Global Clip Controllers rollout
Use global clip controllers when assigning a non-biped animated object (such as a bird flapping its wings) to a delegate in
a crowd simulation. Applications include synthesis of animation activity based on a variety of criteria, such as an object's
speed, acceleration, and pitch.
This group of controls replicates the Track View controls for the same functionality. For an in-depth discussion of global
clip controllers and related topics, see:
