If you hold down the ALT key while using the Manipulate Bones tool, the tool acts like the Transform Bone tool and only rotates 1 bone. You don't need to switch to the Transform Bone tool when you only want to rotate 1 bone. Command+F for Mac or Control+F for Windows is useful for freezing bones, but if you are on a vector layer, command/control+F freezes all the points - point motion and curvature. The usual, slow method is to command/control+A to select all the points and then choose the Transform Points tool and click in a blank area of the workspace to keyframe all the points (while also hoping that you don't jiggle the points when you click), and then repeat the process for point curvature. Note: command/control+F does NOT make key frames for bones when you are on a vector layer, which is great. When you want to freeze the pose of a selected bone, you don't need to go to the Bone Menu and choose Freeze Selected Bones to make a keyframe. Instead, locate the channel(s) for the selected bone on the timeline. Recall that the icon(s) for the selected "bone" is red. Double-click on the red line to create a keyframe at that spot. That's it! Note: the playhead does not have to be on that frame.I hope somebody found these tips useful. Feel free to share other time-saving tips.
