4. Within this dialogue box, we can find the different options to handle the 3D animation of the vehicle:

   - play animation,

   - stop animation,

   - move forward animation,

   - move backwards animation,

   - move to the beginning animation,

   - move to the end animation,

   - place the 3D vehicle at any point along the path manually,

   - take stamps of the 3D vehicle over the path,

   - draw the trace of the 3D vehicle along the path,

   - erase all the stamps and traces from the path and

   - access the settings dialogue box.
