Shifting bunch of key-frames in the time line ?

Shifting bunch of key-frames in the time line ?

Hi,

Does anybody knows a way to "insert time at the cursor position" - that is shifting all/a bunch the key-frames after the cursor by a given number of frames ?

As "snippets" do not exist yet, I have an issue inserting a small peace of animation in the overall animation (and I do not wish to shift by hand one hundred or more key frames :-( )

Thanks for your support

This is not possible yet

At this time, the only way out that I can see is to render the 2 parts separately and to then insert/edit the videos files

In 'key editor' you can select a group by lefthand mouse clicking and dragging around the keys you want to move. This will allow you to move a group of selected keys at once.

Thanks Andrew,

This does help .

- Is it normal that the old keys remain on the time line (now without associated changes) ?

- Now, I need to do that for each object that is animated at this given time, right ? Is there a way to do that on all objects in the same period (I guess no, as we can see only one object at a given time in the time line, maybe a new feature ? )

Ok do the selection in the F-curve editor, this should help.

Yes to the first question.

I'm currently rewriting the hole parameter system.

The new parameter system will be also made available via scripting. Writing such a function which works on all objects will be possible then.

In general for generating repeating sequences I plan to supports takes or sequences which can be easily repeated.
