To set the thickness of your keyframes
in the Time Slider
- Select
Window > Settings/Preferences > Preferences.
The Preferences window
appears.
- In the Time Slider section,
set the Key Tick Size preference setting.
Key thickness is measured
in pixels. The minimum key thickness is 1 pixel and the maximum
is 63 pixels.
To set the color of a curve’s keyframes
in the Time Slider
- In the Graph Editor graph
view, select a curve.
- In the Graph Editor menu
bar, select Curves > Spreadsheet.
The spreadsheet for the
selected animation curve appears in the Attribute Editor.
- Choose a Curve Color and
turn on Use Curve Color.
All the curve’s keyframes
in the Time Slider are now the Curve Color you selected.
To set the color of individual keyframes
in the Time Slider
- Select
Window > Settings/Preferences > Color Settings > Animation.
- Choose a Time Slider Tick Special color
and click Save.
- In the Graph Editor,
select the keyframe(s) you want drawn in the Time Slider
Tick Special color.
- In the Command Line or Script
Editor, enter the keyframe MEL
command with the -tickDrawSpecial(-tds) flag
as follows:
keyframe
-tds on
and then press on the
number pad.
The keyframes you selected
and set the -tds flag for are
now drawn with Time Slider Tick Special color
in the Time Slider.
For more information
on this flag, see keyframe in
the MEL Command Reference documentation.
Note
- The Time Slider Tick Special color
preference overrides the key color set by the Curve
Color attribute.
- If you have multiple keys at the same
time in the Time Slider, and one of those keys has its -tds flag set to on,
then the Time Slider Tick Special color will
take precedence over the other key colors.
