Animating scene objects
Animated property descriptions
The Animation Editor allows you to create animated scenes (animations) by changing
certain properties of the objects in a scene over a period of time to create visual effects. Not
all object properties can be animated, and while some animated properties are common to
all object types, others are available only to certain object types.
As figure 7-16 shows, the properties that are eligible to be animated are listed in the Scene
Tree when the Animated Properties setting is selected from the Scene Tree’s context menu
(see
“Displaying the animated properties in the Scene tree” on page 7-23 ).
