Let??™s say we do not want the Capsule_1 object to rotate until frame 10, rather than
starting its motion right at frame 0. This kind of delayed movement is easy to do
in the Graph Editor.
10. Make sure that the Move tool is selected.While holding down the Ctrl key, click
and move the 0 keyframe to the right. You??™ll see the frame number appear over
the keyframe (Figure 6.37).
Figure 6.37 Holding the Ctrl key and moving selected keyframes adjusts timing.You didn??™t
realize it was this easy, did you?
Note
If you don??™t care to hold down the Ctrl key and use the mouse, you can type in a
keyframe number instead. At the bottom of the screen in the Curves tab, you can
enter the selected keyframe by clicking in the Frame field and typing its frame number.
You also can set values by typing in the Value field.

11. Adjust the value and keyframes of selected objects
and return to Layout to see the effects. You can
adjust values by dragging the keyframes in the
Curve Window or by entering them numerically
in the Curves tab area.
Additionally, you have a number of key controls
available from the Keys drop-down list at the top
of the Graph Editor panel.
