The Keyframe Editor
The Keyframe Editor is where you can view and modify the individual attributes of
filters, behaviors, and other effects over time. Each parameter can be displayed as a
curve showing how the value changes over time. You can manipulate the points within
that curve (called keyframes) to create a variety of powerful effects. For more
