Modifying Tangents to Reshape the Animation Curve

To modify the tangents in the Animation Channel Editor.

  1. From the Tangents box, select Auto.
  2. From the Interpolation box, select an interpolation type. Only animation curves that use Bézier, Hermite, or Natural interpolation have keyframes with tangent handles.
  3. From the Tools box, choose Select and move the tangent handles.

    As you move the handles, the slope on each side of the keyframe is modified independently.

    Note: You must break tangent handles to move them independently. From the Tools box, select Break Tangents and click the tangents you want to break.

To reset tangents to their default:

  1. From the Tools box, select Auto Tangent.
  2. Click the handle of the tangent you want to reset.
