Copy keys

You can copy keys to the keys clipboard.

Note When copying and pasting keys that include multiple animation curves to multiple attributes, pay particular attention to the order that you select them, as this will impact the order in which they are pasted. When copying keys from multiple attributes in the Graph Editor or Dope Sheet, select the attributes from the outliner—not the view area—of the respective editor.
