Overview

The method SVGAnimator.stop() does not reset the animation time. The only way to start the animation from the beginning is to call <tt<SVGSVGElement.setCurrentTime( 0f );</tt>

Description

Resetting the animation or setting the animation backwards does not work. This also means that playing the animation backwards is not supported.

How to reproduce

This issue affects JSR-226 when running on the emulator.

Stop the animation and call SVGSVGElement.setCurrentTime(time), where time equals 0f or less than the current time retrieved with SVGSVGElement.getCurrentTime().

Solution

For resetting the animation, recreate the SVGAnimator object. Resetting the animation time back to zero will be fixed in S60 3rd Edition, FP2 MIDP SDK.
