Reaction envelope for moving patterns

Trying to combine TRACKLOOP with reaction envelope (Example 1 below) results in the envelope instantly disappearing, which is unwanted. Confocal (talk) 06:09, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

AUTOSTART STOP vs STARTFROM when envelope is visible

(This is a continuation from an user talk page.) I added several examples that use "AUTOSTART STOP <T>" and several examples that use "STARTFROM <T>". If someone can double-check that "STARTFROM" examples are likely to work better (and are unlikely to be worse) from a LifeWiki reader's viewpoint, then "AUTOSTART STOP" examples can be deprecated/removed to prefer "STARTFROM" in such cases.

AUTOSTART STOP examples are now removed -- as far as I know STARTFROM works as intended to show non-animated envelopes. Confocal (talk) 05:32, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
