Description gordie.lachance+dev 2018-01-15 17:33:10 UTC
Hi!

What about having an "expand selection of n frames" command for frames in the timeline; to polish the timing an animation ?

Eg. I have those frames selected :

| |X|X| |X| |X|

Then when expanding that selection of N frames (you should be able to type the number of frames you want); let's say 2; I would get

| | | |X|X|X|X|X|X| | | |X|X|X| | | |X|X|X|

Thanks for your work !
BTW is there a place other than the bugtracker where animation things are discussed ?

Thanks for the suggestion, Gordie. (Sorry it's been such a long time in bugtracker purgatory!) 

I'm not sure there is enough to go on here yet to implement this change. Can you give us some more information about your use case? That'll help us come us with a concrete design plan.

Let's say I have a shot with 12fps.
I want to slow down a specific action (10 images) in it; but not the whole shot.
So I'll need to double, or triple manually every of those 10 images.

"Expand selection of N frames" would allow me to do this is a single action.

Thanks for your comment!

Automatically switching the status of this bug to REPORTED so that the KDE team
knows that the bug is ready to get confirmed.

In the future you may also do this yourself when providing needed information.

I believe the feature you're looking for is selecting all of those frames, then right-click, then Hold Frames -> Insert Multiple Hold Frames, then choose either 1 (for 2x slower animation) or 2 (for 3x slower animation). It will have the same effect without duplicating data.

Can you please check that function and confirm that it works the way you need it?
