Working in Animate CC version 18 on PC. How can I create a timed (say 2 seconds) pause.

      If this is AS3:

      stop();

      setTimeout(play, 2000);

      If this is HTML5 Canvas:

      this.stop();

      setTimeout(this.play.bind(this), 2000);

      Insert two seconds of nothing happening in your timeline?

      You don't say what you want to happen after the pause so we're kind of limited in how specific a response to give. If this is in code you use setTimeout().

      I would like for the movie to continue with the next frame.
