How can I make the default state the end state of an animation clip?

I have a simple UI control (Toggle) where I animate the "on" and "off" states.



I have 2 anim clips:

1. From On to Off
2. From Off to On

I have 3 states in my anim controller:

1. Default (no motion)
2. UIToggle_On (off to on clip)
3. UIToggle_Off (on to off clip)

I control the transitions using a boolean param called "isOn".

What I want: Set the initial default state without playing any animation at all.

How can I do this?

 

Default states play automatically if that’s what your asking?

 

No, my ask is if it's possible to set the default state to be the end frame of an animation clip. I don't want the animation to play, I want it to be at its default end state.

Imagine if this was a character death animation. You want to spawn a character already dead instead of playing the death animation. You want by default the animation state to be the end state of the death animation. Does it make sense?

 

Nevermind, I figured it out. I had to set the "Motion time" param in the animation state to 0 or 1.

 

another way would be to make the default state empty containing no animation clip at all.
