Recording is stopped, and the snapshot is stored to the widget. Modified parameters
are added to the Rig Inspector and Widget Inspector (under the Edit Mode Start button)
alongside a joystick icon indicating that the parameter is rigged.
6. To set additional snapshots, choose an unassigned snapshot in the widget, then adjust
the parameters. To add more parameters, repeat steps 2–5.
Add a snapshot tag to a slider widget
By default there are two recordable snapshot settings in a slider widget, represented by
snapshot tags: shaded gray circles under the slider, and at either end. When you record
snapshots to these two tags, values along the slider between the two tags are interpolated;
in other words, when you drag the slider, the affected parameters change gradually,
ramping between the values of adjacent snapshots.
You can add additional snapshot tags to the slider widget to create more complex ranges
of parameter change.
1. In Motion, select a rig or widget in the Layers list.
For information about creating rigs and widgets, see Build a simple rig in Motion.
2. In the Rig Inspector or Widget Inspector, double-click an empty area below a slider widget.
A new snapshot tag appears under the slider. Parameters at this position inherit their
values based on the interpolation point between the two snapshot tags adjacent to the
new snapshot tags. You can reorder snapshot tags by dragging them left or right under
the slider.
To record new or additional parameter values for a snapshot tag, see “Record a
snapshot” above.
