The Bezier controller is the most versatile controller available in the program.
Bezier controllers interpolate between keys using an adjustable spline curve.
They are the default controller for most parameters.
Use Bezier controllers whenever you want fully adjustable interpolation
between keys. Bezier is the only controller that supports the following:
■ Dragging tangent handles
■ Step tangents for abrupt changes from one key to the next
■ Constant velocity controls
Procedures
To set the tangent type for a key:
1 Select an object that has some animation keys and open the Key Info
(Basic) rollout in the Motion panel.
2 Use the arrows to select a key.
3 Choose a tangent type from the In or Out tangent flyouts.
