    Is there a way to select TWO keyframes and SWITCH them/toggle them.

    Say keyframe ONE (at like 20 seconds) is my object on the left and keyframe TWO is my object on the right (at 30 seconds).
    Now I want the SECOND keyframe to be where the FIRST was and the FIRST where the SECOND was. is there just a function to switch those two keys or is the only way to have the marker on one key and drag the other there and then remember the time where the other key was and put the other key there.

    hi michael,

    select the keyframes you want to switch and choose animation>keyframe assistant>time-reverse keyframes.

    Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks a lot.

    Is there a shortcut I could press for this or a way to apply a shortcut to this very handy option?
