The Window-->Animate window allows a more complete control of all animation options of the current visualized result.
If only one step is present (or if the model has been deformed using a result's vector), then the static animation options are enabled, so that a custom animation profile can be set up to animate that one (deformation) step.
If one result has several steps you can visualize them in an animation. In this case we will use the iso surfaces result.
- Select View->Render->Smooth
- Select Window->Animate...to open the animation window
Please notice that we have from step 1 to 13. We will do the animation only of some of these steps.

We will record a video during the animation.
