Moho Forum

i always find shifting key frames very toublesome especually there are a lot of point aniamtion and switch layer key frames set on sub layers of a complex character. I have been using a plugin to review all the layers that have keyframes set but it still very troublesome becasue you have to check each layer in order to show the key frames on the timeline, and you have to un check them to make the key frames disappear.

If you know a easier way to do this? thank you in advance.

Are you currently using LK_ToggleKeysFilter per chance?

By adding two lines it would show all filtered layers on timeline: Of course with multiple characters this is not a great solution. I've got the code for that too somewhere, but don't have the time to dig it up atm.

Adding the two lines like this:

Hi Lukas, sorry to dig up this ol' thread but i just wanted to ask, what line of code i would have to add to REMOVE all the Timeline Visibility again when switching the tags off

Basically with your addition it almost does what i want, it shows the stuff on the timeline automatically but when i press it again it keeps the little checkmarks of all the layers. Just thought i'd ask Thank you!

Hello there,
did you find a solution yet? Im about to do an animation with a lot of point animated parts so im very curious to optimize this workflow.

With this script tool by A. Evseeva, you can do many things, and one of them is to show all animated layers in the timeline.

https://mohoscripts.com/script/ae_keytools

To do that, use the buttons: V v X

V: shows all the animated layers in the timeline.
v: shows only those animated after frame 1
X: don't show any layer in the timeline

Some features of the tool may not work correctly because it is a little bit old, but those 3 buttons work perfectly, I use them all the time.

Yea i have the Keytool. It's nice and all but it requires two clicks instead of one OR instead of one shortcut to show me the stuff
