Is there a way to adjust multiple keys in After Effects?

I have a complex animation with many position and rotation keys applied, but now I need to rotate the entire animation by a set amount. (5 degrees for example) I know I could pre-comp and rotate the comp, but that seems like a very messy way to do it.

I can adjust overall position by dragging on one of the keys, and shift the entire position animation, but can't see how to do this do this with rotation.

Thanks

sure. Just select all the keyframes and then adjust the value spinner to its new value, this is seen as an offset and added to all the keyframes. But be warned - you CAN NOT type in a value, this will reset al lthe keyframes. And since increasing and decreasing via the mouse is a real pain, IÂ´d suggest you create a new null object, link your layer to it, and rotate the null object 5 degrees. VoilÃ_! finished!
