Set Driven Key window

With the Set Driven Key window, you can link objects so that one object’s attributes can drive or dictate the attributes of another object. See Driven keys and Set Driven Keys overview.

Driver list

This list consists of a left column and a right column. The driver object’s name appears in the left column, and the object’s keyable attributes appear in the right column. Select one of the attributes in the right column as the driver attribute.

List Keyable Driven Attributes: When on, only the keyable attributes of the object being loaded appear in the right-hand columns of the Driver or Driven lists. When off, all attributes—keyable and non-keyable—of the object being loaded appear in the right-hand columns of the Driver or Driven lists. See Edit the keyability of an object.
