Hi

I was wondering if there is a way to key just the selected attribute with a hotkey (I can't find it in the Setup for Hot Keys)

I know that say with E you set a key to the rotation of the selected objects, but I sometimes working on just one attribute alone (say rotateY) and would like just to quickly (withouth having to right click on it) set a key on it

Any ideas?

Thanks

Goosh

hey goosh, you can customise the behaviour of setKeyframe to drop keys only for selected channels in CBox. set it to All Keyable Attribs to get that control.

or write a little script

=======================================
global string $gChannelBoxname;
string $mainAttributes[] = `channelBox -q -selectedMainAttributes $gChannelBoxname`;

for($attr in $mainAttributes)
setKeyframe -at $attr;
=======================================

don't have maya here so there may be a little fault, but should work (i think)

Is it possible to set a hot key to toggle x-ray, on-off?
