Open Prototype Mode – In the top-right corner, click on the “Prototype” tab to switch from design to interaction mode.

Create Multiple Frames (States) – Make different frames for each “state” of your animation. For example, one frame with a button at rest, another with it hovered or clicked.

Link Frames Together – Select an element (like a button), then click and drag the blue “Prototype node” (small circle on the edge) to the next frame.

Set Trigger Type – In the right panel, under “Interaction details”, choose a trigger like:

• On Click

• While Hovering

• After Delay

Choose Animation Type – Under “Animation”, select the type of transition:

• Instant – No animation

• Dissolve – Fade between frames

• Smart Animate – Auto-animates similar elements across frames

• Move In/Out or Push – Slide elements in/out of view

Customize Animation Settings – Adjust the animation duration and easing (e.g. ease in/out, linear) for smoother or snappier effects.

Preview the Animation – Click the Play (▶️) button in the top-right to launch the prototype and watch your animation in action.

Done – Your animation is live! Use more transitions and smart animate for a complete interactive prototype.
