We believe that a picture is worth a thousand words and a movie should worth even more. Visual Paradigm extended the visual modeling platform to produce animation from your design - Animacian. Animacian becomes a popular feature in Visual Paradigm product line. More and more modelers use the Animacian to do their presentation, export the animation to Macromedia Flash to Intranet. With Animacian, you can see how your design in action by selecting different execution paths. Animacian is supported in Business Process Diagram, Sequence Diagram and Activity Diagram

In the VP Suite 4.0 SP1, modeler can customize the color theme of the animation and tune the speed of the animation. Let me show you how to change the color theme and the animation speed.

1. Open Animacian dialog box by clicking Animacian button in toolbar.
2. Click [Advanced Options] button.
3. Change animation color setting.
4. Change animation speed and click [OK] button.
5. Play animation.
