Snapping Keyframes between Frames

Sometimes keyframes fall between frames and need to be snapped back. This may occur when using a function such as XScale, after importing animated material from another application, or when using the Track Editor to change the timing of an animation.

To fix keyframes that fall between frames:

1. In the Channel Editor, select a channel or group of keyframes.
2. From the Curve Functions box, select FrmSnap.

   
   

   All selected keyframes snap to the closest frame.

To snap keyframes to frames as you drag tracks:

1. Do one of the following:
   • Select Filter from the Animation Controls box and then enable Track Snap.

   
   

   • Hold Alt+Z as you drag a track with its left or right handle.
     NoteIf Track Snap is enabled and you drag a track holding Alt+Z, the opposite effect occurs: keyframes can fall between frames.

   After the track is scaled in time, its keyframes snap to the closest frame.
