 'flow'. The 'for' creates a loop, and the 'wait(time) regulates the pace.
// timing may not exactly match a realworld clock, if there were lots of actions to execute

I found these in 20 seconds... simple to Search here.
The DW User Manuals .pdf are also a good read for both Basic/Product and the Script manual. ( I find them lacking enough robust examples, and the Forum is good for filling in there.)
You'll get a better idea "what's possible" and what to look for.
