    Is it possible to slip a clip without slipping the keyframes on that clip??

    Building a bunch of repetitive GFX. Just noticed that replacing some of the elements from one GFX build to another, timing of clips were changing(was replacing the video track, but the source in point is off.) Now I need to slip the clips by a few seconds, but need the key-framed action on those clips to stay in the same place on the timeline. Make sense?

    Cheers,

    Move the clip and then move the keyframes the same amount in the Keyframe editor. Or consider behaviors- much much easier to tweak than keyframes.

    Yeah, I know that one.. I’ve got quite a few to tweak so was hoping for an alt-apple-drag or the like that would allow the clip to move, but keyframes to stay locked in the same position in the time line.
    Something like that would have been a huge time saver for me.
    I’ll probably fix the first, then copy/paste the fixed key frames to the subsequent ones.
