How to add an animation

  2. Click the animation halo-button 
  3. Select the animation type you want
  4. Optional: you can customize the duration, and delay of the animation. You can also choose to animate the element at the same time with the previous element or after a previous element's animation is done. There is also an option to start the animation after a feedback form has been submitted.
