For example, in a group which manages a repeatingfade-out-fade-in animation, the associated object will continue to fadecompletely back in, instead of the animation stopping and the object instantlyswitching from partial opacity to full opacity instantly. Does nothing if thisgroup is not playing.To instantly stop an animation, see AnimationGroup:Stop().GetAnimationsReturns a list of animations belonging to the group.... = AnimationGroup:GetAnimations()Returns:...—A list of Animation objects belonging to the animation group(list)GetDurationReturns the duration of a single loop cycle for the group, as determined by itschild animations.duration = AnimationGroup:GetDuration()Total duration is based on the durations, delays and order of child animations;see example for details.Returns:duration—Total duration of all child animations (in seconds)(number)Example:-- contains two animations which are implicitly ordered, so-- group duration is the sum of the animation durations: 1.6 sec
