# Curve Effects

<mark style="background-color:yellow;">**Curve effects let you control many transform properties and let you choose their animation over time.**</mark>

{% embed url="<https://files.gitbook.com/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FXuXUTa2X5PYuYL6yRvl1%2Fuploads%2FwXw0CGen3vJR0rsg7umL%2FClipboard-20251116-220652-632.mp4?alt=media&token=23d9ac2c-d7bb-4aeb-9e2f-daf3005e34dd>" %}

You can create a custom curve effect from the "Special" Effect submenu.

You have the same [Phases](/text-animator-unity/effects/how-to-edit-effects/phases.md)settings, and in addition it's important to notice the "**Weight**" curve (which goes from 0 to 1 and should loop if you want a seamless effect).

{% hint style="info" %}
We are working to add new properties from the next versions as well!&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Thanks to Text Animator 3.0 and the new Core Library, effects *data* is separated from *implementation*, meaning that we can improve the backend/structure without altering your data! (or provide better porting steps/auto-fixes anyways)!

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.febucci.com/text-animator-unity/customization/create-your-own-effects/curve-effects.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
