How can I use Animate without a UID?

Long story short, I want to create an animation for my trees to sway as if blown by the wind using the Animate feature. However, I realized that the animation only applies to a single instance object (one UID). So, how can I implement it for all tree objects? Is there a way to apply the animation while ignoring the UID?

You can use the Timeline Controller object's 'Set instance' action to set a different instance to play a timeline with. See the Timeline instances example. If you want to play for all instances, you could try something like 'For each Sprite - set instance Sprite, play timeline'.
