Parameter List
Any keyframeable parameters of selected objects can be displayed in the list on the left
side of the Keyframe Editor. This includes object properties, filters, and behaviors. By
selecting multiple items in the Layers list or Timeline, you can compare parameters across
multiple objects.
The parameter list contains the following items:
Activation checkbox: Checkboxes in the left column set which parameters are displayed
in the graph. Deselect a checkbox to hide a parameter’s keyframes and curves from the
graph on the right.
Parameter name: Object and parameter names appear in the second column of the
parameter list. Control-click a parameter name to apply a Parameter behavior from the
shortcut menu.
Value: Parameter values at the playhead position appear in the third column. Modify a
parameter value by dragging left or right over the number in this field. Or double-click
the field, then enter a value. The value displayed and editing options depend on several
factors:
• If the playhead is parked on a keyframe, this field shows the value for that keyframe.
Adjusting the value alters the keyframe.
• If the playhead is not parked on a keyframe, this field shows the value of that parameter
at the current frame. If the parameter has keyframes, adjusting the value creates a new
keyframe at that frame.
For more information on changing the values of keyframes, see Modifying Keyframes.
For more information on value sliders, see Value Sliders.
Keyframe and Keyframe Navigation buttons: Keyframe controls appear in the fourth
column. These controls are identical to those found in the Inspector: the Previous Keyframe
button, Add/Delete Keyframe button, and Next Keyframe button. For more information,
see Keyframe Controls.
