How do I go about sliding a selection of keyframes? I select a couple in the Dope Sheet, say with b for box, and then drag with middle mouse, but I lose selection. Now I can drag one keyframe (and everything keyed in that frame,) but say I wanted to drag multiple key frames. How would I do that?
I can drag a bunch in the graph editor just fine, but is there a way to limit the axis? I’d rather just adjust the timing. When I drag it lets me adjust timing and the value (not good!)
First you should set a key for all available where you want to start the dragging to avoid troubles with timing (ok in general, sometimes you don’t want to do this). Next at the top of the dope sheet in action editor mode there is a Dope Sheet Summary channel that has a key if ANY of the active channels have keys in them. If you box select this top channel, then you drag every channel that is keyed along with it. Here is an example where I box selected just that top channel and you can see all the keys are selected beneath it:
