# Creating a loop

You can use the **Skip to Time** IFX to create a loop in your experience. This IFX jumps the playback to a different part of your timeline. You can create a loop by continuously jumping back to an earlier point on the timeline.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can also attach a Skip to Time IFX to buttons and other triggers so that users can jump out of a loop. For more information, see the [Design patterns](/engage/experience-editor/overview/design-patterns.md#segmented) design pattern.
{% endhint %}

## Adding a Skip to Time IFX to an experience

1. From the panel on the left-hand side, select <img src="/files/IoOEPZLPOKWyDb5ynAZd" alt="" data-size="line"> **IFX**.
2. From the library of IFX, select **Skip to Time (Lesson Seek)**.
3. Place the IFX in the environment. Its position isn't important.

## Creating a loop

1. Decide which points on the timeline will be the start and end of the loop.
2. Place the **Skip to Time** IFX at the point on the timeline that will be the end of the loop.
3. Access the effect options for the **Skip to Time** IFX.
4. In the **TIME VALUE** field, enter the timestamp for the start of the loop.
