Hi,

I have to move some of the animations around in my scene. However, if I select it all only the last keyframe moves.

Any idea how I move the whole thing? Tween et al?

thanks.

Could you post the fla by any chance? And explain in more detail what you want to move and how… 🙂

well I have a scene with buttons on and I need to get a new button in there and move the current ones to the right. But when I try to select the layer and shift it all across, only the last keyframe moves.

Right, I know what you need to do. 🙂

Open up the fla. Underneath the main Timeline, you’ve got a couple of little buttons, with coloured squares on - if you mouse over you should get Alt text like “Onion Skin” appear. The third one of these squares is “Edit Multiple Frames”, and this is the one you want. Click it.

You should now see a grey highlight box appear on the frame numbers. Position this to start at the beginning of the menu tween, and the end is at the last keyframe.

Now, just use the Arrow tool to select all the menu items. Hopefully, all the frames in the Timeline should be highlighted. You can then move the menu items around to wherever you’d like them to be. 🙂
