Animation and Keyframes
Animate layer and effect properties with keyframes in a composition.
Updated June 21, 2026Animation and keyframes
Animatable properties show a keyframe control in the Inspector or Effect Controls.
Create animation
- Move the composition playhead to the starting time.
- Enable or add a keyframe for the property.
- Move to another time.
- Change the value.
Oraphim interpolates supported values between keys.
Edit keys
Timeline keys can be selected, moved horizontally in time, duplicated, or deleted. Multi-selection supports group movement, and scaling changes spacing around the chosen pivot.
Transform animation
Position, scale, rotation, anchor, and opacity are common animation targets. 3D-enabled layers add Z position and X/Y rotation while preserving the same keyframe workflow.
Effects and text
Supported effect parameters and text properties can be animated using the same property system. Keep complex animation readable by naming layers and limiting unrelated keys on one layer.
