Three time editing modes are selectable
from the Time mode drop-down menu
Time
The number field shows the current frame number of the selected control point. Entering a new
frame number into the field moves the selected control point to the specified frame. If no
keyframes are selected or if multiple keyframes are selected, the field is empty, and you cannot
enter a time.
Time Offset
Selecting T Offset from the drop-down menu changes the mode of the number field to Time Offset.
In this mode, the number field offsets the selected keyframes positively or negatively in time. An
offset of either positive or negative values can be entered. For example, entering an offset of 2
moves a selected keyframe from frame 10 to 12. If multiple keyframes were selected in the previous
example, all the keyframes would move two frames forward from their current positions.
Time Scale
Selecting T Scale from the drop-down menu changes the mode of the number field to Time Scale.
In this mode, the selected keyframes’ positions are scaled based on the position of the playhead.
For example, if a keyframe is on frame 10 and the playhead is on frame 5, entering a scale of 2
moves the keyframe 10 frames forward from the playhead’s position, to frame 15. Keyframes on the
left side of the playhead would be scaled using negative values.
Value Editor
The Value Editor is used to modify the selected keyframe’s parameter value using one of three Value
modes. You can change the Value mode to enter a specific value for a parameter, an offset from the
value, or to spread the values. The mode is chosen from the Value mode drop-down menu.
Three value editing modes are selectable
from the Value mode drop-down menu
Value
The number field shows the value of the currently selected keyframes. Entering a new number into
the field changes the value of the selected keyframe. If more than one keyframe is selected, the
displayed value is an average of the keyframes, but entering a new value will cause all keyframes
to adopt that value.
Value Offset
Choosing Offset from the drop-down menu sets the Value Editor to the Offset mode. In this mode,
the value for the selected keyframes are offset positively or negatively. An offset of either positive
or negative values can be entered. For example, entering a value of -2 changes a value from 10 to
8. If multiple keyframes are selected, all the keyframes have their values modified by -2.
Value Scale
Choosing Offset from the drop-down menu sets the Value Editor to the Scale mode. Entering a
new value causes the selected keyframes’ values to be scaled or multiplied by the specified
amount. For example, entering a value of 0.5 changes a keyframe’s value from 10 to 5.
