Curve Tool: Adding Points

To add a point to your curve, use one of the following methods. The keyboard method has the advantage of allowing you to add points at a precise location. In any of these methods, it is possible that adding a point at the requested location will be invalid. If this is the case, you will be instructed why the request is invalid.

If you have the Link Curves Together option enabled, then adding a point on one axis will add a point to all other visible curve. See Linking Curves for details and exceptions.

To add a point with the mouse in the Graph view:

Select the axis you want to add a point to, as described in Selecting the Active Axis.
Double-click at the location you want to add the point. A point will be added to the active curve at this location.

To add a point with the shortcut menu in the Graph view:

Select the axis you want to add a point to, as described in Selecting the Active Axis.
Right-click at the location you want to add the point to display a shortcut menu.
On the shortcut menu, click Insert Point. A point will be added to the active curve at the location that was clicked to display the shortcut menu.

To add a point using the keyboard:

Press the INSERT key.

This will display an Insert Point dialog box.

Select the axis you want to add the point to.
Type in Time (or master position) and Position values.
Click OK.

You can also add points using the Spreadsheet view, see Spreadsheet View and The Insertion Point for details.
