Animating Cameras
Cameras can be animated in the Canvas by the same means used to animate any other
object in a project. Cameras can also be animated through the use of behaviors, including
special Camera behaviors. For more information on Camera behaviors, see Camera
Behaviors.
For more information on animating with keyframes, see Keyframes and Curves.
Isolate
The Isolate command (and Isolate button) temporarily aligns the current view with the
selected object and hides all other objects in the scene, facilitating access to distant or
obscured objects.
The Isolate command is not intended for creating a camera view to be rendered or
exported, but rather to temporarily restrict your view to a single object so you can modify
or manipulate that object more effectively.

1 Select the object to isolate in the Canvas, Layers list, or Timeline.
