I'm trying to manually offset some fcuves in the graph editor, multiple objects with the same animation on one channel. I need to have the curves visible to see what I'm doing, and I would like to move one curve at a time. Problem is all the keyframes on every curve are editable like this so I'm constantly moving or selecting the wrong keys. In soft you could select and move the curve as a whole item which made the task so much easier, is there nothing like this in Houdini? To be able to edit a selected curve whilst having all the other visible.... Tell me I'm missing something please.

cheers,

Andi

You can right click on the channel list to lock parameters, which makes them unselectable but still visible as dotted lines. You could lock everything except the channel you want to edit to get a similar effect.

Hi Inchang,

thanks for the reply, seems a tad clunky to do it this way as I would be locking and unlocking various curves every 3 seconds... Ideally it would simply be a "click to drag" the curve under the cursor, or failing that perhaps we could have the "select all keys" only affect the curve under the cursor. Perhaps I should put in a feature request.

Thanks though,

Hi, double clicking on a key is supposed to select all keys in that channel, which would let you more quickly move the entire channel. This seems to be broken at the moment, but I will update this thread when it is fixed.

Double-click and ctrl+shift+double-click have been fixed in 21.0.730
