User Manual

Unlocked points added to the motion path are not displayed on the Displacement spline.
You can add unlocked points to the Displacement spline as well. Additional unlocked
points in the Spline Editor can be used to make the object’s motion pause briefly.
To pause motion along a motion path using an unlocked point:
 Select a locked point on the Displacement spline and then hold down the Command
key while dragging the point horizontally to another frame. The point is copied as an
unlocked point to the new frame.
Create a pause in the motion by copying locked points.
Knowing the difference between locked and unlocked points gives you independent control
over the spatial and temporal aspects of motion paths.
Locking and Unlocking Points
You can change an unlocked point into a locked point, and vice versa, by selecting the point(s)
and choosing the Lock Point option from the contextual menu.
