Hi!

the weight attributes on an orient constraint are float on default. Just type in the float value you want to key and it should accept it.

I hope it helps!

Thanks ! So I misexplained my problem. I have create a driven key with a controller (from 1 to -1) but when I move this controller, the weight change instantly.

There is a clip to show it.

I see, there could be some explanations for this. But I think it is most likely that your driven key is in stepped mode instead of linear mode.

Select the constraint, then open the graph editor (Windows-> Animation Editors -> Graph Editor).

The driven key animations are displayed like normal animation curves, select the attribute on the left to single them out. if they look like this:

It means that they are in stepped mode, so you can just select the keyframes and then use the "Linear Tangents" button:

If that isn't the case, please attach a picture of the animation curves of your set driven keys, that will help me find out how to fix your problem.

Thanks a lot ! Didn't know that a driven key was displayed like a normal animation !
