Apple Motion 4 - Manual (Page 1476)

Map Animation: The Map Animation pop-up sets the timing of the animation to either
To Entire Object or To Selection. In a basic example, the Scale parameter is added to the
Sequence Text behavior. Next, the Scale parameter is keyframed to animate from 100%
to 250% over 10 seconds. With the given example, use the following guidelines to
understand the difference between the two Map Animation options.
Original text with Sequence behavior applied
(before animation begins)
• To Entire Object (does not require a keyframed animation): Leaves the original animation
timing of the sequence across the entire text layer untouched, and the selection follows
the animation at its current point in time. Using the above example, in which Scale
animates from 100% to 250% over 10 seconds, the first character in the text grows
slightly and returns to its original value, the second character grows a little more, the
third a little more, and so on until finally the last character grows to the full 250% value.
