5 Drag a corner of the Move2D onscreen controls (the box overlay) to change the size of
the element.
6 Drag the top and side triangles to position the element within the frame.
It doesn’t matter where you place the element or how big it is. Just resize it and move
it away from the center.
7 Click the Expand/Collapse button on the mitosis_group node to hide its contents.
8 Repeat the previous steps to size and place all the copies of the mitosis element.
Now you need to stagger the copies in the Time View, to start the animation for each
copy at different places in the time line.
To stagger the mitosis clips in the Time View:
1 Set the Out frame in the Time Bar to 50.
2 Open the Time View and drag each copy of the mitosis clip—but not the original—so
that the bars are randomly staggered, like this:
This causes the animation of each copy to start at a unique spot along the Time Bar.
