Using Behaviors

New behaviors you apply to an object appear above other behaviors that were applied
previously.

A Behaviors icon also appears to the right of the layer or object name in the Layers tab
and Timeline. Clicking this icon enables and disables all behaviors that have been
applied to that layer or object.

Note: Behaviors can be hidden from view in the Layers tab using the Show Behaviors
button. For more information, see “

Hiding and Showing Effect Objects

” on page 59.

Behavior paths

When certain behaviors are applied to an object, a behavior path appears and displays
the projected path of the object over time. Unlike animation paths created using
keyframes or the path created by the Motion Path behavior, the behavior paths cannot
be edited. To show or hide all types of paths, use the View pop-up menu in the Toolbar.

Newly applied behaviors appear
above those that have been
previously applied. Behaviors
appear with all of their editable
parameters in the Behaviors tab
of the Inspector.
