Objective

Enhance the Curve View in the Dynamics Editor and Curves Filter.

Design Revisions


Grid Line Visibility

Current State: See the Curves Filter or Dynamics Curve graphs.

Issue: Grid lines in the Curve View are not consistently visible across different background tones.

Solution: Added rendering modes to grid lines, ensuring consistent visibility regardless of the background tone.

Implementation: Implemented rendering modes for grid lines, ensuring consistent visibility across various background tones in the Curve View.

Benefits: Enhanced usability through consistent grid line visibility makes the Curve View easier to interpret and use across different visual contexts.

Coordinate Display Refinement

Current State: X, Y coordinate display in the Curve View.

Issue: The current X, Y coordinate display uses block highlighting, which is visually obtrusive.

Solution: Refined the X, Y coordinate display to avoid block highlighting, improving user experience.

Implementation: Redesigned the X, Y coordinate display to eliminate block highlighting, improving readability and reducing visual distraction.

Benefits: Refined coordinate displays improve visual clarity and reduce interface clutter, making the Curve View more intuitive to use.

Curve Point Visibility

Current State: Curve points in the Curve View.

Issue: Curve points are difficult to see and select, especially on high-resolution displays (e.g., 4K).

Solution: Enhanced curve point visibility and selection, optimizing for 4K displays and ensuring ease of use.

Implementation: Enhanced the visibility and selection of curve points, particularly on high-resolution (e.g., 4K) displays, for a more accessible user experience.

Benefits: Optimized for high resolution displays, ensuring seamless usability on 4K displays and beyond with improved curve point visibility.

Shift-Key Curve Movement

Current State: Curve manipulation in the Curve View.

Issue: No mechanism exists to move all curve points simultaneously, limiting flexibility in curve adjustments.

Solution: Added a new feature: holding the Shift key allows all curve points to move together, enabling global curve adjustments.

Implementation: Introduced the ability to move all curve points simultaneously by holding down the Shift key, providing a quick and efficient way to adjust the entire curve.

Benefits: Increased flexibility through simultaneous movement of all curve points enables efficient global adjustments and streamlined workflows for complex curve editing.
