Scale Time
Track View > Dope Sheet > Time: Dope Sheet toolbar > Scale Time button
Scale Time scales a block of time. You can scale down to fit into less time, or
expand it to fill more time. Scale Time doesn't use the Track View time slider
as the scale origin reference; it always scales from the first frame of the key
selection.
Procedures
To scale time:
1
In the Dope Sheet Editor, on the Time: Dope Sheet toolbar, click
Scale Time.
2 In the controller window, click item labels to highlight tracks for time
editing.
3 Drag out a time block in the Key window, or use an existing block.
4 Move your cursor over the active time block in the Key window. The
cursor changes to show you when you can scale.
