The easiest way to animate a node is to use the circles next to its parameter names. These circles also indicate which parameters can be animated and they have several states. Some parameters, for example “Position” or “Rotation” have three values for their X, Y, and Z directions. If you want to animate these values individually please click on the “+” symbol. Each circle/dot also has a right-click menu and the entries depend on the state.
| Grey circle | No animation. |
|---|---|---|
| Red dot | Animation key (also indicated by a red line in the timeline). |
| Red circle | Parameter is animated, but there is no key at the current point in time. |
| Green dot with lines | Parameter has an expression. |
| Lock symbol | Parameter is locked and cannot be changed. |
