This command operates on a keyset. A keyset is defined as a group of keys within a specified time range on one or more animation curves. The animation curves comprising a keyset depend on the value of the -animationflag: keysOrObjects: Any active keys, when no target objects or -attribute flags appear on the command line, orAll animation curves connected to all keyframable attributes of objects specified as the command line’s targetList, when there are no active keys.keys: Only act on active keys or tangents. If there are no active keys or tangents, don’t do anything. objects: Only act on specified objects. If there are no objects specified, don’t do anything. Note that the -animationflag can be used to override the curves uniquely identified by the multi-use -attributeflag, which takes an argument of the form attributeName, such as translateX. Keys on animation curves are identified by either their time values or their indices. Times and indices can be given individually or as part of a list or range. -time 10palmeans the key at frame 10 (PAL format).-time 1.0sec -time 15ntsc -time 20means the keys at time 1.0 second, frame 15 (in NTSC format), and time 20 (in the currently defined global time unit).-time 10:20means all keys in the range from 10 to 20, inclusive, in the current time unit.Omitting one end of a range means go to infinity, as in the following examples: -time 10:means all keys from time 10 (in the current time unit) onwards.-time :10means all keys up to (and including) time 10 (in the current time unit).-time :is a short form to specify all keys.-index 0means the first key of each animation curve. (Indices are 0-based.)-index 2 -index 5 -index 7means the 3rd, 6th, and 8th keys.-index 1:5means the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th keys of each animation curve.This command edits the time and/or value of keys of specified objects and/or parameter curves Unless otherwise specified by the -query flag, the command defaults to editing keyframes.
Move amounts are absolute.
When false, moving keys will not preserve breakdown timing, when true (the default) breakdowns will be adjusted to preserve their timing relationship.
Where this command should get the animation to act on. Valid values are objects,keys,and keysOrObjectsDefault: keysOrObjects.(See Description for details.)
List of attributes to select
Sets the breakdown state for the key. Returns an integer. Default is false. The breakdown state of a key cannot be set in the same command as it is moved (i.e., via the -tc or -fc flags).
This flag explicitly specifies whether or not to include the control points of a shape (see -sflag) in the list of attributes. Default: false. (Not valid for pasteKeycmd.)
Returns the value(s) of the animCurves when evaluated (without regard to input connections) at the times given by the -t/time or -f/float flags. Cannot be used in combination with other query flags, and cannot be used with time ranges (-t 5:10). When no -t or -f flags appear on the command line, the evals are queried at the current time. Query returns a float[].
value uniquely representing a non-time-based key (or key range) on a time-based animCurve. Valid floatRange include single values (-f 10) or a string with a lower and upper bound, separated by a colon (-f 10:20
How much (with -relative) or where (with -absolute) to move keys (on non-time-input animation curves) along the x (float) axis. Returns float[] when queried.
Hierarchy expansion options. Valid values are above,below,both,and none.(Not valid for pasteKeycmd.)
When the -t/time or -f/float flags represent a range of keys, this flag determines whether the keys at the upper bound of the range are included in the keyset. Default value: true. This flag is only valid when the argument to the -t/time flag is a time range with a lower and upper bound. (When used with the pasteKeycommand, this flag refers only to the time range of the target curve that is replaced, when using options such as replace,fitReplace,or scaleReplace.This flag has no effect on the curve pasted from the clipboard.)
index of a key on an animCurve
Query-only flag that returns an int for the key’s index.
Returns an int for the number of keys found for the targets.
When used in queries, this flag returns requested values for the last selected key. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
Returns the names of animCurves of specified nodes, attributes or keys.
Valid values are move,insert,over,and segmentOver.When you movea key, the key will not cross over (in time) any keys before or after it. When you inserta key, all keys before or after (depending upon the -timeChange value) will be moved an equivalent amount. When you overa key, the key is allowed to move to any time (as long as a key is not there already). When you segmentOvera set of keys (this option only has a noticeable effect when more than one key is being moved) the first key (in time) and last key define a segment (unless you specify a time range). That segment is then allowed to move over other keys, and keys will be moved to make room for the segment.
Move amounts are relative to a key’s current position.
When used in queries, this flag returns requested values for any active keys.
Consider attributes of shapes below transforms as well, except controlPoints. Default: true. (Not valid for pasteKeycmd.)
Sets the special drawing state for this key when it is drawn as a tick in the timeline.
time uniquely representing a key (or key range) on a time-based animCurve. Valid timeRanges include single values (-t 10) or a string with a lower and upper bound, separated by a colon (-t 10:20
How much (with -relative) or where (with -absolute) to move keys (on time-input animation curves) along the x (time) axis. Returns float[] when queried.
How much (with -relative) or where (with -absolute) to move keys along the y (value) axis. Returns float[] when queried.
