Adding Time Warps
Select a biped. > Motion panel > Biped Apps rollout > Mixer > Motion Mixer
menu bar > Clips > Add Time Warp
Graph Editors menu > Motion Mixer... > Clips > Add Time Warp
You can cause varying changes in speed throughout a clip with a time warp.
Adding a time warp to a clip allows you visually to squash and stretch time
over different parts of the clip. You can use a time warp to:
■ Cause the object to do some parts of the motion quickly and others slowly.
■ Cause a particular motion within the clip to occur at a specific time.
You use a time warp by picking a time within the motion clip and dragging
that time's motion to another time in the same clip. The overall time of the
clip is unchanged, so the object takes the same amount of time to do the entire
motion, but does some parts quickly and others slowly.
Dashed lines appear on a time-warped clip in the Mixer to indicate the motion
speed at different points in the clip.
Time warp added to topmost clip.
Warping a clip's time requires two steps. First a time warp must be added
to the clip with the Clips > Add Time Warp menu option. Then you turn on
Editable Time Warps to see the dashed lines and adjust the clip's timing.
