= SUMMARY =

This article provides tips for smoothing out Fcurves.

= MORE INFORMATION =

The following are several methods you can use:


 * You can make minor adjustments by editing the Fcurve Key’s control bars.
 * Choose FcrvEdit and adjust the Fit Spline to Fcurve’s Tolerance value. This will affect the precision of the resultant Fcurve.
 * You can run the Fcurve through Convert to Raw Fcurve and then perform the Fit Spline to Fcurve operation. Often, converting the Fcurve to a Raw Fcurve type adds a key for each frame, but once the Raw Fcurve is converted using Fit Spline to Fcurve, the result will show a smooth, curvilinear interpolation.
