Chapter 19: Using the Motion Window and Controlling the Sequence Path

19

Using the Ease in / Ease out

Sliders

1. Select the 
rst Motion Point and move the [Ease 

out] slider located on the left side of the Motion

window to the far right position.

Notice how the Sequence Path now curves.

The [Ease out] slider controls the Joint value from

the selected Point to the next Point, and has a

maximum Ease out effect at the far right position.

A Ease out effect creates a Sequence Path in which

a Joint value will change gradually at the start, and

reach a maximum speed right before the next Point.

It gives an acceleration to the movement, beginning

with slowly moving away from the selected Point.

2. Select the third Motion Point, and move the [Ease 

in] slider located on the left side of the Motion

window to the maximum right position.

Notice that the Sequence Path has changed again.

 

The [Ease in] slider controls the Joint value from

the Point before the selected Point up to the selected

Point, and has a maximum Ease in effect at the far

right position. The opposite of the Ease out effect,

a Ease in effect creates a Sequence Path in which

the Joint value changes fastest at the start and slows

down to a minimum just before the next Point. The

Ease in effect will give the impression of a rapid

start, then a deceleration to a slow stop.

movement.
