Scale curves

To scale a region of curves using Manipulator Scaling

1. Select the scale tool.
2. In the Scale Tool Settings window, set the scaling type to Manipulator.
3. Close the Scale Tool Settings window.
4. In the Graph Editor’s graph view, drag around the region you want to scale.

   A white box with handles at its corners (the manipulator box) appears in the graph view, bounding the selected region.

   

   If you want to reposition the region, -drag the manipulator box.

5. Drag the manipulator box by the corner handles to stretch and compress the contents of the region.
   Note

   • The curve segments adjacent to the region being scaled are altered as you use the manipulator.
   • You can move blocks of keys by -dragging within the region of the manipulator box.

To scale a region of curves using Gestural Scaling

1. Select the scale tool.
2. In the Scale Tool Settings window, set the scaling type to Gestural.
3. Close the Scale Tool Settings window.
4. In the Graph Editor’s graph view, drag around the region you want to scale.
5. -click where you want to insert the scaling pivot point. Drag the cursor horizontally to scale the time values of the region. Drag vertically to scale the value information of the region.

   A horizontal and vertical solid line intersect in a box to indicate the pivot point of the scaling action.
