Pretty simple question. I've created 4 frames for a specific joint that I want to play repeatedly over a 90 frame animation, and I don't want to go through the other 86 frames changing parameter dials one by one
So how can I copy and paste keyframes in the Edif Keyframes window ?here doesn't seem to be such an option, but this is such ludicrously basic functionality, it just has to be there somewhere...

Ctl-C for copy & Ctl-V for paste, or highlight & click-drag (cut & paste), or Alt+Click-drag (copy & paste)

ctrl+c and ctrl+v didn't seem to do anything. They were the first things I tried, of course
alt+click+drag seems to work great though, thanks

Hey - just another thought at what may be the hang-up with using CTL+V:
Not sure about P7, - - but in P6 and earlier, in order to use CTL+V to paste, sometimes you have to already have values stored in those cells in the Animation Palette (you can't always paste into blank cells).
So, to paste a range from another frame in the Animation Palette, just highlight the target range and hit any of the "store" menu buttons first, then use CTL+V to paste your copied values into that same range.
Sorry, but don't know the rules of why it works sometimes and not others.
