from 7:03 he borrows pose data from a none keyed frame, Wayne copies it then pastes the pose information onto a later keyed frame and saves the pose, this is not working when i try to do it.

Question

i go to an unkeyed frame, frame 29 and i select the antenna press l to link, all my keys show selected in the dopesheet like Wayne's screen but when i ctrl c then paste on keyed frame 33 it pastes the pose from a keyed frame, frame 27, and not the unkeyed frame i was borrowing the pose from. It takes the antenna data from frame 27 in this case and pastes it over frame 33 instead of taking the antenna pose data from frame 29 despite my cursor being on frame 29 when i try to copy it.

edit: he has two icons in his blender 2.79 that he uses to copy and paste the pose data, i dont have those icons in blender 3.3.1 so i was just using ctrl + c and ctrl + v

Hi @puddles ,

You are right, that doesn't work the same anymore.

You need to hover your Mouse Pointer over the 3D Viewport and then you can use CTRL+C, CTRL+V.:

Or you can find it in the Pose Menu.

HI Puddles,
Yeah the UI was cleaned up, so you have to use the hot keys (or the pose menu) but it's easy to remember CTRL C and CTRL V (Ctrl shift V for flipped)
Spikey has an extra add-on enabled called "Copy Attributes Menu" which is great for everything except animation.
(I'm just mentioning that in case you are wondering you can't see that pop up anywhere)

With your particular issue, just make sure your mouse is over the 3d viewport when you are copying and pasting.

If it is over the timeline, it will copy the selected keyframes and paste them where you moved the playhead to.
I think that is what you may have done.
