Working with Keyframes
Keyframes define the values of a CSS property at specific points in your animation. Sequotion provides a visual timeline for managing them.
Adding keyframes
Section titled “Adding keyframes”When you add a property track, two keyframes are created at 0% and 100% with the property’s default value.
To add a keyframe in between:
- Move the playhead to the desired position
- Click the diamond button in the property row
Editing keyframe values
Section titled “Editing keyframe values”Select a keyframe by clicking it on the timeline or using the navigation arrows. Then edit:
- Value — the property value at that point (e.g.,
0.5for opacity,20px 0for translate) - Easing — the curve used to interpolate to the next keyframe
- Position — the percentage position on the timeline
Moving keyframes
Section titled “Moving keyframes”Drag a keyframe diamond on the timeline to reposition it. The 0% and 100% boundary keyframes cannot be moved.
Deleting keyframes
Section titled “Deleting keyframes”Select a keyframe and press Delete. Boundary keyframes (0% and 100%) cannot be deleted.
Multi-selection
Section titled “Multi-selection”Hold Shift and click multiple keyframes to select them. You can then edit their values, easing, or position simultaneously — shared values are shown, and mixed values display a placeholder.
Easing
Section titled “Easing”Each keyframe has an easing curve that controls the interpolation to the next keyframe. Click the easing button to open the easing editor, where you can:
- Choose from presets (ease, ease-in, ease-out, ease-in-out, and more)
- Edit the cubic-bezier curve directly
