# makeActionAnimation(for:duration:name:bindTarget:blendLayer:repeatMode:fillMode:trimStart:trimEnd:trimDuration:offset:delay:speed:) Creates an action animation containing a single event definition from an action. ``` @MainActor @preconcurrency static func makeActionAnimation(for action: T, duration: TimeInterval = 1.0, name: String = "", bindTarget: BindTarget? = nil, blendLayer: Int32 = 0, repeatMode: AnimationRepeatMode = .none, fillMode: AnimationFillMode = [], trimStart: TimeInterval? = nil, trimEnd: TimeInterval? = nil, trimDuration: TimeInterval? = nil, offset: TimeInterval = 0, delay: TimeInterval = 0, speed: Float = 1.0) throws -> AnimationResource where T : EntityAction ``` ## Parameters `action` The user action. `duration` The event interval’s duration. `name` A textual name for the animation. `bindTarget` A textual name that identifies the particular property that animates. `blendLayer` An integer that specifies the order in which to apply animations when more than one animation is playing. `repeatMode` An option that determines how the animation repeats. `fillMode` An option that determines how the animation repeats. `trimStart` The optional time, in seconds, at which the animation plays. `trimEnd` The optional time, in seconds, at which the animation stops. `trimDuration` An optional duration that overrides the calculated duration. `offset` The time, in seconds, at which the animation begins within the duration. `delay` An amount of time that lapses before the animation plays. `speed` A factor that changes the animation’s rate of playback. ## Return Value An animation resource to play the given action. ## Discussion> Note: Duration is clamped to a positive, small non zero value, if duration is zero or less. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
