When you use a spinner to animate a parameter, a few right-click options help manage the animation.
Alt +right-click the spinner arrows to remove an animation key on the current frame.
Ctrl+Shift +right-click the spinner arrows to remove all animation on this parameter.
When animating with Set Key, create an animation key by changing a spinner value and then Shift +right-clicking the spinner arrows.
(When you animate with Auto Key, simply changing the spinners value sets a key.)
