Summary of commands and shortcuts
Linear fanning
| Syntax | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|
| > | 50 > 100 | linear interpolation |
| <> | 50 <> 100 | linear interpolation: marginal devices: 50, central devices 100 (mnemonic trick: In the symbol both signs are directed outside; there the first value is applied; the second value is applied in the center.) |
| >< | 50 >< 100 | contrary: marginal devices: 100, central devices 50 (mnemonic trick: In the symbol both signs are directed inside; there the first value is applied (in the center); the second value is applied at the edge.) |
Alternate fanning
| Syntax | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|
| # | 50 # 100 | alternate values 100/50/100/50 ... |
| # # | 100 # 50 # 0 | alternate values 100/50/0/100/50/0 ... |
Fanning in property grid with mouse wheel
| Key | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| no key pressed | +1 / -1 | dedicated color changes value |
| Shift | +10 / -10 | dedicated color changes value |
| STRG | +1 & -1 | Fanning / values are changed, z.B.118 > 154 |
| ALT | +1 / -1 | values are changed |
| Shift+STRG | +10 / -10 | values are changed |
| Shift+ALT | +10 & -10 | values are changed in block |
Property Panels
