Chapter 5
Using Behaviors
397
By default, the anchor point is located at the center of each object. Prior to adding 
behaviors to animate these objects, you need to move the anchor points so that the 
objects move the way they’re supposed to. In this example, the hands should spin 
about the center of the clock face, not the center of the hand itself, and the pendulum 
should swing from its top.
2
Choose the Adjust Anchor Point tool, and move the anchor points of both hand objects 
and the pendulum object to the area that should appear to be attached to the rest of 
the clock.
3
Now that the composition is set up to be animated, the only remaining thing to do is 
to assign behaviors to each of the objects. Select the minute hand object, and open 
the Properties tab in the Inspector. Control-click the Rotation parameter, then choose 
Rate from the shortcut menu to apply the Rate parameter behavior.
