@aaronventure this did the trick ! many thanks!

//button
const var Buttonx = Content.getComponent("Buttonx");

inline function onButtonxControl(component, value)
{
    if (value)
    {
        // Button pressed, start animation
        p.startTimer(1000.0 / object.frameRate);
    }
    else
    {
        // Button released, stop the animation
        p.stopTimer();
    }
}

Content.getComponent("Buttonx").setControlCallback(onButtonxControl);
