Did you add an animation called `"ventilateur"` to be triggered?

Also, did you read the docs or the built in help or search the forum? - I ask because that command is not correct. The correct format of the `trigger_animation` command is ...

```auto
{ 
  "command":"trigger_animation",
  "selector":"#id_of_my_animation",
  "action":"start"
}

```

See docs here: [Home · bartbutenaers/node-red-contrib-ui-svg Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/bartbutenaers/node-red-contrib-ui-svg/wiki/)
