Scrub the timeline

Scrubbing refers to manually scrolling through an animation, forward and backward, previewing your animation, pausing where you like in case you want to add a keyframe.

To scrub the timeline

1. Select the timeline from the Storyboard picker by clicking the Open a Storyboard button  under Objects and Timeline and then selecting a storyboard.

2. Click and drag the playhead  as you want, forward or backward.

   As you drag the playhead, you will see the animation play out on the artboard.
