Once the module has been initialised, the animation may be started. The image to the right shows the available controls.
Clicking the Go forwards button will move the time forward by the increment specified after the delay specified.
Clicking the Go backwards button will move the time backward by the increment specified after the delay specified.
The Pause time button will pause the animation.
The Go to start date or Go to end date buttons will change the date to the appropriate end of the range.
The animation will automatically stop on reaching the start or end dates.
The Current date button may be used to manually enter the current date.
The Date slider may be used to quickly change the date by sliding it with the mouse, however, a much more controlled use is to select the Date slider and to press the Up or Down keys on your keyboard changing the date by the specified amount. Using the slider in combination with the mouse scroll button or the Page Up and Page Down keys will change the date by a greater amount.
