  • Stretching many keyframes on the timeline

    Posted by Piotr Raczko on December 4, 2012 at 1:43 pm

    Hi,

    I’m pretty sure I saw this in a tutorial but I forgot.

    I need to stretch many keyframes on many layers on the timeline. Exactly slow down the whole animation? I can select the keyframes, but what then? How do I stretch them?

    Thanks very much!

    Select all your keyframes, hold down alt, click the last keyframe and move it to your new end position.

    Hi Piotr

    When they are selected you should simply be able to click and drag them to wherever you need them.

    Hope I helped.

    This is, of course, in After Effects Help.
