如何阻止基于FuncAnimation子类Player创建的动画自动启动？

要让动画初始化后不自动启动，只需要对Player类做两处关键修改：

1. 修改初始运行状态，将self.runs的初始值从True改为False
2. 在调用父类FuncAnimation的初始化方法时，添加autostart=False参数，禁止matplotlib自动启动动画

        self.i = 0
        self.min=mini
        self.max=maxi
        self.runs = False  # 修改初始运行状态为关闭
        self.forwards = True

        self.fig = fig

        self.func(self.i)
        self.fig.canvas.draw_idle()

    def setup(self, pos):
        playerax = self.fig.add_axes([0.4, 0.92, 0.22, 0.03])

修改说明 #

• self.runs = False：初始状态下关闭动画的循环播放逻辑，play()生成器不会持续生成帧
• autostart=False：禁用FuncAnimation的自动启动特性，确保matplotlib底层不会主动触发动画播放

修改后，程序运行后会停留在初始帧（i=0），只有点击播放按钮（▶）才会开始动画，点击其他控制按钮也能正常逐帧或反向播放。
