Controlling the Standing animation with LUA

I've been trying via LUA to manipulate (start, stop and reverse) the standing animations of a NPC Character's default outfit, but it seems I cannot achieve this; I can easily get other Character Animations to work just fine though - but it seems as if standing animations in particular don't respond to startAnimation, stopAnimation - is this so indeed? or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you!

aha, thought so!

Glad to hear that! 

Thanks again AFRLme

Once the standing animations are active, you can manipulate the start/finish frames of the animation like this:

local fAnim = getObject("ActiveAnimations[Standing01]")

fAnim.AnimationFirstFrame = 10
fAnim.AnimationLastFrame = 30

I have certain frames within my standing animations that call a function to decide on what the next sequence of frames should be, this allows for the charcater to have random idle animations.
