Viewing Spline Keyframes

You can use the spline key controls on the RotoPaint tab to view whether there are keyframes set for the spline of your stroke/shape. Do the following:

1.   Select a stroke/shape on the stroke/shape list.
2.   If there are spline keys set on your stroke/shape, the key boxes are highlighted blue and display where you are currently on the timeline with regard to the keyframes that are set already. You can move backwards and forwards between the keyframes using the arrow keys .
3.   If you want to add or remove spline keys for the stroke/shape in a selected frame, use the Add and Delete buttons.

To view keyframes on the timeline

You can view different types of keyframes you’ve set, either automatically or manually, on the timeline. If you’ve set keyframes on the RotoPaint tab, these are visible on the timeline when you have the RotoPaint tab open in the properties panel. Similarly, if you’ve created transformation keyframes on the Transform tab, you can see those keyframes on the timeline when you have the Transform tab open.

If you want to delete a key that is set to animate a position, right-click on the stroke/shape and select delete key > spline.

If you want to delete a key that is set to animate a transformation, right-click on the stroke/shape and select delete key > transform.

If you want to delete a key that is set to animate attributes, right-click on the stroke/shape and select delete key > attributes.

If no other keys are set for the selected stroke/shape, the frame marker on the timeline turns from blue to the default color.
