Hello and sorry for not responding earlier.
I have tried what you suggested but I'm afraid there was an error in
understanding the problem. What you suggest gives me two animations that
begin at the same, but they still have separate sliders and I can pause only
one at a time. I need two animations to respond to a single slider so I can
pause them both simultaneously and manipulate the slider through the
interesting area of both animations.
I appreciate your effort.
