I am having a similar issue, where as I want my menu buttons to animate in from different directions, then when I press the button, for example the credits UI, I want to animate back out the menu buttons, and animate in the credits UI. I am not getting a PlayBackwards call for the menu buttons to work, I'm not sure if it is because I have PlayForward and PlayBackwards setup on my buttons PointerEnter and PointerExit events.

What does PlayRestart do? Is it similar to PlayBackwards? Also, what is the correct setup for an animation you want to reuse, like my menu buttons, I want to be able to animate them in and out of the menu scene.

Thanks

[EDIT] So far I have been able to work this out Mainly my issues were because of incorrect references.
