  • Change the name in the Behaviors.

    Hi, ????
    I am making many audio behaviors on one JPG over time. Their names are defaulted as Audio, Audio 1; Audio 2 etc.
    I need to make these names more descriptive. I can’t use the source material because they have their own descriptive names.
    Thank you,
    Terry

    You can rename any behavior (or any filter or mask or layer or group) to anything you want. Just double-click the name in the Layers list.

    Hi Mark, ????
    There are no behaviors in the layers list. I go to properties of the picture and add a audio parameter there. Then the Behaviors window automatically opens up and I make my adjustments there.

    If I add a move behavior to the project the other way, I don’t know how to make it controlled by audio. It’s all key frames then.

    Thanks,
    Terry

    If the behavior isn’t appearing below the layer you have it applied to in the layers list, then you have disabled the view of behaviors – small icon at the bottom of the layers list.

    [Terry Maloney] “There are no behaviors in the layers list.”

    That’s because you have disabled the Show Behaviors button at the bottom of the Layers panel:

    Turn it back on to see your behaviors in the Layers Panel where you will be able to rename them.
