Pasting keyframes without losing cycle settings?
Posted: Wed Jul 20, 2016 6:19 pm
Let's see if I can explain what I mean.
Say I have a cycle of 48 frames. The keyframe of frame 48 is therefore identical to the keyframe on frame 1. If I change the keyframe on frame 1 and want the cycle to be correct, I must paste keyframe 1 to keyframe 48. But that automatically loses the cycle because pasting makes the keyframe 48, which bears the cycle, revert to a normal keyframe (smooth, linear, etc). Which means I have to tell frame 48 to cycle again.
So, my question is: is there a way to paste a keyframe so that it pastes all attributes whilst keeping the cycle?
If there is, hooray. If there isn't, I kind of wish for this as a feature because sometimes, especially while working at complex cycles which need lots of testing and fine tuning, I find myself forever having to repeat the cycle settings.
