3ds Max Animation :: Automatically Moving Time Slider / Adding Keys
Apr 25, 2012
How to make so that when you move any object in scene(3ds max), your time slider is moving, for example to 3 keys and creates the keys.
If its an script option, Give me some code for example of doing something like that, using functions of slider, so i can logically came to solution in this hard stuff(will take time i guess).

Is there a setting for the time range where I only see frames that have keys? say I have the keys spaced out over time for my animation. but now I want to just veiew the keys and I don't want to use < and > to run through all the keys and I don't want to have hundreds of frames to scroll through..
like a Show-key frames only. type of thing.

For some reason when I scrub through my animation, it runs really slow. And it has nothing to do with my computer itself. It is the particular file. I tested this by opening up one of my others (i saved in iterations) and they all scrub just fine. All I was doing was animating with a rig, so there isnt any extra polygons or whatever. And on top of that, it worked just fine before I exited the program earlier, I even playblasted it and everything, and then I looked at the playblast later and decided I wanted to change something, reopened the file, and the timeline has been chugging ever since. I tried opening and closing maya already.

I'm editing an animation that I have, but when I drag it in to the Layer Menu, it appears on the left side of the screen, off the stage. Is there a way to select all layers, and move them all at one time?

In Lightroom 3 when you moved through images these modify keys (+ and -) would always remain at the temperature slider. It seems to now always default to exposure. Is there anyway you can change this?

I have been working in PSP since PSP 7 so I am pretty familiar with the program. In PSP X4 when I go to adjust the opacity of a raster layer using the opacity slider on the layer palette toolbar. I click on it and I can't use the arrow keys to adjust the value. My arrow keys have no effect on the opacity slider at all. how I can get it working? It has never worked for me in PSP X4.

Can I zoom into the time slider? When moving keys using the time slider they do not go to the frame I would like because the my current length is 3000 frmaes. The frames just won't snap to each indivual frame so they can be placed properly.
I'm wondering if you can zoom into the time slider, so all 3000 frames are not visible across the bar. If you could zoom in to, say, only have a couple hundred frames showing in the time slider, the snapping when dragging keys would be more accurate.

I have Razer nostromo keypad for lightroom and photoshop. I bought it because of Paddy for lightroom but it's TOO massy and hard to mapping the shortcut. Moving those sliders without the mouse is impossible without the paddy right now... Is there any other program to control those sliders by keypad?

why does a layer move more slowly when using the arrow keys on the keyboard if the layer is a 'floating selection'? my Gimp moves layers MUCH more quickly when using the arrow keys if I go to 'to new layer' first! is this a problem or to be expected?

I'm trying to determine how to change the color of an object based upon a custom attribute slider. It would only need to change between 2 colors. I know this can be done by simply autokeying but using a slider would be more useful for my situation.
Is there a way to do this? I've been playing with wiring a simple cube's material but am not sure how to do this.

I am trying to synch several biped characters to an HD background video I have placed in the environment slot. The problem is that when I scrub the animation slider or hit the play button, Max cannot play the background video in real time. When I hit play, the video remains frozen on whatever frame it was last on, but then updates to the correct frame when I hit the stop button.
It is pretty difficult to get the timing right on the foreground biped animation without a real time background reference. I also tried a lower res version of the background video (standard 720 x 480 DV), but that also does not play in real time. Is there any way to get max to play the background video in sync i.e., updating the frames in real time? Is there a way to improve max performance (ideal settings?)for a background video? Would a Tiff sequence play quicker than a .mpg or .mov files? If so how do set up an .ifl for playing an image sequence?

In Illustrator CS6 I can't adjust how far a line moves when I move it using the arrow keys. I've gone to Preferences>General>Keyboard Increment and changed the amount, but the line moves the same distance no matter what I put in. Neither Snap to Grid nor Snap to Point are turned on.

I seem to have accidentally animated Exposure Value (located within the Exposure Control).
I don't know how to eliminate the animation and even though I try to manually reset the Exposure Value by turning of Autokey and then setting Exposure Value to the setting I want, I keep encountering a persistence of the animation.
What I mean is that I might reset the Exposure Value to zero, but then when I scrub the track, the Exposure value starts to change. I cannot figure out how to fix this as no matter where I reset the Exposure Value, when I scrub back and forth on the track, the Exposure Value changes to other values...
I've tried looking in the Curve Editor, but haven't been able to find keys. I also don't see any keys in the track.

I'm new to the animation aspect of 3Ds Max and I have a running cycle that is stationary but would like to figure out how to get it to move forward? I didn't use Footsteps in the Motion Panel to have a base to work with and modify it. What are my options? I have the weekend off from work to mess with it and if I have to do the hard part of moving the biped forward myself, I'll do so. Would I be able to create Footsteps and attach them to my biped with the animation I have? Or is there a system, option, etc. that I should set up in the beginning before animating that would allow me to move the feet and the rest would follow using the biped?

I've been having this issue with Maya's timelines since my first usage of 2010 (on Windows) and now 2011 on Mac. The problem is an odd one, My keys start to show up "between" two frames in my timeline. This makes selecting and moving, and judging timeline distances super difficult. If I open up the graph editor, I get the same results.
I'm running Maya 2011 x64 Educational SP1 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on an 2009 iMac. I'm not sure this has any bearing on what is happening in my timeline, as I've had similar results on a Windows machine a few years ago.
I've been working on this scene for a few weeks now, and only recently did this start happening, near the end of the timeline in the scene. I am working at 24fps REALTIME, which is necessary for the project. I have also tried scaling the timeline up and won, but I get no relief from the problem.

I made a stupid mistake and started lip-syncing a long piece of animation at 25 FPS instead of 24 which I need to use. I just set it to 24 and it put all of my keys on frames like 10.68 or 54.22, it has become really frustrating to animate with. I was wondering if there's some way to snap these keyframes to solid keys instead of having them on decimals, I don't care if the animation is slightly off, I can fix it later.

How can set that an object only moves per 1 pixel increments when moving using the arrows keys?I am designing a few web banners right now and when i move objects with the arrow keys to have them placed exactly, they jump with more then 60 pixels in one go making this exercise a bit useless.

I am currently working on a game and am pretty new to the world of Maya ( 2D animator gone rogue!), I have some animation that I am cutting and I have noticed something I find strange. There seem to be multiple keys inside one frame ( see pic). I am guessing this is something extremely obvious that I as a new user do not understand, how to edit these keys within the frame?

There is no motion in my meshes when using set key or auto key.
So lets say I have a cube and set a keyframe at 1 and move it a little to the right and set a keyframe at 13, between 1 and 13 there's no motion from 1 to 13, just it jumping straight to 13. I hope that makes sense, I've tired going to Animate setkey options and checked current manipulator handle, didn't worked.

I made a walk cycle (walking forward). I saved the .bip file and what I want to do now is load the walk cycle and loop it a couple of times so that I can fine-tune a couple of things. The problem is that when I load the .bip file from the "Load Motion Capture File", I get many unwanted keys, as if I were loading a MoCap file or something. I want the same keyframes I used in the original animation, just looped. Been playing with Key reduction settings for a bit, but couldn't figure out how to do what I need.

I am having trouble with setting rotation to other then linear for the IK Controls, the FKs work fine. Is this some limitation, or option that I am missing ? Also, the keys are displayed as diamonds instead of the usual squares, so I guess there is some lock which I cannot find.
