  • Problem with bezier curves in graph editor

    Posted by Ornella Jacobson on January 28, 2019 at 6:24 pm

    Hi everyone,

    This might be a really basic problem, but as I haven’t used After Effects in a while, I can’t figure out how to solve it:
    I have a simple diagonal movement of a layer, from A to B. Now I want to edit the interpolation in the graph editor.
    Problem is, I get no bezier handles in the editor (Shown in screenshot), unless I separate the dimensions, but then I need to edit X and Y separately, which sucks for a diagonal movement.

    Does someone know the solution for this?
    Thanks!

    You need to use the speed graph instead of the value graph.

    Or, if you are like me and even after years of using After Effects still can’t get the hang of the speed graph, you could buy this: https://aescripts.com/flow/

    Yeah, the speed graph seems horrible, it’s like it just does whatever it wants.
    Thanks! I’ll check out the script 🙂
