Línea de tiempo
The Timeline editor, identified by a clock icon, is used for manipulating keyframes and scrubbing the Playhead.
The Timeline gives the user a broad overview of a scene’s animation, by showing the current frame, the keyframes of the active object, the start and end frames of your animation sequence, as well as markers set by the user.
The Timeline includes Transport Controls, to play, pause, and skip through an animation sequence.
It also includes tools for manipulating Keyframes, Keying Sets, and Markers.
Vista Principal
The main Timeline region displays the animation frames over time.
Here you can see the Keyframes (diamond shapes), Playhead (blue handle), Scrollbar (along the bottom).
Ajuste de la vista
The Timeline can be panned by holding MMB, then dragging the area left or right.
You can zoom the Timeline by using Ctrl-MMB, the mouse Wheel, or pressing NumpadMinus and NumpadPlus.
You can also use the scrollbars, located at the bottom or the right of the editor, to pan and zoom the view.
Cursor de tiempo
The Playhead is the blue vertical line with the current frame number at the top.
The Playhead can be set or moved to a new position by pressing or holding LMB in scrubbing area at the top of the timeline.
The Playhead can be moved in single-frame increments by pressing Left or Right, or you can jump to the beginning or end frame by pressing Shift-Left or Shift-Right.
Rango de fotogramas
By default, the Frame Range is set to start at frame 1 and end at frame 250. You can change the frame range in the top right of the Timeline header, or in the Output Properties.
Claves
For the active and selected objects, keyframes are displayed as diamond shapes.
You can click to select one at a time, or select several by holding Shift, or by dragging a box around the keyframes. You can then move single keys by dragging them, and you can move multiple keys by pressing G and scale them with S.
Only Selected Channels can be enabled.
. For Armatures, this will display the object keyframes, and the keyframes for the active and selected pose bones.Marcadores

Panel emergente Reproducción
The Playback popover contains options controlling the animation playback.
- Sincronización
-
When you play an animation, the frame rate is displayed at the top left of the 3D Viewport. If the scene is detailed and playback is slower than the set Frame Rate, these options are used to synchronize the playback.
- Todos los Fotogramas
Plays every frame even if playback is slow.
- Omitir Fotogramas
Omite fotogramas si la reproducción se vuelve más lenta que la velocidad de fotogramas de la escena.
- Sincronizar con Audio
Elimina fotogramas si la reproducción se vuelve demasiado lenta para permanecer sincronizada con el audio.
- Audio
- Arrastre
If your animation has sound, this option plays bits of the sound wave while you move the Playhead with LMB or keyboard arrows.
- Silenciar
Mute the sound from any audio source.
- Reproducción
- Limit Playback to Frame Range
Don’t allow selecting frames outside of the playback range using the mouse.
- Seguir Fotograma Actual
Animation editors can be setup to always follow the time indicator as animation is being played back. Following will be done when animating and changing frame: When the cursor reaches the end of the screen, the next range of frames of the same width will be displayed.

Keying Sets are a set of keyframe channels in one. They are made so the user can record multiple properties at the same time. With a keying set selected, when you insert a keyframe, Blender will add keyframes for the properties in the active Keying Set. There are some built-in keying sets, LocRotScale, and also custom keying sets. Custom keying sets can be defined in the panels
.- Insert Keyframes (plus icon)
Insert keyframes on the current frame for the properties in the active Keying Set.
- Delete Keyframes (minus icon)
Delete keyframes on the current frame for the properties in the active Keying Set.
- Tipo de nuevos claves
Tipos de fotogramas clave on insertion.
- Claves cíclicos
Al insertar fotogramas clave en curvas trivialmente cíclicas, se aplicará un tratamiento especial a las mismas para preservar la integridad del ciclo (mayormente útil al ajustar un ciclo ya establecido):
Si se intenta insertar una clave fuera del rango de tiempo principal del ciclo, se vuelve a asignar dentro del rango.
Al sobrescribir una de las teclas finales, la otra se actualiza en consecuencia.
In addition, when adding a new curve into an action with a Manual Frame Range and Cyclic Animation enabled, the curve is automatically made cyclic with the period matching the frame range. For convenience this check and conversion is also done before adding the second keyframe to such a curve.
Auto Keying Popover
The record button (⏺) enables Auto Keyframe: It will add and/or replace existing keyframes for the active object when you transform it in the 3D Viewport. For example, when enabled, first set the Playhead to the desired frame, then move an object in the 3D Viewport, or set a new value for a property in the UI.
When you set a new value for the properties, Blender will add keyframes on the current frame for the transform properties. Other use cases are Fly/Walk Navigation to record the walk/flight path and Lock Camera to View to record the navigation in camera view.
Nota
Note that Auto Keyframe only works for transform properties (objects and bones), in the 3D Viewport (i.e. you can’t use it e.g. to animate the colors of a material in the Properties…).
- Add & Replace / Replace
This controls how the auto keyframe mode works. Only one mode can be used at a time.
- Agregar/Reemplazar
Add or replace existing keyframes.
- Reemplazar
Únicamente reemplazará los claves ya existentes.
- Sólo conjunto de claves activo
When enabled, new keyframes for properties will be inserted into the active Keying Set.
- Grabación por capas
Adds a new NLA Track and strip for every loop/pass made over the animation to allow non-destructive tweaking.

- Jump to Previous Keyframe (◆⏴) Down
This sets the cursor to the previous keyframe.
- Rewind (◀) Shift-Ctrl-Spacebar

Controles de Fotogramas
- Fotograma Actual Alt-Rueda
The current frame of the animation/playback range. Also the position of the Playhead.
