This means the object is not
rotated at frame 0. As the object rotates in successive frames, its rotation value is
reflected in the Curve Window.
It can be hard to identify that first keyframe in the curve. To simplify this, we??™ll
use the Graph Editor??™s Custom Point Color function.
6. While still in the Graph Editor, press d to call up the Graph Editor Options panel
with its Display tab open. Click Custom Point Color at the bottom of the list, and
the color selector will become
active, as in Figure 6.33. The
default color, white, is fine, so
simply click OK to close the
panel. Your keyframes in the
Curve Window will now be
easier to identify.
A number of other commands
within the Options panel can
help you when working with
the Graph Editor. You can also
access these commands and
others easily by clicking the
Display drop-down list from the top of the Graph
Editor interface. Figure 6.34 shows the list of commands
for Display.
7. In the Curve Window, click the first keyframe to
select it. Be sure that the Move edit mode button
is selected. It is the first button located above the
Curves tab, beneath the Curve Window, as shown in
Figure 6.
