17  <p>Initial velocity animation changes the initial speed of a particle at time of emission.</p>

19  <h2>Initial Velocity Animation</h2>
20  <!-- #BeginLibraryItem "/Library/glossary_patricle_initial_velocity.lbi" --> <!-- 初速 ( Initial_velocity ) -->
21  <p><em>Initial velocity</em> is the speed instantaneously inherited when a particle is emitted from a particle emitter. If there is no effect of an <em>external force</em>, such as gravity, the particle will maintain this initial velocity as it moves.</p>
