Dope Sheet

Hi Wayne, would each character require their own dope sheet?  Are there any videos with you using a more up to date version of blender using a dope sheet?

    Hi Yisrah,
    I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but let me try to help.

    The Dope sheet will show you all the keyframes for ALL the objects/characters/armatures all at once.
    Where as the Action Editor will only show you the keyframes for that one object.

    (The Action Editor is a sub editor of the Dope Sheet.)

    If you want to work on one character - use the action editor

    If you want to edit more than one thing at a time - use the Dope Sheet.


    This course will hopefully explain the newer UI.

    Hope that helps.
