    Hi there

    I was just wondering if it is possible to change the place of one keyframe without then changing the timing of the keyframes after that. Like say you have someone jumping up then walking around, if you want to slow down the jumping you would have to bring out the keyframe further in the timeline, however you would have to move all the other keyframes up. Also when you have lots of layers all working alongside this layer it can get quite complicated when moving all keyframes in sync………does anyone have any tips on the best ways to do this?

    Thanks in advance! Hope it makes sense,

    Dan

    I may be misunderstanding, but it sounds like all you have to do is select multiple keyframes at the same time. You can select multiple keyframes from many layers and move them all at once; just drag a box around them with the cursor or shift select them one by one. Also, one handy trick is to select a group of keyframes, then hold dpwn the option key (mac) as you drag the last one. This will keep the interval between the keyframes the same as you change the overall timing.
