You may wonder why you would need to set a key since Studio auto keys. Indeed this is true, if you grab and move the arm, keys are set on all nodes affected. Yet, usually if you pose a character you did not adjust all the bones in the hierarchy. When you get the pose just right, you usually want a key on all the nodes. Simple rule, after getting that pose just right, double click on the figure and click the set key button before you go pose the figure at a different place in the animation.</div> </li> </ul> </li> </ul> <ul> <li class="level1 node"><div class="li"> Key Types</div> <ul> <li class="level2"><div class="li"> only doing motion? then TR (Translate and Rotate) is all you want.
