Visual keyframes can display with different colors. They can be completely one color or partly colored.
When keyframes are completely colored, they are related to a clip of the same color in the Story window.
A keyframe with a colored tip indicates that it was set in either the Full Body keying mode, Body Part keying mode, or on a Character Extension. These partly colored keyframes come in three colors, which indicate the following:
Keyframe tip color | Indicates |
---|---|
Red | The keyframe is set in Full Body keying mode. It also indicates that all body parts are keyed at the current time. If you edit a red keyframe, it may turn green. |
Green | The keyframe is set in Body Part keying mode on one body part or many body parts.A green-tipped keyframe can also indicate that it is set on Character Extensions and body parts. |
Yellow | The keyframe is set on one Character Extension or multiple Character Extensions. |
In the Transport Controls window, right-click the timeline and select Visual Keys > Show Key Hint to display or hide color feedback on visual keyframes.
