What is the purpose of the Animation window in Unity?

• A. The Animation window is used to render animations to video.
• B. The Animation window lets you create new materials at runtime.
• C. The Animation window lets you preview, scrub, and edit animation clips and keyframes.
• D. The Animation window handles physics simulation for animated objects.

Answer: (C)

The Animation window is where you shape how objects move over time. It provides a timeline and playhead so you can preview an animation, scrub through frames to inspect exact values, and edit or add keyframes for properties such as transform components or other animatable parameters. By placing keyframes at specific frames and adjusting their values, you control the timing and changes that occur during the clip, and you can refine the motion by tweaking curves for smoother transitions. This makes it the go-to tool for building and tuning animations. It’s not used for rendering to video, creating materials at runtime, or simulating physics—that work belongs to other parts of Unity.
