View Menu
Frame All
Zooms all F-Curves to t the window.
Frame Selection
Zooms the selected keys to t the window.
Auto Relative
Auto Relative scales each curve to t the 0-100 range of the F-Curve manager’s Y-axis using a special
relative mode. The real values of the keys are not changed. All that you’re doing is moving and scaling
the F-Curves closer to each other so that you don’t have to scroll and zoom each time you want to
edit a different F-Curve.
These relative F-Curves are indicated by an ‘R’ just to the left of the F-Curve. Keep in mind that the real
values of these relative F-Curves no longer correspond to the values along the X-axis and Y-axis of the
F-Curve manager. To return the relative F-Curves to their normal state so that their values once again
correspond to the F-Curve manager’s X-axis and Y-axis, use the Reset Relative command.
After using Auto Relative, use Frame All to scale the F-Curve manager’s 0-100 vertical range to the
full vertical height of the window.” See also ‘Relative mode’ earlier in this chapter and ‘Reset Relative’,
below.
Reset Relative
If you’ve used the Auto Relative command or the 4+drag and 5+drag short-cuts to create relative
F-Curves (indicated by an ‘R’ to the left of each F-Curve), the real values of the F-Curves no longer
correspond to the values along the X-axis and Y-axis of the F-Curve manager. Choose Reset Relative to
return the relative F-Curves to their normal state so their values once again correspond to the F-Curve
manager’s X and Y-axes. See also ‘Relative mode’ earlier in this chapter and ‘Auto Relative’, above.
Crosshairs
Switches on cross hairs for the selected keys. This makes it easier to read the values of selected keys
along the X-axis and Y-axis.
