    Hi, I would like to know if its possible to keep the animation from the animation track playing in the Animator after the Timeline ends. Right now it looks like the Animator is playing its original animation in the background while the Timeline takes over. Is it possible to have the Timeline switch the animation as well?

    Once the Timeline ends, it stops overriding other animation sources on the Animator.
    You can set the Playable Director to Hold the pose of the last frame if you want to keep overriding forever, but then you will have to manually stop the PlayableDirector to return control to the Animator

    Thanks for the reply, however I was looking for a way to have the Timeline switch the animation in the animator so even after the Timeline stops playing the animation will continue in the Animator.
