What steps do I follow to convert an .anme file that is at 16fps to 24fps. I know how to set the fps in Project Settings, but I don't want the speed of the motion to change.
It hasn't worked on a simple test file, which has one step motion on each of four seconds. I tried scale animation changing the endframe from 64 to 96, but the stretching is inconsistent. I verified that project settings starts with the animation being 64 seconds. Rather than getting the action over 24 frames, it is 36 frames.
Can someone give a step by step?

"Rescale Keyframes"
If you have 6.x version of AS. You have a bug to contend with.
A workaround for 6.x is to make sure that the Start Frame # is bigger than the New end frame #.
1- Go to Preferences and turn on Consolidate time line channels.
2- Move all the animation points ahead beyond the last frame of the retimed animation, in other words, out of the way of the retimed animation. Note: make sure you have a keyframe at the start of your animation, if not add a keyframe before moving the points.
3- Rescale Keyframes. note: subtract 1 from the actual location of "New Start Frame"
4- Go to Preferences and turn off Consolidate time line Channels.
5- Delete keyframes from unused layers and you're done!

Thanks, I made a note of the instructions for next time.super8mm wrote:"Rescale Keyframes"

It's a relief to know that there was a bug. I just reanimated it for now.
Do you know if it is possible to rescale actions, other than putting them all in the main timeline, rescaling, and recreating as actions?
