Copy and paste keyframes

You can copy and paste individual keyframes from one parameter to another. This allows you to
move or duplicate a specific effect (or part of an effect) from one clip to another. For example,
you can copy and paste an animated color correction effect or an audio filter adjustment.

You can also move or copy keyframes from one parameter to another within the same clip. For
example, you can copy the center point keyframes from a kaleidoscope effect and paste them in
the center point of a radial blur effect so that both effects follow identical paths.

You can even copy and paste keyframes within a single parameter, allowing you to create a
repeating pattern, or to move an animation from the beginning of a clip to a point later in time.

Keyframes can be copied from any parameter, including parameters in clip effects (such as
opacity, position, and audio volume), parameters in effects applied from the Effects Browser (such
as Gaussian Blur or Channel EQ), and even published parameters for a title. Any keyframes you
can select can be cut, copied, and pasted.
