Keyframes and Curves

Animation Menu States

Depending on whether or not a parameter is currently animated, and whether or not
the playhead is positioned on a keyframe, the Animation menu displays a different
icon. This provides the ability to determine the status of that parameter at a glance.

The Reset Button

Each parameter set in the Inspector is equipped with a Reset button. A parameter set
might be a filter, or it might be a category of effects or transformations, such as
Transform, Blending, or other items in the Properties tab.

The Reset button removes all keyframes applied to all of the parameters within the set
and restores those parameters to their default state.
