Gets an object's current point along its timeline from zero to its dur value.

Property values
Type: Integer
the current point in time on a timeline. The value of this property ranges from zero to the duration (dur) of the element. If the element has the autoReverse property set to true, the simpleTime property begins decreasing until it reaches zero.
Remarks
This property supersedes the localTime property.
The following example shows how simpleTime increments as the object moves forward, decrements as the object moves backward, and then starts over from zero when the repeatCount increments.
Examples
This example also shows how activeTime, segmentTime, and simpleTime relate to each other.
