    When playing a timeline using a Playable Director, and setting Wrap Mode to "none", I expect that after the timeline is done playing, the scene will revert back to its state before the timeline started playing (undoing all the changes the timeline has made).
    In reality, the scene is left in the state of the last frame of the timeline.

    Is that the expected behaviour? Is there a way (maybe through scripting?) to revert the changes of the timeline after it is done playing?

    Hey! I wish I had this problem. For me, with the Wrap Mode set to none, the scene reverts back to what it was before, but I'd like it to stay as it is at the end of the timeline.

    My PlayableDirector looks like this:

    And here's the playable:

    Both of these are very dependent on what the timeline is doing.

    Animation tracks don't revert poses or values. Activation tracks have an option to revert or keep the current state.
