Interpolation

Interpolate Panel

When you are animating simple shapes you can use the interpolate toolsto automatically add new breakdown keyframes.

  • Interpolate
  • Interpolates strokes between the previous and next keyframe by adding a single keyframe.When you are on a frame between two keyframes and click the Interpolate buttona new breakdown keyframe will be added. This way you definethe final interpolation for the new stroke.
  • Sequence

  • Interpolate strokes between the previous and next keyframe by adding multiple keyframes.When you are on a frame between two keyframes and click the sequence buttona breakdown keyframe will be added on every frame between the previous and next keyframe.

    • Type
    • Interpolation method to use for the sequence.
  • Interpolate All Layers
  • When enabled, interpolated keyframes will be created on all layers, not only the active one.
  • Interpolate Selected Strokes
  • When enabled, only selected strokes will be interpolated.
  • Remove Breakdowns
  • Removes the breakdowns generated by the interpolate tool.
  • Selection Mask
  • When enabled the interpolation only affect selected strokes.

Note

The Interpolate and Sequence tools work better when the strokes in the previous and next keyframeshave the same amount of points. For example when there are duplicated strokes on different keyframesonly with different location, rotation or scale.
