Modify groups of keyframes
There are many ways you can modify keyframes to create simple or complex animations. In
addition to modifying individual keyframes as described in the previous section, you can also
modify keyframe groups, effect curves (the line segments between keyframes), or the entire set
of keyframes for a given parameter, and you can make all of these changes with great precision.
Select and modify multiple keyframes
1 To select multiple keyframes in the Video Animation Editor, the Audio Animation Editor, or
directly in the body of the clip (for audio level keyframes), do one of the following:
•
Shift-click more than one keyframe.
All intermediate keyframes are selected. You cannot select nonadjacent keyframes.
•
Drag a selection rectangle around the keyframes you want to select.
Note: In the Video Animation Editor or Audio Animation Editor you can select a range by
dragging with the Select tool or the Range Selection tool. To select a range of keyframes
displayed in the clip body (such as audio keyframes) you must use the Range Selection tool.

•
To move the group to a different place in time: Drag any individual keyframe horizontally.
