Merchant unit portait

How to make a merchant unit animates its portrait ??

I have a Unit (building) that is a merchant with

Abilities ( Select Unit , Shop purchase item , invulnerable (neutral) )
Classification ( mechanical )

 

[WaterKnight]

Portraits are model files stored under the physical model path + "_Portrait". So yeah, edit this model. Does not have anything to do with abilities or classifications.

Ok, I know this already, I mean I am using Paladin model for example,
how to make it animates when selected, like "I am not afraid" etc, It should do something in portait

And I saw this in some map I dont remember exactly
----------------------------------------------------
It is more like If the Unit's Owner is (Neutral Hostile) and not to you it won't animate.
Where I am running this jass trigger

    call ShowUnitHide( GetTriggerUnit() )
    call UnitRemoveAbilityBJ( 'Ane2', GetEnumUnit() )
    call ShowUnitShow( GetTriggerUnit() )

Ane2 = Select Unit (ability)

I found the map where you can see what I want:

Try to select some merchants that look like (mountain giant, witch doctor... ) and see their portrait

Do not know much about portraits but when you take a look at one's animations, there are "Portrait" and "Portrait Talk" sequences. First are the idlying animations and latter the responses to orders or selections. Now I do not know whether you can differentiate between them. If there is only one talk animation, it will be taken.

Ok I think it uses (Rabbit) unit to make that. I will try to use it in my map.

After many tests I found that because the Stats - Race is Critter it shows portrait animations as well as sound set
