Channel Menu - Dope sheet + Action Editor mode
Delete Channels
Deletes the selected channels and all its keyframes.
Group Channels
Creates a custom group from the selected channels.
Ungroup Channels
Removes the selected channels from the group, and adds them back to the original hierarchy.
Channel Settings
Adjusts the locks and check boxes in the channels list from outside of the channels list for all selected elements at once. With Toggle Mute you could, for example, disable all selected channels at once.
The menu items should be self explaining.
These are also accessible from the Dopesheet Channel Context Menu.
Toggle Channel Editability
Toggles the locks in the channel list from their previous state to locked and back.
Extrapolation Mode
Sets the extrapolation mode for the selected F-Curves. Means how the curve acts at the beginning and the end of the F-Curve.
| Entry | What it does |
|---|---|
| Constant Extrapolation | The animation curve continues straight at the end. |
| Linear Extrapolation | The animation curve continues the last direction. |
| Make Cyclic | Makes the animation loopable. The interpolation curves are adjusted so that the first frame fits to the last frame. |
| Clear Cyclic | Removes the cyclic extrapolation. |
| Entry | What it does |
|---|---|
| Expand Channels | Expands all channels in the channel list. |
| Collapse Channels | Collapses all channels in the channels list. |
Move
Sort the items in the channels list.
Revive Disabled F-Curves
Clears the disabled tag from all f-curves to get broken F-Curves working again.
Bake Channels
Bakes the animation by adding a keyframe at every single frame.
Adjust last operator Bake Channels
| Entry | What it does |
|---|---|
| Frame Range | The frame range of the animation to bake. |
| Frame Step | Create a keyframe every nth frame. |
| Remove Outside Range | Removes keyframes that are outside of the frame range. |
Interpolation Type
Interpolation type for the animation curves.
Bake Modifiers
Bake modifiers into keyframes, and delete them.
| Entry | What it does |
|---|---|
| Frame Selected Channels | Resets the viewable area to show the selected channel keyframes. This will change the zoom to fit all in the selected chanel. |
| Discontinuity (Euler Filter) | Fix large jumps and flips in the selected Euler Rotacion F-Curves arising from the rotation values being clipped when baking physics. This operator only affects Euler rotation animation. |
