Lattice Deform Keys Tool

In the Graph Editor, click , or select Edit > Transformation Tools > Lattice Deform Keys Tool to manipulate curves with the Lattice Deform Keys Tool.

The Lattice Deform Keys tool lets you draw a lattice deformer around groups of keys, so that you can manipulate many keys at once. This tool gives you a high-level of control over your animation curves. See also Manipulate curves with the lattice manipulator.

Once you draw a lattice around a group of keys, you can then move the control points of the lattice to deform the affected animation curves or scale the lattice points around a picked point to transform the affected curves.

You can also use the Lattice Deform Keys Tool to deform keys that lie along a single (horizontal or vertical) graph view axis.

Select Transformation Tools > Lattice Deform Keys Tool > to open the following Lattice Settings.

Columns

Specifies the number of columns for the current lattice manipulator. The minimum number of columns is 2 and maximum number is 20.

Rows

Specifies the number of rows for the current lattice manipulator. The minimum number of rows is 2 and the maximum number is 20.

Falloff

Specifies the lattice manipulator’s level of influence or falloff value.

Middle Button Scales

When on, you can scale the active control points around the current lattice point.
