Graph Editor – “Separate Dimensions” button ghosted – XYZ
Quick question,
How do I activate the separate XYZ dimensions in the graph editor? There is a button that says XYZ and does this when the button is not ghosted. But sometimes the button is ghosted and I don’t understand why.I have the layer checked as 3d and keyframes in the layer with different xyz coordinates. Totally stumped.
I’m curious why it’s not always selectable.
Any ideas?

See “Separate dimensions of Position to animate components individually”. Make sure that you have one or more Position properties selected.

I wish it were that simple. That’s what I assume would make it work. That did not work earlier. I cannot reproduce the problem now. It’s just sometimes it’s ghosted no mater what I do. I’m just trying to figure out the logic behind it.
Works fine now. Clicking on the “position” or on the keyframes did not fix it earlier. Now clicking on either works fine — all I did was add expressions to other layers. I have no idea still.
If I figure out something I’ll be sure to send a bug report to adobe — using CS4 on Mac OSX 10.6

I’m having the same problem, specifically with a camera’s Point of Interest. I can separate dimensions of the origin, but I can’t separate the PointOfInterest, it’s ghosted.
Any idea why this would be? I’ve read through the help that Todd provided, but it doesn’t seem to address why this could be.
I assume the PointOfInterest is nothing more than an xyz transform like any other?

Any new info on this problem? From Adobe perhaps (hopefully)?
POI’s dimensions can’t be seperated so it seems.
And the POI can’t be ‘expressioned’ to follow a Null either.Help?
