Creating Animations 217

3. Choose to add keyframe(s) at a Location before or after the currently

selected keyframe or before/after the first or last keyframe.

4. (Optional) Check Insert blank keyframes if you don't want to include

run forward objects in your keyframes. Blank frames are useful "filler"

frames that add breaks in your animation for messages, logos, etc.

5. Click OK.

An inserted frame will honour any animation runs that may transect it if the

Insert blank keyframes setting remains unchecked (by creating an additional

tweened object). If checked, the blank frame will break any transecting

animation path(s) and not add tweened objects.

Once you've created a keyframe sequence you can sub-divide or split any

selected keyframe further.

To split a selected keyframe:

• Click the Split keyframe button on the Storyboard tab.

• From the dialog, enter the number of divisions that the keyframe is to

be split into, then click OK. Each new keyframe's duration is an equal

division of the original keyframe's duration.

To view or edit a particular keyframe:

• Select a keyframe in the Storyboard tab.

- or -

• Click an object in an animation run that you know is associated with a

specific keyframe (the keyframe will then be selected).

Use your keyboard's Page Up and Page Down keys to navigate

along your animation storyboard.

To delete a keyframe:

• Select the keyframe and choose .
