Where are keyframes for Effects?

Post by Greenlaw »

Hi,

Oops. I accidentally keyframed the angle of a Shaded effect. I didn't even you could key this property. It's kind of cool to be able to do this but it's also not what I want at the moment. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to reveal the keyframes for the Shaded effect to edit it. Can somebody tell me where to find and delete the bad key?

Thanks in advance for any info.

I sort of worked around the problem. First I went to a frame where the angle value for the Shaded effect was what I wanted and I copied the value. Then, I went to the frame where I thought the value had changed and pasted the desired value into the angle box. That seems to have fixed the problem.

I'm still wondering where the keyframes are though--it would be good to know for future reference, especially if I actually want to animate this property.

Thanks in advance for any info.

BUMP!!!!!!!!

I run into this issue ALL THE TIME! I don't get why it is not a more popular topic here on lostmarble. Anyways, I hope someone replies. I have spent hours on trying to figure this out.

Try going to edit/preferences and make sure 'consolidated timeline channels' is NOT checked.
Sorry for bad animation

Mine isn't checked. I usually just reset the style and re-enter all my colors + effects on frame zero and that works, but it gets pretty annoying.
