  • Selecting or changing only y position key frames

    I have a bunch of key frames, but if I wanted to make them all align to a single horizontal line, would there be an easy way to go about doing this?

    Right click the Position property and select Separate Dimensions. It will split the position into X, Y (and Z if it’s a 3D layer).

    Then you can select, copy/paste only one dimension of the Position animation and apply it to many layers. Works great.

    Only thing is it that it appears to remove easing (if you had any prior to separating dimensions), so you’ll need to re-do the easing before copying the new Y position, for example.
