Apple Motion 4 - Manual (Page 416)

As you can see, the controls in the HUD consolidate two of the parameters available in
the Behaviors tab into a single, graphical control. There are times, however, when it may
be more desirable to use a behavior’s individual parameters to finesse the effect you’re
trying to achieve with greater detail, including the ability to enter specific parameter
values.
To display the HUD for a behavior
1 Do one of the following:
• Select the behavior you want to modify in the Layers tab, Timeline, or Behaviors tab of
the Inspector.
• Control-click an object in the Canvas, then choose a behavior from the Behaviors
submenu in the shortcut menu.
Note: If the HUD doesn’t appear, you may need to choose Window > Show HUD (or
press F7 or D).
2 Make adjustments to the behavior using the controls in the HUD.
To cycle through the HUDs of an object
Do one of the following:
µ
Click the disclosure triangle in the title bar of the HUD (to the right of the title) to open
a pop-up menu that displays all of the behaviors and filters that are applied to that object.
Choose an item from this list to display its HUD.
Click the disclosure
triangle and select a
behavior or filter to
display the respective
HUD.
µ
Select an object in the Canvas, then press D to cycle forward through all available HUDs
for that object. To cycle in reverse, press Shift-D.
Modifying Parameters in the Behaviors Tab of the Inspector
The Behaviors tab of the Inspector displays every behavior that’s applied to the selected
object. A disclosure triangle to the left of each behavior’s name reveals all of that behavior’s
parameters. Unlike the HUD, the Behaviors tab displays every parameter for a behavior.
To display the Behaviors tab
1 Select an object with an applied behavior.
