Control-click anywhere in the Vector Envelope to open a shortcut menu that contains a number of commands that can accelerate your workflow.
Vector Envelope shortcut menu commands
Delete Selected Point: Delete the currently selected point.
Insert Point to the Right of Selected Point: Create a point to the right of the currently selected point. A new point is created and is automatically selected.
In cases where you create a new point between two existing points, the segment that previously existed is divided into two equal-sized segments. The sum of the two new segment times is equal to the time of the original undivided segment. This ensures that any points that follow retain their absolute time positions. Existing control point positions in the Triangle and the Planar Pad are fixed, thus ensuring that newly created points don’t affect any previously defined movements.
Copy Point: Copy the currently selected point to the Clipboard.
Paste Point: Paste the copied point from the Clipboard to the currently selected point.
Paste to All Points: Paste the copied point from the Clipboard to all points.
This command is useful for duplicating segment times and XY positions.
Set Segments to Average Time: Change the segment time values of all points to a value that is averaged over the entire Vector Envelope length.
Init to 8/8 Loop: Create 8 new points. The entire timeline is divided into segments of equal length.
WARNING: In cases where you have previously created several points, use of this command will overwrite your existing segments.
Init to 16/16 Loop: Create 16 new points. The entire timeline is divided into segments of equal length.
WARNING: In cases where you have previously created several points, use of this command will overwrite your existing segments.
Clear Envelope: Reset the Vector Envelope.
Note: Only three points will remain when this command is used: Start, Sustain, End.
Copy Envelope: Copy the entire Vector Envelope to the Clipboard.
Paste Envelope: Paste the copied Vector Envelope from the Clipboard.
