Changing the color of function curves

Using different colors can make it easier to distinguish between different properties. For example, the Y values of translation, rotation, and scaling curves display in the same color by default. Changing the color of the Y translation curve differentiates it from the Y rotation and scaling curves.

To change a function curve’s color:

In the FCurves Properties pane, double-click the Color indicator next to the property whose function curve color you want to change.

FCurves window A. Color indicator
In the Color window that opens, define a color for the function curve of the selected property and click Ok.
