How do you manipulate action timeline? I mean, what's the structure? There seems to be function ActivateAction (or something like that) that "activates action timeline for editing". What does this mean?

Let's say I activate action for a bone layer. Does every keyframe I add to any layer under the bone layer go into action timeline I activated? And I just leave by ActivateAction(--- Mainline ---)? Or how does it work?

Yes, once you've activated an action timeline, and keyframes will be added to the action. ActivateAction(""), with an empty string, returns to the main timeline.

ActivateAction(""), with an empty string, returns to the main timeline

I think it's ActivateAction(nil), not an empty string.

You're right. An empty string just creates an unnamed action. I got that confused with the test for the mainline: (moho.layer:CurrentAction() ~= "")

EDIT: Thanks!
