How to animate an odb file in HyperWorks HV through multiple steps?

I have multiple steps in my Abaqus result file and I want to animate the model through all available steps. HyperWorks only animate a single step. How can I animate to multiple steps?

Create a derived load case so you can animate selected loadcases and increments.

Thanks and that was helpful. How about the same problem but in HyperGraph when trying to plot a history output?

Usually I manually shift the curves of later steps to show one curve instead of multiple curves. But there are always gaps between first and end points of each curve.
