Element Inspector overlay reference

Use the Element Inspector overlay to configure knots, tangents, and the flow of a spline.

To access the Element Inspector overlay, select knots or tangents on splines in the Scene view.

Property	Description
Knot position	Set a knot's position. This property is visible only when you select knots.
Knot rotation	Set a knot's rotation. This property is visible only when you select knots.
Linear	Select the Linear tangent mode for a knot's tangents.
Auto	Select the Auto tangent mode for a knot's tangents.
Bezier	Select the Bezier tangent mode for a knot's tangents.
Bezier	Select the Bezier mode for a knot's tangents if the knot is in Bezier tangent mode. The following Bezier modes are available: Mirrored Continuous Broken
In	Set the magnitude and direction of the knot's In tangent. The In tangent defines the curvature of the segment that enters the knot. This property is visible only when you select knots.
Out	Set the magnitude and direction of the knot's Out tangent. The Out tangent defines the curvature of the segment that exits the knot. This property is visible only when you select knots.
Magnitude	Set the magnitude of a tangent. A tangent's magnitude determines how much that tangent affects the curvature of its respective segment. A high magnitude value increases a tangent's influence on a segment's curvature and a low value decreases it. This property is visible only when you select tangents.
Direction	Set the direction that a tangent points to from its knot. This property is visible only when you select tangents.
