Copy animated bones

Hello
I don't know if or how often this question was made here, so let me simply ask it, - again...
How do I copy an animation into a new anme file.
You see, I've got a walking dog, well maybe not perfect but it walks.
Sadly I need a long haired shepherd dog, and this one is short haired.

So, how can I copy the animated bones to the new file?

Is there a way to copy these bones to more than one character?

Have I to create for every new scene a new walkcycle, (if dog or human being, or similar)?

(Yes..., Finally I started to learn anime studio, - it was about time after all these years!) :oops: :P :lol:

You can have an animated skeleton, duplicate it, and create new shapes and attach them to the already animated skeleton in frame #0.

To import stuff from one file into another, it needs to be on top of the hierarchy (in a group or bone layer). Go to "Import AS object", choose file, choose layer to import.
