Random Phase

Random Phase

Use this command to jump to a random position within an animation. The command sets the phase of every animated modulation to a random value. By using this command repeatedly, you can explore an animation's phase space, i.e. its range of possible states. The animation can be running or stopped. The shortcut is F9.

Only animated modulations (those with a non-zero Phase Speed) are affected. The affected properties will have green or orange upward-pointing triangles to the left of their names in the Properties bar. If no animated modulations exist, the command is disabled.
