Markers¶
Markers are used to denote frames with key points or significant events within an animation. E.g. it could be that a character’s animation starts, the camera changes position, or a door opens. Markers can be given names to make them more meaningful at a quick glance. They are available in many of Blender’s editors.
Примечание
Unlike keyframes, markers are always placed at a whole frame number, you cannot set a marker at frame 2.5.
Markers can be created and edited in the following editors:
Примечание
A marker created in one of these editors will also appear in all others that support them.
Типы (types)¶
Besides standard markers, pose markers are another type of markers, which are specific to armatures and shape keys. They are used to denote poses in the Action Editor mode and Shape Keys Editor of Dope Sheet.
Отображение¶
In the supported editors, if at least one is created, markers are visualized in a separate row at their bottom. This area can be disabled per editor via the menu option.
Примечание
While the markers area is disabled, markers operators are not available in that editor, and in the header the Marker menu is hidden.
Стандартный (standard)¶
Regular markers are shown as small white triangles, empty if unselected or filled if selected, and with a dashed line that covers the editor height at the corresponding frame. If they have a name, this is shown to their right in white.
3D-Вьюпорт (3D viewport)¶
The 3D Viewport does not allow you to create, edit or remove markers, but it shows their name in the Object Info in the upper left corner, when on their frame.
Pose Markers¶
Pose markers show a diamond-shaped icon in the Dope Sheet. In the NLA editor pose markers are shown as a red dashed line inside the relative action strip.

Bind Camera to Markers¶

Ctrl-B
Bind Camera to Markers is a special operator only available in the Timeline. The operator allows markers to be used to set the active object as the active camera.
To use this operator, select the object to become the active camera and select a marker to bind the active camera to. If no marker is selected when the operator is applied, a marker will be added. When an object is bound to a marker, the marker will be renamed to the name of the active object. These markers also have a camera icon next to the left of the name to easily distinguish them from other informative markers.
These markers can be moved to change the frame at which the active camera is changed to the object the marker is bound to.
