Timeline
These settings control things in the Timeline.
- Allow Negative Frame
Playback and animations can occur during negative frame ranges.
- Minimum Grid Spacing
The minimum number of pixels between grid lines.
- Timecode Style
Format of timecodes displayed when not displaying timing in terms of frames. The format uses '+' as a separator for sub-second frame numbers, with left and right truncation of the timecode as necessary.
- Zoom to Frame Type
Defines what time range (around the cursor) will be displayed when the View Frame Numpad0 is performed.
- Keep Range
The currently displayed time range is preserved.

The number of seconds specified in the Zoom Seconds field will be shown around the cursor.
- Keyframes
The number of animation keyframes defined in the Zoom Keyframes field will be shown around the cursor.
Keyframes
These settings control Keyframes which are the building blocks for animations.
- Visual Keying
When an object is using constraints, the object property value does not actually change. Visual Keying will add keyframes to the object property, with a value based on the visual transformation from the constraint.
- Only Insert Needed
This will only insert keyframes if the value of the property is different.
- Auto-Keyframing
- Show Warning
Displays a warning at the top right of the 3D Viewport, when moving objects, if Auto Keyframe is on.
- Only Insert Available
This will only add keyframes to channels of F-Curves that already exist.
- Enable in New Scenes
Enables Auto Keyframe by default for new scenes.
