The stop button will stop the animation, if it was playing, and set the animation back the first sequence.

The next button will stop the animation and move you to the next sequence. Nothing will happen when you are at the last sequence of the animation.
Loop
If the loop button is enabled the animation will loop when the play button is pressed.
