  • stuck with keyframes in Motion 5

    I have just animated an object to go from one point to another in a curve with keyframes.
    Now I want it to stay in the spot it ended in and then start a different motion further along the timeline.
    But is automatically connects all the keyframes so that the second motion starts immediately after the first.
    How can I make it so that I have two separate animations?

    Make the value of the ending keyframe of your first animation match the value of the starting keyframe for your second animation, then set the interpolation for the curve between the keyframes to Constant (or Linear should work as well) by right-clicking the curve in the Keyframe editor.
