Posts: 66 		Is it my imagination again or have I spotted some Muvizu clips here with several characters all moving together in step (ie. a synchronised dance). I suppose have to record each character going through each step in the sequence and then try to tidy everything up in the timeline. Unless there are any handy shortcuts to this process ?

At the moment you need to record each character separately - although you can align the animations more easily with Cue Points.

The devs are looking into copy/pasting timelines and other ways to make this easier - but it might be a while before it's in.

Take care,
-Jim.

Pardon me if this has being answered somewhere else but, any updates on this?
So far the very limited capabiities of the timeline is the only stopping block I have found to move on with my project. I'm not only talking about copy/paste but in addition, save, increase or decrease length, variable speed, etc.

hopefully that should help you get the results you're looking for.
