Keys displayed as box graph (Dope Sheet - Edit Keys mode)
Key Creation
Keys are created using a variety of methods. Keys can be created by turning
on Auto Key, moving the time slider, and then transforming the object or
adjusting its parameters. Keys can also be created by right-clicking the viewport
time slider to access the Create Key dialog. Keys can be created directly in
Track View using Add Keys. Finally, keys can be created by turning on Set Key
mode, moving to a desired frame, posing the object, then clicking Set Key.
Key Display
Keys are displayed as points on the function curves, or as boxes on the Dope
Sheet. Keys on the Dope Sheet are color-coded for easy identification. When
there are multiple tracks keyed at one frame, the boxes appear with bands of
color to indicate the shared key types. Key coloration is also used to show soft
selection of keys. Subframe keys (keyframes that fall between frames) are
indicated as narrow rectangles within the boxes.
