- The two buttons in the Shape tab will also work when each letter shape is in each composition.

- When creating an animation, a bone is created to adjust the curve speed. You can use “Invalid” to specify points that will not be taken into account when creating the bone.
- On the other hand, “Definitive” always specifies the points that will be used to create the bone. The points defined in “Definitive” take precedence.
- In the TC (Time Code) field, you can decide the length of time for the animation.
- When “InPoint” is unchecked, the animation will start from the indicator.
- If “Ease out” is unchecked, the keyframe will be linear.
- “Restore” will delete the animation you created and restore the layer to its original state if possible.
- Decide the length in the TC field of the Layer tab, click on “Stretch Key” to change the length of the keyframe you created.
