PlaybackMode Enum

Controls how an AnimationClip loops.

public enum PlaybackMode

Fields

OnceHoldLast 0

The clip plays once, freezes on the last frame, and sets IsFinished to true. Symmetric counterpart to OnceHoldFirst; identical in behaviour to Once but expresses the intent of holding the last frame more clearly. When Reversed is true, completion freezes on the \<em>first\</em> frame (index 0), because that is the logical "last" frame of a reversed pass.

OnceHoldFirst 1

The clip plays once and freezes on the first frame after completion. When Reversed is true, playback runs from the last frame to the first; completion freezes on the \<em>last\</em> frame (index Count − 1), because that is the logical "first" frame of a reversed pass.

OnceStop 2

The clip plays once and then clears the current frame entirely on completion, making CurrentFrame return null. Useful for VFX clips that should disappear rather than freeze on the last frame. OnAnimationComplete fires, then OnStopped fires (unless a queued animation takes over).

Loop 3

The clip loops indefinitely, jumping back to the first frame after the last.

PingPong 4

The clip plays forward to the end then backward to the start, repeating indefinitely.

PingPongOnce 5

The clip plays one full cycle (forward then backward, or backward then forward when Reversed is true), then stops on the first frame of the final pass. OnAnimationComplete fires at the end of the second pass. Queued animations and the state machine default state trigger normally.
