, [exists=boolean], [history=boolean], [image1=string], [image2=string], [image3=string], [moveByFrame=int], [name=string], [snapOnFrame=boolean])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
retimeKeyCtx is undoable, queryable, and editable.
This command creates a context which may be used to scale keyframes
within the graph editor using the retime tool.
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
