Timing Keyframes
If you need to change the frame or timing of a keyframe in the Timeline view, there are a few different ways to do this. Note that camera keyframes can only be moved to a new location within the same scene.
The following two methods are useful when you want to move a keyframe to a new location, or cut and paste a keyframe.
To synchronize or snap the keyframes as you move them, see About Keyframe Sync Mode and Snapping Keyframes and Sound Tracks.
- In the Timeline view, select one or more keyframes.
The keyframe turns blue.
- Drag the selected keyframe left or right to choose a new position in time. You can only drag it to a new location within the current scene.
While you drag the keyframe, its position relative to the scene is displayed in a black box. The number of frames is also displayed from the original position the new keyframe will be located.
- In the Timeline view, select one or more keyframes.
The keyframe turns blue.
- Select Edit > Cut Camera Keyframes or press Ctrl+X (Windows) or ⌘+X (Mac OS X).
The keyframe is removed and copied to the Clipboard.
- Within the same scene, move the red playhead to the position on which you want to paste the keyframe.
- Select Edit > Paste Camera Keyframes or press Ctrl+V (Windows) or ⌘+V (Mac OS X)).
