Copying Selected Template Contents into Your Animation


When you drag templates from the Library window, you can open the Timeline Drag & Drop Preferences to select the template contents that you want to copy into your animation.

To copy selected template contents into your animation:

1. In the Library, select the template you want to copy.

2. Drag the template to the Timeline window and place the template on top of the elements where you want to place it.

You must select the same number and hierarchy of elements as are in the template. Otherwise you won’t be able to complete the drag operation. You can check the contents of a template. [Control]-click the template and select Properties.

3. Press [Control]+[Alt] and then release the mouse button. The Timeline Drag & Drop Preferences dialog box opens.

4. Select the properties you want to copy to the animation and click OK.
