Remarks

You may also apply key-frame animation to properties such as Offset. For example, the following excerpt from the provided custom XML file demonstrates how to linearly interpolate the value of the Offset property. In this case, the Offset element takes on several Point child elements.

...
  <Offset type="float3" evaluation="Linear" >
    <Point time="0.000000" value="-0.209169, 0.114583, 0.000000" />
    <Point time="0.900000" value="-0.209169, 0.114583, 0.000000" />
    <Point time="1.000000" value="-0.209169, 0.114583, 0.000000" />
  </Offset>
