    Hello.

    Is it possible to control the playhead of the Timeline through code?

    I am programming an auto-scrolling platform game and I want to use Unity's Timeline.
    The camera moves in a constant speed and I want to associate it with the Timeline's playhead, so the playhead moves in sync with the camera.

    Is it possible? How?

    You can set the time of a timeline using PlayableDirector.time and evaluate it manually using PlayableDirector.Evaluate().
