Can you return a Lottie back to running state after interaction?

Experimenting with Lottie as a more interactive alternative to animated webp and gifs. Wondering if there is a way to return a Lottie back to it’s normal running state after an interaction? Tried to set it in combination via a page load interaction, but that seemed to override the mouse-move-over-element interaction.

What I’m trying to achieve:

  • page load > lottie runs in loop
  • user runs mouse over lottie > lottie run is dictated by mouse-move-over-element animation
  • user mouse exits hovering over lottie > lottie returns back to loop

Only way I was able to accomplish this was creating two Lottie animations, one that would run normally, but then hide on hover, and then reveal the lottie that has the mouse-move-over-element interaction. But I know the extra file load is not ideal for page speed.
