  • Add Keyframe??

    Posted by Henri Yates on August 7, 2021 at 10:13 am

    Hi everyone!

    I am trying to set a shortcut for the “Add Keyframe” in After Effects CC 2014.

    through the shortcut txt file in AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects\13.0 but I can’t seem to find it there or I am missing something.

    Any help? Script or something?

    I have cc 2014 and cc 2019 but I use cc 2014 because it loads up faster than cc 2019.

    Thanks

    There is a shortcut for the standard transform properties.

    Alt + (p,t,s,a,r)

    Outside of that I found this. https://adobe-video.uservoice.com/forums/911311-after-effects/suggestions/34046050-a-keyboard-shortcut-to-add-a-keyframe-to-which-eve

    I think 2019 has the visual shortcut editor, that might be able to help narrow down where to change it in 2014?

    I know about the Alt + (P, T, S, A, R) but what if you have a property like say trim path, start/end, offset etc?

    Thanks for replying though.

    There are no hotkeys for that. However, I’ve done a script to set a key at the current time to any selected properties. You can set a shortcut key to this script. So in a way, this shortcut key adds keyframe to any properties that you want. You can save this as a .jsx and place it in the ae, scripts folder.

    var proj = app.project; var projComp = app.project.activeItem;

    var selProp = projComp.selectedProperties;

    app.beginUndoGroup("Add Key");

    for(var i = 0; i < selProp.length; i++){

    var curProp = selProp[i];

    curProp.addKey(projComp.time);

    }

    app.endUndoGroup();

    Hope this helps!
