Animation and keyframes
Edit keyframe graphs in the Effect Controls panel
Once you activate keyframing for an effect's property, you can display the effect's Value and Velocity graphs. Value
graphs provide information about the value of nonspatial keyframes (such as the Scale property of the Motion effect)
at any point in time. They also display and let you adjust the interpolation between keyframes. You can use the Velocity
graph to fine-tune the rate of change between keyframes.
Effect property's value and velocity graphs
A. Keyframe marker B. Level graph indicating unchanged value C. Rising graph indicating increasing value D. Falling graph indicating
decreasing value E. Keyframe F. Value graph G. Velocity graph
In a Timeline panel, select a clip containing an effect containing keyframes you want to adjust.

Click the triangle next to a property's name to display its Value and Velocity graphs.

Note: If no keyframes have been added, the graphs appear as flat lines.
(Optional) To better view a graph, hover the Selection or Pen tool over the boundary line below a graph. When the

pointer turns into a segment pointer
Use the Selection or Pen tool to drag a keyframe up or down on the Value graph, changing the effect property's

value.
Note: In a Value or Velocity graph, you cannot move a keyframe left or right to change its current time. Instead, drag a
keyframe marker above the graph using the Selection or Pen tool.
Edit keyframe graphs from a Timeline panel
Make sure a Timeline panel has at least one clip containing one or more effects with keyframes. Select this clip and

graphs.
In the effect menu that appears after the name of the clip or track, select the property you want to adjust. If you can't
