#Key Framer
5 messages in this thread
Hey Y'all,
I'm just doing my first animation here, and while there's a lot to like about
the KeyFramer, there's something I can't make it do.
In my camera path, there are two key points that have, say, 10 frames
separating them. What I'd like to do is to change that to, say 15. This means
that may animation will be five frames longer (which is cool). But if I just
add five frames to it, those five frames get tacked on to the end. I don't want
to move Key point 2 five frames along (although I realise that, in effect, this
is what I'm going to be doing), because that will make it five frames closer to
Key point 3. How can I insert 5 new frames (frame points?) between Key points 1
and 2 without shuffling everything else along manually?
You're too kind.

Laurie, <insert 5 new frames between keys> look at the TIME feature. You can
assign an active segment then scale it. The rest of the animation is adjusted
accordingly. Works very well.

You'll have to add the frames to the end and move the key 5 frames or use
Scale Segment and move the key 2 or 3 frames, first choice should be easiest.
Have fun

Do a Time/Define/Segment and make your active segment the 10 frames in
question. Then do a Time/Scale/Segment and specify 15 and then hit those
tutorials… <g>
Hi Laurie,
>>How can I insert 5 new frames (frame points?) between Key points 1 and 2

The easiest way would be to add the five frames to you scene, which as you know
will get tacked on at the end. Then go into Track Info and use Slide to move
key 2. This will allow you to move all keys including and after the one you
selected as a group. This way you retain yout spacing between all other keys
without having to do it one at a time. I hope this helped.
By the way, nice picture………..<g>
