Preset pop-up menu: A pop-up menu, found in various Inspectors, used to choose a
preset text, shape, gradient, or other style to apply to an object. These are the same
presets found in the Motion Library. For example, the Shape Style preset pop-up menu
lets you apply a style to the selected shape (including paint strokes). Through this menu,
you can also save custom text and shape presets to the Library.
Animation menu: A hidden pop-up menu on the right side of many parameter rows in
the Inspector. The Animation menu lets you perform animation- and parameter-related
tasks: adding keyframes, assigning Parameter behaviors, managing rigs, and so on. To
open an Animation menu in the Inspector, move the pointer to the right side of the
parameter you want to animate and, when the downward arrow appears, click it.
For more information on animating parameters using options in the Animation menu,
see Animation Menu.
Rasterization Indicator
In the Properties Inspector, a small red “R” indicator appears when a group becomes
rasterized. This icon is called a rasterization indicator. The rasterization indicator is not a
control; it is an alert telling you that a group is rasterized.
