- * clutter_timeline_clone:
- * @timeline: #ClutterTimeline to duplicate.
- *
- * Create a new #ClutterTimeline instance which has property values
- * matching that of supplied timeline. The cloned timeline will not
- * be started and will not be positioned to the current position of
- * the original @timeline: you will have to start it with
- * clutter_timeline_start().
- *
- * The only cloned properties are:
- *
- *  - #ClutterTimeline:duration
- *  - #ClutterTimeline:delay
- *  - #ClutterTimeline:direction
- *
- * Return value: (transfer full): a new #ClutterTimeline, cloned
- *   from @timeline
- *
- * Since: 0.4
- *
- * Deprecated: 1.10: Use clutter_timeline_new() or g_object_new()
- *   instead
