# Parameter colors

In both the dope sheet and curve views, colors are used to indicate which parameter a key relates to. In both views, the list on the left-hand side provides a reference; which is shown in the image below.

{% hint style="info" %}
In the dope sheet view, the vertical position of keys aligns with the reference on the left-hand side.
{% endhint %}
