- [Instructor] In the previous exercise, we applied an Easy Ease to the micro-interaction and we also learned, you really have no control over the ease. So let's deal with that one right now. And to get yourself started, open the Graph Editor file found in your chapter download. When the file opens, you will see Easy Ease has been applied to the element, the FAB, and when Easy Ease is applied to the keyframes, the acceleration, which is Ease In, and deceleration, which is Ease Out, values are uniform. Let's change that. What I want you to do is select both keyframes and then click this little icon right here, which is the Graph Editor, and it'll open up a graph. Now this curve that you see, is a graphic representation of the Easy Ease and the two anchor points you see here are the keyframes. As you can see from this graph, the element gently accelerates and then gently decelerates, and it's uniform. Basically, it accelerates up to about frame 18, holds for a couple of frames, and then…
