Keyframe Preview

fr0sty wrote on 9/27/2016, 9:27 PM

I couldn't find the "Hey Magix!" thread for update requests... but this is one that would help with keyframing a lot. In each effect/track motion animation timeline, being able to see a preview of where you are when scrubbing across the keyframe timeline would help immensely, so we can do all of our keyframe animating from that timeline instead of having to put in a keyframe, scrub forward on the main timeline so you can get a video preview of what you just did, go back to the keyframe timeline, have to figure out where you want to put the next keyframe blindly, using the clip's length as the only reference point, because there is no visual reference without going back to the main timeline... it would be so much easier if there was a live preview direct from the keyframe timeline. Perhaps in another smaller preview window, perhaps from the main timeline preview, anything would help. 

 

If there is any way (or any better way) to pull this off already, please let me know. The ability to skew/distort from within track motion would be great too.

I do not know whether I have understood you correctly, but this button

That did it, thanks. However, some more advanced image warping tools would be cool to have in the track motion, like skew, warp, grid deform, etc.
