Graph Editor Scale Keys options

Note: This section is about the Scale Keys options in the Graph Editor Edit menu. For information about the Scale Keys Options in the Key menus, see Scale Key Options.
Note: You can change the size of keys appearing in the Graph Editor Graph view with the Key Size option in the Graph Editor section of the Animation (Settings) Preferences.
Time Range

Specifies the time range of the keyset’s animation curves. Select from the following options:

All

Sets no limit on the time range.

Start/End

Sets a time range from Start Time to End Time.

Time Slider

Sets a time range defined by the Playback Start and End times of the Time Slider.

Start Time

Sets the start of the time range. Start Time is only available when Start/End is on.

End Time

Sets the end of the time range. End Time is only available only when Start/End is on.

Method

Select one of the following options:

Scale/Pivot

Applies multipliers to the selected range for time and value. This also sets a pivot point from which the scaling takes place on each axis.

When on, the animation is scaled without affecting the curves of the animation before and after the specified range. Also, the keys and animation curve segments adjacent to the scaled region are shifted in time by the amount the scaled range has been compressed or expanded, and their shapes are preserved.

Start/End

Compresses or expands the selected range to fit in the range specified by the New Start/End Times fields.

Only scale specified keys

When on, Scale Keys only affects selected keys. When off, Scale Keys affects all keys.

Time scale/pivot

Sets the time multiplier. The first field sets the value that multiplies all the times of the keyset. The second field sets the pivot point from which the scaling takes place.

Tip: You can cut the duration of a range of animation in half using the Time Scale/Pivot option.
Value scale/pivot

Sets the value multiplier. The first field sets the value that multiplies all the values of the keyset. The second field sets the pivot point from which the scaling takes place.

New start/end times

Sets the time range into which the keyset is compressed or expanded. New Start/End Times is only available when Start/End is on.
