How to Have Blender play "Animation 2"

Support Animation and Rigging

I’m trying to import an FBX to Blender and when I do, it stays in it’s Idle position. I opened the animation with Windows’ 3D Viewer, and on the bottom it said it was playing “Animation 1,” which is the Idle animation:

When I open the drop down menu, I can play Animation 2, which is the animation I want.

So, how do I make Blender play Animation 2?

You can set a certain animation to play for a model when playing the animation timeline in Blender by going to:

Editor Type - Dope Sheet - Mode: Action Editor

Then click the 3-dot icon this is highlighted in the screenshot to bring down a dropdown menu containing all of your existing animation action where you can select one.
