why are the rotors not move in a transient rotor-stator model

i am learning the tutorial #14 "14.6 Simulating the Stage with the Transient Rotor-Stator Model". Finally, i create a animation.but the rotor don't move in the animation. why!

How did you try to create your animation ?

I have tried it this morning and it works perfectly fine for me...
you have to select the timestep to animate.

In CFD-Post, Edit Options, select Automatic for the "Angular Shift for Transient Rotating Domains" setting.

If you select "Always Rotate" it will also move the rotor for a single row configuration.

The Never option is obvious.

Thomas MADELEINE and Opaque, thank you for your answer! This problem is solved when i select "always Rotate" for the "Angular Shift for Transient Rotating Domains". Thanks a lot!
I am a Chinese student. i hope you can come to China one day.
