Using the Add Keyframe Mode Menu and the Delete Keyframe Mode Menu
Before you begin adding keyframes, it is important to understand the terms your Avid editing application uses to refer to parameters and parameter groups. These terms are on the menu that appears when you add or delete a keyframe using the Add Keyframe button on the Effect Editor toolbar.
In the following descriptions, group refers to the parameter category.
  Active Parameter — The parameter that is currently active. For example, a slider that you clicked is pink.
Add To Active Parameter — The keyframe appears in the keyframe track or keyframe graph for the active parameter only.
Delete From Active Parameter — The Avid editing application removes selected keyframes in the keyframe track or keyframe graph for the active parameter only.
  Active Group — The group to which the active parameter belongs.
Add To Active Group — Keyframes appear in the keyframe tracks or keyframe graphs of all parameters that are in the same group as the active parameter. If the active group is part of a larger group (for example, Color is a subgroup or subcategory of Border), keyframes appear only in the active group and not in the larger group. The parameter group does not have to be enabled.
Delete From Active Group — The Avid editing application deletes selected keyframes from the keyframe tracks or keyframe graphs of all parameters that are in the same group as the active parameter. The parameter group does not have to be enabled.
  Open Groups — Groups that you opened by clicking the triangular opener next to the group name.
Add To Open Groups — Keyframes appear in the keyframe tracks or keyframe graphs of all parameters in groups that are currently open, whether the group is enabled or disabled.
Delete From Open Groups — The Avid editing application deletes selected keyframes from keyframe tracks or keyframe graphs of all parameters in groups that are currently open, whether the group is enabled or disabled.
  Enabled Groups — The Avid editing application does not use enabled groups. It treats all groups as enabled at all times.
Add To Enabled Groups — Keyframes appear in all keyframe tracks. This is the same as Add To All Parameters.
Delete From Enabled Groups — The Avid editing application deletes selected keyframes from all keyframe tracks. This is the same as Delete From All Parameters.
  Open Graphs — Keyframe tracks that you opened by clicking the triangular opener next to the keyframe track.
Add To Open Graphs — Keyframes appear in the keyframe graphs of all parameters with open graphs.
Delete From Open Graphs — The Avid editing application deletes selected keyframes from the keyframe graphs of all parameters with open graphs.
  All Parameters — Every parameter represented in the Effect Editor that has a keyframe track and is therefore keyframeable.
Add To All Parameters — Keyframes appear in all keyframe tracks.
Delete From All Parameters — The Avid editing application deletes selected keyframes from all keyframe tracks.
