Object Animation by Key Frames

The settings depend on the type of animated objects:

OptionDescriptionExceptions
Clip to originalLimits the object visible area to the values originally set in the Position field (position along XY axes and WH area dimensions). CSetting this parameter will cause the object appear along the X axis, for example, from its current horizontal position, rather than from the leftmost edge of the screen. The object content will be cropped if it exceeds the original borders. The object with the activated option will have a red border:
Except Sound level meter, Rect
Keypoint SmoothingSets an algorithm for smoothing object parameter changes between key points. If the parameter is not set, the change in object parameters from point to point will be linear. Setting options:
  • None - function disabled, parameters changes are linear.
  • In Sine -
  • Out Sine -
  • In/Out Sine -
  • In Exponential -
  • Out Exponential -
  • In/Out Exponential -
  • In Circular -
  • Out Circular -
  • In/Out Circular -
  • In Back -

  • In Elastic -

OrigStarting point for the Frm time code field:
  • Begin - from the composition start.
  • End - from the composition end.
  • In - from the composition In point.
  • Out - from the composition Out point.
  • Show - from the point of object appearance on screen.
  • Hide - from the point of object disappearing from the screen.

OpctSetting the degree of object transparency in percent: 100 - the object is opaque, 0 - the object is transparent (invisible).
