This document discusses creating an animated bouncing ball in Synfig using time loops. It explains how to: 1) Duplicate keyframes to save time positioning the object in each loop of the animation. This will create the animation twice using duplicated keyframes. 2) Preview the animation using the Preview option. 3) Add a time loop layer to the top layer to loop the animation for a set duration defined by the time loop parameters.

2. Bouncing Ball Using Time Loop
 An animated bouncing ball that loop till the end time of the animation
using keyframe and time loop
 Duplicate a keyframe saves time in positioning the object in the
animation all over again. The animation will be created twice using
duplication keyframes concept.
 Preview the animation using FilePreview.
 Select Top layerRight clickAdd new layerOtherTime loop
 The time loop parameters shows the duration which denotes the
frames or seconds that are looped.
