Hi everybody,

I have a question about the timeline and keys.

Let's say I have animation both in the bone layer,
and in another layer where I have animated vertices.

Now I have a need to adjust the animation as a whole.

But I don't find a way to show all the keys on the timeline to adjust everything at one go.



The last (what i want to see) is a mockup what I expect when I select both layers. This way I could select all the neccessary keys and move them as a chunk.

(In toon boom it's possible to tag layers, so only tagged layers and their keys show up on the timeline. Is there a possibility for something like this in AS?)


So if anybody has some info from this, I'd be happy to hear it!

Currently, you'd have to use Animation>Rescale Keyframes. If your ranges are the same, the keys get moved instead of scaled.

Thanks for the suggestion Synthsin,

But this doesn't seem to make anything easier. I'd anyway have to go through both of the layers and rescale them separately. The rescale doesn't show bones and the vertex at the same time.

I just don't understand. If someone has animation already done, how would you adjust the timing easily if you cant have them on the timeline at the same time?

Are AS users relying only on the bone animation? So that the rig and it's smart bones would be the final thing that you can animate?

It would give us more flexibility while animating. f.ex if I get an idea that I need to bob the eyes larger while animating, just by animating the eye layer scale, it would be easier to adjust the whole animation afterward.

I don't know, maybe I'm thinking backwards on this, but I'd like to see all the animated keys of the selected layers at the same time on the timeline. Could this be a feature request?
