Note that the time controls in Edge Animate are actually grouped along with the Stage and are accessible from directly
beneath that panel. The controls are also broken up to allow separate modification of the Playhead time (yellow), and
Pin time (blue), when enabled.
Timeline options
These options can be toggled on or off depending upon current needs as they perform a variety of Timeline-related
functions.
These options include the following:
Auto-Keyframe Mode (K): Selecting this option will enable Edge Animate to generate keyframes for various
properties automatically as they are adjusted along the Timeline. When not selected, any keyframes must be inserted
manually.
Auto-Transition Mode (X): When enabled, this informs Edge Animate to use immediate transitions between
element property adjustments as they are animated across time.
Toggle Pin (P): Toggles the Pin on and off. We'll discuss the Pin in more detail shortly.
There are also a number of options present on the bottom of the Timeline:
Only Show Animated Elements: When this option is selected, only those elements whose properties are animated
will display within the Timeline. Static elements (such as a background image, perhaps) will be hidden.
Timeline Snapping: Toggles Timeline snapping on or off.
Show Grid: Toggles Timeline grid on or off and allows us to set the grid spacing units.
More about the Show Grid control
We are also able to set the grid spacing by clicking on the small arrow to the immediate right of this icon in order to
access a small list of options. We can choose to display grid lines over a selection of measurements across the Timeline.
