Animate particles

 
 
 

You can animate particles in several ways:

To animate transform attributes of an entire particle object

  1. Select the particle object.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • In the particle tab of the Attribute Editor, enter values for the translate, scale, and rotate attributes.
    • Use the Move Tool, Rotate Tool, and Scale Tool to manipulate the attributes.
  3. Set keys at the desired frames for the attributes. See Animation for details on setting keys.
    NoteYou can key transform attributes of an entire particle object, not for individual particles in a particle object.

    If you use a field or other forces on particles, you can also key the field’s transform attributes. See Work with fields.
