Selecting Channels

To create an animation, you select channels with animatable parameters, and then you add keyframes at points in time for which the parameters change. You select animation channels in the Channel hierarchy. Once you select a channel, its curve appears in the Animation Curves window.

To select a channel:

1. In the Main menu, click Animation.
2. In the Channel hierarchy, expand a folder and click a channel to select it. To select all channels in the folder, select the folder.
   Note: You can also select a channel in the Animation Curves window by clicking the inactive curve. You can see inactive curves in the Animation Curves window only when the Hide Inactive Curves button in the Animation Options panel is disabled.
   

   (a) Select folder  (b) Selected channel  (c) Deselected channel  

   Selected channels are highlighted.

3. Click a selected channel to deselect it.
   Note: Deselecting a channel does not change the selection state of that channel's keyframes.
