Testing Animations Across Multiple Players

The Multi-player Test feature allows you to preview your Lottie animation across different rendering libraries simultaneously, helping you identify visual inconsistencies before deployment.

How to Use Multi-player Test

1. Open your animation in the workspace
2. Click the Multi-player test button (monitor icon) in the top toolbar
3. The screen will split into multiple preview panels

Selecting Players and Versions

Each panel has two dropdown menus:

• Player dropdown - Choose which rendering library to test (e.g., dotlottie-web, lottie-web, skottie, rlottie)
• Version dropdown - Select the specific version of that library (latest or previous versions)

You can configure each panel independently to compare different player and version combinations side-by-side.

Why This Matters

Different Lottie players may render animations differently due to varying levels of feature support. Testing across multiple players helps you:

• Spot visual discrepancies between platforms before going live
• Verify that your animation works correctly on all target environments
• Identify which player versions support specific animation features
• Make informed decisions about which players to use in production

Tip: Test with the actual player versions used in your production environment to ensure accurate results.
