Edit keyframe graphs in the Effect Controls panel
Once you activate keyframing for an effect’s property, you can display the effect’s Value and Velocity graphs. Value
graphs provide information about the value of nonspatial keyframes (such as the Scale property of the Motion effect)
at any point in time. They also display and let you adjust the interpolation between keyframes. You can use the Velocity
graph to fine-tune the rate of change between keyframes.
Effect property’s value and velocity graphs
A. Keyframe marker B. Level graph indicating unchanged value C. Rising graph indicating increasing value D. Falling graph indicating
decreasing value
E. Keyframe F. Value graph G. Velocity graph

In a Timeline panel, select a clip containing an effect containing keyframes you want to adjust.

In the Effect Controls panel, click the triangle to expand the controls for the effect.

Click the triangle next to a property’s name to display its Value and Velocity graphs.
Note: If no keyframes have been added, the graphs appear as flat lines.

(Optional) To better view a graph, hover the Selection or Pen tool over the boundary line below a graph until the
pointer turns into a segment pointer
, and then drag to increase the height of the graph area.
