I have a related question. When exporting a Manipulate, ControllerManipulate, or Animate to an AVI, no matter what I try, the resulting AVI always runs the animation forward then backward once. I'd like it to run the animation forward only, and repeat a specified number of times (say, 3). I've looked all over the documentation for Manipulate, ControllerManipulate, and Animate, and for AVI and SWF, and have done a great deal of experimentation, but have not succeeded in this. I have tried setting AnimationDirection and AnimationRepetitions in Animate, but these options are ignored when I export. I've also tried setting these options in Export (which accepts them as options provided you put quotes around them), but again they are ignored. Export to SWF has an option for "RepeatAnimation", but as far as I can tell, it is only possible to set this to "True" (the default, which repeats *infinitely*, forward then backward), or "False" (which runs the animation once in each direction). -- Helen Read University of Vermont
