Animation Tools

Insert Blank Keyframe

Reference

Mode: Draw Mode, Edit Mode, Sculpt Mode
Menu: Stroke ‣ Animation ‣ Insert Blank Keyframe (Active Layer) Stroke ‣ Animation ‣ Insert Blank Keyframe (All Layers)
Shortcut: Shift-I

Active Layer: Add a new blank keyframe to the active layer at the current frame. If there is already a keyframe at the current frame, a new blank keyframe will be added on the next frame.
All Layers: When enabled, Blank keyframe will be created on all layers, not only the active one.

Duplicate Active Keyframe

Reference

Mode: Draw Mode, Edit Mode, Sculpt Mode
Menu: Stroke ‣ Animation ‣ Duplicate Active Keyframe (Active Layer) Stroke ‣ Animation ‣ Duplicate Active Keyframe (All Layers)

Duplicates the strokes on the last keyframe by copying them to the current frame.

Mode

Active: Duplicate only the active layer.
All: Duplicate all the layers.

Delete Active Keyframe

Reference

Mode: Draw Mode, Edit Mode, Sculpt Mode
Menu: Stroke ‣ Animation ‣ Delete Active Keyframe (Active Layer) Stroke ‣ Animation ‣ Delete Active Keyframes (All Layers)
Shortcut: Shift-X

Deletes the last keyframe in the Dope Sheet or the current keyframe if you are on one.

Interpolate Sequence

Reference

Mode: Draw Mode, Edit Mode
Menu: Grease Pencil ‣ Interpolate Sequence
Shortcut: Shift-Ctrl-E

Interpolate strokes between the previous and next keyframe by adding multiple keyframes. A breakdown keyframe will be added on every frame between the previous and next keyframe.

Bake Mesh to Grease Pencil

Reference

Editor: 3D Viewport
Mode: Object and Pose Modes
Menu: Object ‣ Animation ‣ Bake Mesh to Grease Pencil…

Converts each frame of a mesh animation within a selected frame range to a Grease Pencil object keyframed strokes. The Bake Action operator computes the final animation of the selected objects with all those modifiers, drivers, and constraints applied, and keyframes the result.

Target Object: Select the target Grease Pencil object for the baked animation or a new one if there is nothing yet.
Start Frame, End Frame: Start/End frame for the baking process.
Step: Frame steps for the baking process
Thickness: Strokes thickness.
Threshold Angle: Threshold value that determine the strokes end.
Stroke Offset: Sets offset to separate strokes from filled strokes.
Only Seam Edges: Convert only edges marked as seam.
Export Faces: Convert faces as filled strokes.
Only Selected Keyframes: Convert only the selected keyframes.
Target Frame: Target destination frame for the baked animation.
Projection Type: Sets the projection type to use for the converted strokes.

Bake Object Transform to Grease Pencil

Reference

Editor: 3D Viewport
Mode: Object and Pose Modes
Menu: Object ‣ Animation ‣ Bake Object Transform to Grease Pencil

Applies all transform animation at Object level within a selected frame range to Grease Pencil object keyframes.

Start Frame, End Frame: Start/End frame for the baking process.
Step: Frame steps for the baking process.
Only Selected Keyframes: Convert only the selected keyframes.
Target Frame: Target destination frame for the baked animation.
Projection Type: Sets the projection type to use for the converted strokes.
