You use the ribbon to view and edit keyframes, velocity, tension, and motion ease.
In the 3D Viewport of the scene, the ribbon displays the 3D path of animated items using the current interpolation.
For the ribbon to be visible, the origin of the model must be above the floor.
To edit animations:
-
Click an Object Manipulation
Tool.
-
On the ribbon, select a keyframe.
The keyframes appear as boxes.
-
Edit the keyframe.
Moving a box moves that section of the ribbon, which
customizes the 3D path of the animated item.
-
Use the basic animation controls to the left of the animation
timeline to evaluate and play the animation.
- Optional:
Right-click a keyframe to Suppress
Keyframe or Unsuppress
Keyframe.
When suppressed, the animation keys are ignored during
playback.
-
With a keyframe selected and the animation playing, adjust the
Transition, Tension, and Motion
Ease in the Keyframe
Properties pane to the right of the animation timeline.
For example, change the Motion
Ease. If you set In to
maximum (+), the camera slows while approaching the selected keyframe. The color
on the ribbon indicates velocity: green indicates acceleration and red indicates
deceleration.
