Artist Help:Fade Attributes
The way that a parameter behaves in response to a cue or scene is determined by its default fade attribute which can be altered by right-clicking on the link and selecting Fade Attribute. You can select multiple links in order to change them simultaneously.
Parameter and Scene Attributes[edit]
