To create additional space in the keyframe graph:
1 Drag the Motion tab from the Viewer to the Timeline.
The Motion tab is now a tab within the Timeline.
2 When you’ve finished making adjustments, do one of the following:
 Drag the tab back to the Viewer.
 Control-click the tab, then choose Close Tab from the shortcut menu.
The Motion tab reappears in the Viewer.
To add more keyframes:
1 Move the playhead to another point in the clip where you want to set a keyframe.
2 Do one of the following:
 Adjust the appropriate setting control.
 Type a number in the appropriate number field.
 Click a parameter’s keyframe button to add a keyframe with the current value of
the parameter.
 Hold down the Option key and click a parameter’s keyframe graph line where you
want to add the keyframe.
This doesn’t change the parameter’s current value; it simply adds a keyframe with the
same value. You can add as many keyframes as you want by clicking repeatedly with
the Option key held down.
Adjusting and Deleting Keyframes
After you add keyframes to a parameter, you can adjust keyframes to produce the desired
effect. You can modify individual keyframes, interpolated values between keyframes, or all
keyframes at one time. You can also move and delete keyframes at any time.
To adjust the value of a single keyframe, do one of the following:
m Move the playhead to the keyframe you want to adjust, then drag the appropriate
setting control to a new value.
m Move the playhead to the keyframe you want to adjust, type a new value in the
appropriate parameter’s number field, then press Return.
