•
Simple Fit: Positions the camera so both width and height of the project t in the frame. If
the target object is larger or smaller than the project dimensions, it may not properly ll
the frame.
•
Custom Fit: This option appears when the Framing Oset parameter is manipulated manually.
•
Framing Oset: Three value sliders (X, Y, and, when expanded, Z) to oset (in pixels) the point
on the target that is centered, relative to the camera. By adjusting Framing Oset, you can
target a point other than the center of the object. The Z slider moves the camera nearer to or
farther from the target.
•
Oset Path Apex: A slider to set the position along the path (from the original position to the
framing position) where the bend (if any) occurs if the user chooses to oset the path. It is
expressed as a value between 0 and 1 (0 being at the start of the path, 1 at the end, and 0.5
being halfway along the path).
•
Path Oset: Three value sliders (X, Y, and when expanded, Z) to oset the camera’s position
from the path, measured in pixels.
•
Orientation: A pop-up menu to set whether the camera is oriented towards the target at every
frame (Orient to Current) or oriented towards the target at its nal position (Orient to Final).
•
Position Transition Time: A slider to set how long it takes the camera to reach the framing
position, measured as a percentage of the behavior’s duration.
•
Rotation Transition Time: A slider to set how long it takes the camera to reach the framing
orientation, measured as a percentage of the behavior’s duration.
•
Transition: A pop-up menu listing choices for the speed of the transition. Choices include
Constant, Ease In, Ease Out, Ease Both, Accelerate, or Decelerate.
•
Ease Out Time: A slider to set the percentage of the behavior’s duration when the ease-out
eect starts. The ease out ramps down the behavior’s eect until the end of the behavior.
•
Ease Out Curve: A slider that sets the rate of the ease out.
The HUD contains a subset of the controls in the Inspector.

The Framing behavior has onscreen controls that allow you to manipulate the behavior settings
in the Canvas.
