Move keyframes in time
The first keyframe always uses the Start Keyframe icon and the last keyframe always uses the End Keyframe icon .
Use Selection Tool or Pen Tool to do one of the following:
In a Timeline panel, select one or more keyframes and drag to the desired time.
In the Effect Controls panel, select one or more keyframe markers and drag to the desired time.
In the Effect Controls panel, a vertical black line extends above and below a selected keyframe. You can use the line to align the
keyframe with places on the time ruler or with other objects. If keyframe snapping is enabled, this line turns white when the keyframe is
aligned with certain types of objects. You determine the types with the Snap To control.
Determine keyframe snapping
In the Effect Controls panel, keyframe snapping pulls a keyframe into alignment with another object when it is dragged near the position of that
object. You can specify whether to enable keyframe snapping in the Effect Controls panel, and determine the types of objects to which keyframes
snap.
1. Click the panel menu button at the upper right of the Effect Controls panel to open the panel menu.
2. Select Snap To. Check the objects, such as Video Keyframes, to which you want keyframes to snap. Deselect objects to which you want no
snapping. Return to this submenu to make each selection.
Copy and paste keyframes
You can copy keyframes and paste them either to a new time in the clip’s property or to the same effect property in a different clip, using the Effect
Controls panel. To quickly apply the same keyframe values at another point in time or in another clip or track, copy and paste the keyframes in a
Timeline panel.
Copy and paste keyframes in the Effect Controls panel
When you paste keyframes into another clip, they appear in the corresponding property in the target clip’s effect in the Effect Controls panel. The
earliest keyframe appears at the current time, and the other keyframes follow in relative order. If the target clip is shorter than the source clip,
keyframes that occur after the target clip’s Out point are pasted to the clip but don’t appear unless you disable the Pin To Clip option. The
keyframes remain selected after pasting, so you can immediately move them in the target clip.
1. In the Effect Controls panel, click the triangle to expand the effect to reveal its controls and keyframes.
