The following animation:
Manipulate[ Plot[i*Sin[x], {x, 0, 2*Pi}, PlotRange -> 10], {i, 1, 10, ControlType -> Animator}] Gives:
How can I exchange Slider and Play Button Position, like that:
You can have two controls, an Animator and a Slider (or a Manipulator), both tied to the same variable:
Manipulate[Plot[i*Sin[x], {x, 0, 2*Pi}, PlotRange -> 10], Row[{Control[{i, 1, 10, Animator, AppearanceElements -> {"StepLeftButton", "StepRightButton", "PlayPauseButton", "FasterSlowerButtons", "DirectionButton"}}], Control[{{i, 1, ""}, 1, 10, Slider}]}]] ControlType -> Animator or just Animator; both work. $\endgroup$
