playReverse on symbol that has nested symbols in sequence

Dropbox - AE - TEST 3

 

Hi,

 

Having problem with the playReverse method. Basically I would like to know if you can playReverse a Symbol animation that has nested symbol/animations?

 

Above dropbox link is the project file.

 

In the attached project Test 3, I have symbol called "animation-4-master". Within this sits 2 symbols, "animation-4-start" and "animation-4" which play in that order sequentially.

 

In the project I have two basic text buttons "FORWARD" and "REVERSE".

 

What should happen is when the forward button is pressed, the parent symbol/animation plays forward, playing the nested animations in sequence, which is does fine.

 

When I do the opposite i.e. playReverse, the parent timeline goes to the end where it should, but then only plays the 2nd animation (animation-4) and plays it forward, not even backwards. The first nested animation (animation-4-start) does not even get played.

 

I have inserted console.log markers to report the 3 position points for both forward and reverse, so this is how I know what the timeline is doing.

 

I can easily play each nested animation by itself from the Reverse button, but I want to play the parent animation, so as to play both nested animations in reverse sequence.

 

There are no triggers that are moving the position of the playhead, they are just producing console.logs to try and solve this problem.

 

Any help would be great.

Mick
