Posted by Dwayne Neckles on December 17, 2007 at 4:04 amIs there a way to stagger frames in ae.. instead of manually dragging all the frames then command clicking to deselect then dragging the rest..

then hold the Command Key (CTRL) and drag the last one… this will do an “accordion” stretch

December 17, 2007 at 12:33 pmSelect the layers to be sequenced, in the order that you want them to be sequenced. then choose animation>keyframe assistant>sequence layers. you can set overlap duration and cross disolve parameters if needed…

December 19, 2007 at 7:26 pmit may be that the frame durations are the length of the comp. ae has a setting for duration of imported still images, they can be a set length (like 5 seconds) or set to use the duration of the last comp that was created.
you can trim the length of all the images at once by selecting the layers, position the time cursor to the point you want to trim them and then pressing Alt+] (Windows) or Option+] (Mac OS).
then you should be able to sequence the layers with the keyframe assistant.
