Blend-Point Editor:  Y-axis Values 

Two Motion-ValuesRed-14-1Red-14-2 (for each Motion-Derivative).

It is important to know that there are two motion-values at a Blend-Point. There is a motion-value at the:

End of the Previous-Segment

AND at the:

Start of the Selected-Segment.

Also, because there are four motion-derivatives, there is a total of eight (8) motion-values at each Blend-Point.

Note:

The image shows only the Position motion-graph, the Position motion-value data-boxes, and the Position Control-Buttons. Each segment, there are also:

Velocity, Acceleration, and Jerk motion-graphs

The Control-Buttons for the Position motion-derivative allows you to edit the two motion-values.

Red-14-3 End Control Button in the Do Edit state.

You can edit the motion-value at the End of the Previous-Segment.

This control-button has three(3) states - Do Edit, Do Not Edit, and Can Not Edit


Red-14-4 Match Control button in the Do Not Match state

The End-Position and the Start-Position motion-values can be different.

This control-button has two(2) states - Do Match and Do NOT Match


Red-14-5 Start Control button - in the Do Edit state.

You can edit the motion-value at the Start of the Selected-Segment.

This control-button has three(3) states - Do Edit, Do Not Edit, and Can Not Edit
