Parameters Panel¶
Introduction¶
The Parameters Panel is in many ways the heart of the Synfig interface. This is where all the Parameter of the Layer you create are edited, and in some less obvious ways.
The layout of the Parameters Panel is quite simple - it is a table.
Stars Layer Parameters¶
The first column, named Name, is simply an expandable tree listing
of the parameters of the selected layer. Most layers do not have many
nested parameters, with the exception of the Vertex List on most
Geometry Layer.
The second column, Value, is where the data for each of the
parameters are listed. Several different types of data can be shown
here.
The third column, Type, show the data type.
The last column, Time Track, display a simplified
Timetrack Panel

When the dialog is in this state, context-clicking on the parameters will allow parameters to be Linking between the two layers. (write more)
Default Parameters¶
There are three parameters that are shared between nearly every layer:
