How do you Nudge keyframes???
Posted by Robyn Rhodes on March 6, 2009 at 11:08 pmIs there a way to nudge key frames in the timeline the way you can in After Effects? Please say yes! Please?
Thanks a ton,

March 7, 2009 at 12:42 amThe default shortcuts for moving forward and back one frame are g and f, but you can reassign them to the page up/down keys if you want using the command manager. There is not shift+nudge function to go forward/back 10 frames, but if you copy these scripts into your Library/Scripts folder you can assign them the shift + page up/down hotketys and have the same behavior as in AE:

March 7, 2009 at 3:45 pmThanks very much Adam. This is very helpful in general. I’m assuming there’s no way to nudge the actual keyframes in the timeline? My work around has been moving the playhead in the timeline with G and F and then moving the keyframe(s) to the playhead, clearly not as efficient as a keyframe nudge.I read somewhere that back in R9.5 or so, you could nudge keyframes with the arrow keys.
Many thanks,
Robyn

March 7, 2009 at 6:11 pmweird, it works with 10.5 and 11 on 10.56…. ….which Timeline?… It works in the Timeline Window and in the Animation layout but not the timeline in the Standard layout

March 7, 2009 at 6:26 pmHey Brian,
I tried the animation layout and that didn’t work out either. I like to have my timeline on a separate monitor fullscreen. Doesn’t work there either. Must be that 10.0 is hosed in that respect. Here’s the post that I found earlier with bemoaning the same thing.

Moving the play head and then keyframes is so bad. It would be totally ripper if the timeline worked the way AE does, or even close.
Thanks,
Robyn

btw, you should do the free 10.1 update.
